Breast augmentation surgery, also known as mammoplasty, is a cosmetic surgical procedure that involves the insertion of breast implants to enhance the size and shape of the breasts.
Breast augmentation surgery is done for various reasons, including to enhance the size and shape of the breasts, to improve symmetry, to restore breast volume after weight loss or pregnancy, or to reconstruct the breast(s) after mastectomy.
Just as all surgical procedures are associated with some sorts of risks, breast augmentation surgery too carries some risks. These risks include bleeding, infection, adverse reaction to anaesthesia, scarring, implant leakage, rupture or deflation, changes in breast or nipple sensation, and the need for revision surgery.
Preparing for breast augmentation surgery includes several steps, such as selecting a qualified and experienced plastic surgeon, undergoing a thorough medical evaluation, stopping smoking and avoiding medications that can increase the risk of bleeding, and making necessary arrangements for recovery and aftercare.
Before breast augmentation surgery, you will have a consultation with your plastic surgeon to discuss your goals and expectations, examine your breasts, and determine the best approach and implant size and type for you. You may also need to undergo preoperative tests, such as blood work and a mammogram.
During breast augmentation surgery, you will be under general anaesthesia. The surgeon will make an incision in the breast tissue, insert the breast implant either under the chest muscle or directly behind the breast tissue, and then close the incision with sutures.
After breast augmentation surgery, you will need to rest and limit physical activity for several days to weeks. You may experience discomfort, swelling, and bruising, which can be managed with pain medication and ice packs. You will need to wear a supportive surgical bra and avoid sleeping on your stomach or side for several weeks. You will also need to attend follow-up appointments with your plastic surgeon to monitor your progress and address any concerns or complications.
