Breast Enlargement
Breast enlargement or augmentation is a cosmetic surgical procedure that aims to increase the size of the breasts or restore their natural size. It is classified as one of the most common and most widely practiced cosmetic surgeries, as it began to spread in the early twentieth century.
Breast augmentation is used when the growth of the breasts weakens or in some cases in which the breasts lose their appearance, especially after pregnancy or breastfeeding, and when the woman ages, as the breasts lose their firmness after these periods of life.
This process is done by inserting implants into the breast, or by placing implants in cases of drooping breasts, in addition to lifting them.
For breast enlargement in Turkey, the patient’s plastic surgeon will take care of all the stages of the operation by ensuring a balance sheet that takes care of the patient until full recovery. He will also provide all the requirements for the operation at reasonable prices in order to meet people’s needs.
Is breast augmentation surgery suitable for you?
Femininity is often associated with beautiful breasts, but the breast may lose its shape or size and thus its aesthetics many times, especially after significant weight loss, pregnancy, or breastfeeding. The breast may also have a different appearance, such as asymmetry that occurs in distortions.Therefore, women resort to breast enlargement surgery to get rid of these problems.
Breast augmentation is a cosmetic surgical procedure that aims to increase the size of the breast by inserting implants into breast pockets.
Many cases of breast hypoplasia are accompanied by drooping breasts and sagging skin. Here, we resort to tightening the breast and lifting it using implants, which helps in getting rid of sagging skin tags. The nipple is also replaced to obtain firm breasts.
Breast implants have different types, and this difference results from changing the nature of the filling. We find implants filled with silicone gel, and others filled with local solution.
Breast implants filled with silicone gel give a similar appearance to natural breast tissue, and are therefore used in the majority of breast implant cases.
Usually, the plastic surgeon uses implants that are pre-filled with a new generation breast implants are available and has life time warranty cards.
Breast Enlargement Surgery Process
The breast enlargement process takes place in several stages, and the starting point is performing a set of medical examinations that qualify the woman for surgery, such as a complete blood test and mammograms.
The doctor also gives some pre-surgery instructions. These directions include stopping birth control pills for 15 days before surgery, and stopping aspirin, anticoagulants, or anti-inflammatories at least a month before surgery. It is also advised to avoid pregnancy in the year following the operation.
After talking about pre-surgical procedures, we move on plastic surgeon practice room for face to face consultation.
First, the surgeon and anesthesiologist give the necessary medical consultations, then the doctor provides all the important information about the surgery and what follows.
Next, the surgeon agrees with the patient on the surgical strategy and location of the filling in accordance with the patient’s desire and condition, then the patient undergoes general anesthesia, and the surgeon begins his work by choosing the type of surgical incision, as there are three types of incisions, including the incision around the bark, which is in the shape of a crescent when The lower edge of the areola. The second type is the incision under the breast, and the third is the incision through the armpit.
In the case of breast augmentation accompanied by a lift, the vertical incision is used. "Inverted T" is mandatory
Each type of incision has its advantages and disadvantages, and the appropriate type of incision is determined according to each patient’s expectations and anatomy. The style of surgery will also be suitable for the location of the future scar, even though it is hidden in a natural intersection or wrinkle area.
The length of stay in the hospital must reach two nights in order to ensure complete 24-hour monitoring, and the patient needs a recovery period of up to 7 days (6 nights) within an equipped hotel to ensure complete comfort and enjoyment.
As for the place of implantation of the implants, they can be placed in two areas: either in front of the pectoralis major muscle. This method is used when there is a thickness in the breast gland, which allows the implant to be completely removed and its edges made invisible, or it is placed behind the pectoral muscle, and this method is considered better for For thin women who do not have enough thickness in the breast gland to make the implant invisible.
After completing the surgery, a compression bandage is placed and appropriate fluid drainage is provided to avoid hematomas.Breast augmentation surgery takes about one or two hours.
In the days following surgery, as happens in most surgeries, the patient experiences some side effects, including mild pain, especially for the fillings behind the pectoral muscle, but with some painkillers that the doctor prescribes, the pain goes away.
It is possible that some swelling and bruising may occur, which will gradually disappear.The final appearance of the breast shape and scars is obtained 3-6 months after the operation.
There are also many recommendations that must be followed after surgery, such as stopping work for 8 to 12 days, stopping all sporting activities for two months, and wearing a bra without wires all the time (day and night) for 6 weeks.
As for the serious complications that may occur, breast augmentation surgery is characterized by a high safety rate, and the complications are very rare and mild, such as thrombophlebitis and pulmonary embolism. A hematoma can also occur within 24-48 hours after surgery, and then we need a room. During operations, in addition to the possibility of serous or lymphatic effusion, we need to perform surgical drainage of fluids. Infection and sepsis may occur immediately after surgery for preventing these complications and often antibiotics are prescribed by doctor.
