Breast Augmentation
Breast augmentation, also known as mammoplasty, is a surgical operation in which implants are placed under the breast tissue to add volume to the breasts.
Breast augmentation surgery can increase the self-confidence of women who are not satisfied with the size of their breasts. It may be preferred due to conditions such as pregnancy, aging, or because of asymmetry in breasts.
Breast Augmentation: Procedure
Breast augmentation surgery is performed under local or general anesthesia. The surgeon can operate from 3 different places. An incision can be made from the breast fold, from the armpit, or around the nipple. With the incision made, the breast tissue is separated from the muscles and connective tissue. A small pocket is formed in front of or behind the pectoral muscle where the implant is placed in this way. The implant is placed aligned with the nipple. There are two types of implants: If saline implants are used, they are filled with saline. There is no need for such a procedure for a silicone implant. At the end of the surgery, the incisions are closed with sutures. In some cases, skin glue is used for this process. The patient is usually discharged on the same day.

Breast Augmentation: Recovery
After breast augmentation surgery, the incision area is bandaged. Support bras are recommended for comfort during the healing. In this way, swelling can also be prevented. Usually, the patient is discharged a few hours after the operation. The surgeon sets an examination date. It is important to follow the instructions given until this date. It is necessary to clean and care for the incisions and to protect the bandages. These instructions may vary depending on the surgery performed and the surgeon. The patient should avoid heavy exercise in the first days, so the risk of bleeding in the implanted area is reduced. It is normal to see swelling and mild pain for a few weeks.
