At all times, elastic, beautiful breasts have been a special source of pride for the beautiful half of humanity. It emphasizes the health and attractiveness of its owner and, of course, attracts the views of the opposite sex.
However, women do not always boast large, elastic breasts. Today, this problem is easily solved with the help of breast augmentation. The duration of the operation takes only a few hours, and the result will please you for a long time.
Indications for breast augmentation
The main indications for breast augmentation are:
- Small breast size.
- Age-related changes.
- Rapid weight loss.
- Deterioration of volume and shape after birth.
- Acquired or congenital asymmetry of the mammary glands.
Breast augmentation technology
Prior to surgery, the patient must undergo a preliminary consultation. In addition to the examination of a plastic surgeon, you must consult an anesthesiologist.
Breast augmentation is classified as a major surgical procedure under general anesthesia. That's why you need to go through a series of tests before performing breast augmentation.
These are, first of all:
- Biochemical and general analysis of blood and urine.
- Chest fluorography.
- Examination by a gynecologist and oncologist-mammologist.
- Electrocardiographic examination.
An analysis is also performed for the possible occurrence of an allergic reaction to the drugs used. If you are taking certain medicines, be sure to tell your doctor.
Before the operation, the goals of the operation are discussed and implants and fillers are selected.
A few weeks before the operation, the patient should stop smoking and drinking alcohol. Before breast augmentation surgery, it is better to go on a low-calorie diet that helps cleanse the body.
Breast augmentation is performed on the basis of endoprosthesis. The implant is located under the pectoralis major muscle or under the mammary gland.
The following methods of operation are distinguished at the point of access:
- Installation via axillary access.
- Installation via periareolar access.
- Install by accessing submammary.
The type of access is determined by the plastic surgeon individually. In most cases, the incision is made in the areola or armpit.
Rehabilitation after breast augmentation
Immediately after the operation, the patient is transferred to the ward. She is under medical supervision for 5 days. After two weeks, doctors removed the postoperative sutures.
In the first days after the operation, the formation of hematomas and swelling in the suture area is possible. This problem does not require additional treatment; soon they pass on their own.
After the operation, a special tightening bandage is applied on the chest. After removing the sutures, it is necessary to wear a "medical" bra to maintain the correct shape of the breast. Such underwear should be worn for several months.
Pain and tenderness may be present immediately after breast augmentation. Over time, all these sensations disappear.
The rehabilitation period is short. Within a week after the operation you will be able to do ordinary housework. You will be able to evaluate the final result in a few months. This is due to the fact that at this time the implant takes root and a new mammary gland is formed.

Breast augmentation is not performed in the following cases:
- Problems with blood clotting.
- Age (surgery is not performed on minors).
- Oncology.
- Trend of scars.
- Chronic diseases.
- Acute infectious processes.
- Neoplasms in the mammary glands.
- Allergy to the components of the implants.
