1. Breast Augmentation Surgery – Enhances Body Contours & Shape of Breasts

2. Breast Augmentation is a surgical procedure that restores breast volume to achieve better symmetry. • This cosmetic procedure, also called augmentation mammoplasty, is desired by many women who want to improve the shape of their breasts. • Breast augmentation is also performed on women who had their breasts removed or disfigured due to breast cancer. • This procedure is generally done in an outpatient setting or in a hospital. • Doctors perform this operation under general anesthesia. • In some cases, local anesthesia is given. The patient is given medicine to numb the pain.

3. The Procedure • While performing mammoplasty, Breast Augmentation Baltimore doctors place breast implants. • By inserting an implant behind each breast, doctors increase the patient’s bust line by at least one cup size. • In the most common method, surgeons make an incision on the underside of the breast. • The surgeon then places the implant through the recess. A scar may become visible, especially if the woman is thin and young.

4. Other methods are: • Placing the implant through a cut under the arm. • By making a cut through the edge of the woman’s areola (the dark area around the nipple). • This method, however, may result in loss of sensation around the nipple and cause issues with breast feeding.

5. Breast implants may be placed precisely behind the breast tissue or at the back of the outer layer of chest muscles. The type of implant used will have a bearing on the following: • How much pain the patient will experience after the procedure • The overall contour of the breast • The hazard of the implant bursting or leaking in future

6. The question often asked by women is what type of implant is best for mammoplasty. • According to doctors performing Breast Augmentation in MD, both saline and silicone implants provide excellent results. • Some doctors opine that silicone implants are softer and feel more like normal breast tissue. • The flip side is silicone implants are more expensive and require a longer incision. • Saline implants, on the other hand, are less expensive, require a smaller incision, and the size can be easily adjusted by surgeons.
