Breast enlargement

What is Breast enlargement? 

Breast enlargement, also known as breast augmentation or boob job, is an operation that is often preferred to enlarge the breast size, even though the procedure can also be efficient in balancing the breasts and/or keeping their volume after extreme situations such as childbirth.

How is Breast enlargement surgery done? 

Implants are usually the essential components of the breast enlargement procedure. Implants are filled with either saline or silicone and they mimic the natural breast tissue. During the breast enlargement procedure, the surgeon places the implants at the backside of the breast tissue. The operation takes place under general anesthesia and lasts for about an hour.

The reasons for having Breast enlargement

Although many women want to have breast enlargement surgery for the mere sake of enlarging the size of their breasts, there can be other purposes in having the operation as well. Breast enlargement surgery can make the breasts more symmetrical, and modify the diminution of the breast size after pregnancy or major weight loss, both of which are valid reasons for many women to prefer the operation. Last but not least, a lot of women want to have a breast enlargement operation to improve their self-confidence. Even though breast enlargement pills or breast enlargement cream are usually promoted for similar purposes, the surgical operation is the only one that guarantees results.                                      

Before the Breast enlargement operation

Before the surgery, the patients are recommended to consult their surgeon on what type of silicone will be used in the operation, the desired size and feel of it. It is also important to be aware of some misconceptions about the operation. For Instance, unlike common knowledge, the breast enlargement operation actually cannot prevent the sagginess of the breasts. They also last for about 10 years, rather than a lifetime. Last but not least, the breastfeeding process can be challenged by the implants as it is usually harder to breastfeed with implants.

After the Breast enlargement operation

Following the operation, the patients might experience soreness or swell for a while, as well as bruising. Patients are recommended to wear a sports bra or bandage to support the implants. Extreme physical activities are forbidden for approximately two weeks. Harsh physical contact should also be avoided during the healing process.

What are the risks of breast enlargement?

Breast enlargement surgery might cause pain, infection, and a slight change in sensation. It Also leaves permanent scars but they become less visible in time.
