What is Breast Augmentation Surgery?
Breast augmentation surgeries are applied as a result of women wanting to reach the desired breast sizes. Although it can be done through fat injections, the implant method is more commonly preferred. Although it is widely used today, breast augmentation surgery with implants is more preferred because it achieves the desired result and is permanent. This surgery is performed with a silicone gel breast implant placed behind the breast tissue.
Who is Breast Augmentation Applied to?
Breast augmentation can be applied to people who are not satisfied with their breast size, who have sagging breasts from birth or later, and who have sagging breasts after the birth process. Before breast augmentation operation, it is beneficial for the person to check whether they have breast cancer or their predisposition.
Preoperative Process
Before the operation, the person should stop smoking 14 days before the surgery. If the person does not have a problem by having some tests done before the operation, the date and process of the operation are determined. Before the surgery, the person is told to stop taking blood thinners.
Breast Augmentation Surgery
Breast augmentation is an operation performed under general anesthesia. This surgery should be performed by a specialist physician in a hospital environment. The operation takes an average of 2 hours. During breast implant surgery, the incision can be made from the chest ring, the lower line of the chest or, rarely, the armpit.
Post-Surgery Process
The person may need to rest in the hospital for a day after the surgery. It is recommended to remove the dressing on the day after the surgery and use a surgical bra or sports bra. In the 2-3 weeks after this surgery, pain and swelling may be felt in the chest. Stitches are removed after 10 days and stitch scars heal in an average of 6 weeks. Over time, with the disappearance of edema, the chest takes its full shape. This process can take 4-6 months.
