Breast augmentation is a surgical procedure applied for the patients whose breasts are small genetically or have become smaller due to atrophy. Implants are placed to increase breast size.
Breast Implants
Slicone gel filled breast prostheses are used for the augmentation of breast tissue. Especially polyurethane-coated silicone gel implants are high quality silicones with the lowest probability of breast hardening and are round shaped like natural breast tissue. We use the mentioned prostheses in our hospitals. In these prostheses, even if the there is a tear in the implant's outer shell, the gel silicone does not dissolve and maintains its shape.
Who is a good candidate for Breast Augmentation Surgery?
● Breast augmentation is a plastic surgery procedure suitable for patients who have disproportionately small breasts compared to the rest of their body.
● Patients whose breast tissues have been removed with mastectomy are also suitable for the surgery.
Preoperative Evaluation
The patient and the surgeon determine the best location for incision together. The most common incision is the inframammary approach. Unrealistic expectations, not choosing the right implant and healing problems can cause problems. Therefore, it is important that the surgeon and the patient find a middle ground about the surgical choice during the evaluation process before the surgery. If there is also sagging in the breast tissue, breast lift procedure (mastopexy) may also be applied.
Surgical Procedure
The operation takes approximately 1,5-2 hours and is performed using general anesthesia. In the process of placing the implants in the breast tissue, incision location may vary depending on the demands of the patient and the surgeon and the type of the prosthesis. A 4-5 cm incision is made in order to insert the implant. The implant can be placed under breast tissue or under the chest muscle. The submuscular placement method is usually preferred because it provides a more natural appearance, even though it causes some pain in the early postoperative period,.
