Breast Augmentation (with implants)
Breast augmentation (with implants)


The most common method in breast augmentation is the placement of silicone implants, which have been selected to meet the requirements and wishes of the patient.
Preoperatively, in addition to the classic examination, the patient undergoes a mammogram to rule out any other breast pathology. Breast augmentation requires general anesthesia. Its duration is 1-2 hours.


In breast augmentation plastic surgery with silicone implants, the implants are placed either under the mammary gland, or under the pectoralis major muscle or even better under the muscle and the existing mass gland (dual plane).
Postoperatively, the patient is required to wear a special bra to properly support the breast. After breast augmentation, it is recommended to abstain from intense exercise for a month, while the return to work is estimated at 5 to 10 days, depending on the severity of the work. It can be performed regardless of the possibility of pregnancy, since the woman is perfectly capable of breastfeeding after such an operation.

So:
- The pain is minimized
- Recovery is immediate
- The shape of the breast is more natural since the fascia covers the insert
- Because the implant does not come in contact with the breast, the possibility of a wrinkle capsule is reduced.

There are four options for placing breast implants:
- Above the muscles and below the existing breast
- Under the muscles
- Dual plane: half up and half down
- Subfascial: under the fascia of the pectoralis muscle.
The incision can be made in the areola, in the armpit or in the armpit. If we want the incision to look minimal, then it is done in the subastina, an area that allows us not to cut the mass gland. The scar that eventually becomes is about 4 cm and after a few months is barely visible when the breast augmentation is done properly.
In most cases the patient stays in the clinic for one night. No longer stay is required and essentially follow-up is necessary in the first postoperative hours. In the first weeks after the operation, the breast will be more sensitive for 2-4 weeks. It is advisable to avoid sexual intercourse during this period. The woman can return to work after a few days. If the work requires physical exercise, another week of recovery is recommended.
The scars are initially slightly red but gradually their appearance improves and as time goes by they become indistinguishable.
Some pain and swelling may be present for a few days to a few weeks respectively after surgery. Expect the scars to become indistinguishable over time, but they will not disappear completely. Especially you who know where they were will see them.
You will wear a compression bra or sports bra for extra support. If you do not have a physically demanding job, you may be able to return to work within a few days. Avoid strenuous activity – anything that can increase your pulse or blood pressure – for at least two weeks.
You need to tell me your preferences for the size, feel and appearance of your breasts. This will be followed by a discussion of the types of implants – smooth or rough surface, round or anatomical (tear), with saline or silicone – as well as options for surgical techniques.
Before deciding to have surgery, consider the following:
Breast augmentation can change the size and shape of your breast. Surgery can improve your body image and self-esteem. But keep your expectations realistic and do not expect what you see in magazines. It will remain just your breasts increased in size.
Also, your breasts will continue to be affected for years after the augmentation. Weight gain or weight loss can change the way your breasts look.
