Breast augmentation, commonly referred to as breast implant surgery, is a cosmetic procedure aimed at increasing breast volume and enhancing breast shape through the placement of implants. This popular surgery is often chosen by individuals looking to improve breast symmetry, increase fullness, or restore breast volume lost due to aging, weight loss, or pregnancy.
The procedure involves the insertion of implants, which can be either saline or silicone gel-filled, into the breast tissue. Implants are typically placed either above or below the pectoral muscle, depending on the patient’s anatomy, desired outcome, and the surgeon’s recommendations. Incision options include under the breast, around the areola, or through the armpit, with the choice of incision affecting scar placement and recovery.
Breast augmentation can significantly enhance body proportions and boost self-confidence. Recovery usually involves some swelling, bruising, and discomfort, which can be managed with pain medication. Most patients return to normal activities within a week, though strenuous exercises and heavy lifting should be avoided for several weeks. Breast augmentation results in enhanced breast size and shape, contributing to a more balanced and proportionate appearance.
