The Breast Augmentation Surgery Procedure explained:
Many women have made the choice to create the shape they have always dreamed of through breast enhancement surgery. Confident, sensual and beautiful-simply more of what you already are.
In short, a Beast Augmentation Surgery is a procedure that enhances and increases the size of a woman’s breasts utilizing a silicone or saline beast implant. The breast implants are placed under the muscle of the chest wall to improve breast shape, size, and position.
A plastic surgeon performs this procedure under general anesthesia. The procedure takes approximately one hour. A two inch incision is made in the crease underneath the breast and an implant is placed behind the chest wall muscle. The breast size is thus increased.
What to expect before the surgery procedure:
You will meet with your surgeon in consultation to discuss your goals and desired size. Your Doctor will examine you and possibly make suggestions about implant shape, size and type. All of your questions will be answered. Lab work will be ordered. You will be given a written fee quotation and allowed to select your surgery date if you desire.
Postprocedure:
Upon awakening in the recovery room, you will have an elastic bandage around your chest. You will be allowed to go home one to two hours following the procedure. Your surgeon will see you in the office approximately two days following the procedure and you will be placed in a sports bra. The sports bra should be worn for three weeks post-operatively. Most patients return to work at one to two weeks post surgery. No heavy activities or lifting is allowed for three weeks. Soreness usually resolves within three to five days. Bruising and swelling should be minimal.
As with an surgical procedure it is always a good idea to do your research and ensure you fully understand the procedure before going ‘under the knife”. Making sure you understand the surgery, its risks and having realistic expectations about the results will help to make the surgery a success.
