What is Breast Enlargement?
The chest is considered one of the most important elements of beauty and self-confidence in women. In light of the increase in plastic surgeries, breast augmentation (or a boob job) with silicone implants is one of the most cosmetic operations preferred by women.
Many opt for breast enlargements because breasts may become smaller for various reasons such as pregnancy, lactation, aging, and an increase and decrease in weight. In some other cases, the breast may not develop into the intended size, as a result of sagging or lack of proper body growth.
In such situations and with the operations that are performed for the purpose of enlarging and filling small breasts, it has become possible to have a breast that is beautifully contoured, firmer, larger, and fuller.
Types of Breast enlargement (Implant, fat injection)
Breast augmentation is a surgical procedure that aims to increase the size of the breast or return the breast to its normal size suitable for the body. Breast augmentation can be done in several ways, including:
- Breast augmentation with silicone implants.
- Breast Enlargement using a saline solution.
- Breast augmentation with autologous fat injection.
The first method is the best and most popular method in the world because it feels silky and natural. It is done by placing soft silicon gel pads under the breast tissue. The incisions to insert the silicone pads are made through the breast, the armpits, or the areola.
The saline enlargement is made by pumping a saltwater solution instead of the gel pads, however, this procedure has the risk of leaking afterward.
The third option is a fat injection, through which fats from other parts of the body are purified and then transferred to the breast. The probability of permanence however ranges from 30 to 75 percent.
How is Breast Augmentation performed?
Breast enlargement is performed as follows:
Clinical Consultation
During the clinical consultation, the doctor checks the size of the breast with a screening instrument, which is a tool that measures the breast in millimeters, and the percentage of sagging in the breast is also determined, as well as the small millimetric nuances between the breasts.
Choosing the right silicone pad
In terms of shape, there are round silicone fillings and teardrop-shaped fillings, and in terms of texture, there are soft fillings and coarse fillings. Next, the size of the breast is taken into account in relation to the normal body size. When it comes to volume, breast implants are measured in cubic centimeters (CC), and there are different sizes of breast implants ranging from 100 to 700 cubic centimeters, but the most commonly used sizes range from 250 to 500 cubic centimeters.
Ensuring the patient’s safety and setting the date for the operation
There are many tests that the patient must undergo before any surgery to ensure the safety of the operation, and then the day of the operation is determined and planned.
Performing the surgery
After preparation and sterilization, the patient goes through the stage of anesthesia, and then a 3 – 5 cm incision is made under the breast folds, as it is the best place to insert silicone implants. It is worth noting that the incision often disappears or is almost completely hidden with the time passing after the operation.
Then the silicone implants are inserted through a completely sterile funnel so that the implants do not touch anything, and this is with the intention of increasing sterilization, the place of the implant is between the breast muscles and the breast tissue so that it takes the advantages of being behind the muscle and does not move permanently.
Waking up and recovering.
A few hours after awakening from the procedure, the patient leaves the facility and is advised to follow the doctor’s recommendations & instructions.
