  1. Breast Enlargement Breast enlargement is a cosmetic procedure that enhances breast size. This is a common procedure for women who are unhappy with their breast size. It is also an option for women who have lost breast tissue due to weight loss or breastfeeding.

  2. Reasons for Breast Augmentation Size 1 Women may want larger breasts to improve their body image and feel more confident with their appearance. Symmetry 2 Some women have breasts that are different sizes or shapes, and augmentation can help create a more symmetrical look. Shape 3 Breast implants can help improve the shape of the breasts, making them appear fuller or more rounded. Reconstruction 4 Breast augmentation can be used to reconstruct breasts after a mastectomy or other surgery.

  3. Types of Breast Implants Silicone Saline These are the most common type of breast implant. They are made of a soft, gel-like material that feels very natural. Saline implants are filled with sterile salt water and feel firmer than silicone implants. They are also less expensive than silicone implants, but they may be more prone to wrinkling or rippling.

  4. Choosing the Right Implant Consultation 1 A consultation with a plastic surgeon is the first step in deciding if breast augmentation is right for you. Assessment 2 The surgeon will assess your medical history, breast size and shape, and desired outcome. Implants 3 Together, you and your surgeon will choose the right size and type of implant.

  5. Procedure Overview Anesthesia Breast augmentation is usually performed under general anesthesia. Incision The surgeon will make an incision in a discreet location, such as under the breast, in the armpit, or around the areola. Implant Placement The implant is placed either under the muscle or on top of the muscle. Closure The incision is closed with sutures or surgical staples.

  6. Recovery Compression Garment You will need to wear a compression garment for several weeks after surgery to help reduce swelling and bruising. Pain Management Pain medication can be prescribed to manage discomfort. Activity Restrictions You will need to avoid strenuous activities and heavy lifting for several weeks after surgery.
