Breast Augmentation
Many women who want to achieve the full and healthy breasts of their dreams are interested in breast augmentation aesthetics. Breast augmentation can be performed with many different methods. Depending on the person's request and breast structure, surgical or non-surgical applications can be preferred. Fat injection method is among the options that can be preferred in non-surgical applications. Silicone breast prostheses are preferred in breast augmentation operations. Factors such as the expectation of the person, skin thickness, amount of breast tissue and sagging are decisive in the selection of the prosthesis to be used.
F.A.Q.
The incisions in breast augmentation surgery are usually quite small. For this reason, the scars expected to occur after breast augmentation surgery are also very small and thin. Over time, the color of these scars turns pink and then white. In this process, the tissues also flatten and become indistinct. The scars also become almost invisible. At the end of 1 year, the scars are fixed in a way that is not obvious.
Various non-surgical applications can be performed for breast augmentation aesthetics. Breast augmentation can be performed without surgery with methods such as fat injection and the use of fillers. However, it is not possible to get as effective results as breast prosthesis in the fat injection method. 4-6 sessions may be required for breast augmentation with fat injection. It should be said that filling applications other than these applications are not permanent and are not preferred due to the high risk of infection.
Many women consult physicians for various reasons for breast augmentation surgery. This application can be applied for many reasons such as having small breasts, a disproportionate situation between the hips and breasts of the woman and many more.
In order to avoid a negative situation, it is possible to be hospitalized for 1 day and be discharged the next day with the approval of the doctor.
You can return to daily life 1 week after the breast augmentation operation. After 1 month, any desired activity can be performed.

Breast Augmentation Surgery: Needs, Methods, and Outcomes
When Is Breast Augmentation Surgery Performed?
Breast augmentation surgery is a popular choice for many women for various reasons. Some of these reasons include having small breasts, experiencing changes in the breasts after childbirth such as sagging or shrinking, asymmetry or disproportion between the breasts and hips, and the need for breast reconstruction after breast cancer surgery.
Silicone Breast Prosthesis
Silicone breast prostheses are specially designed implants used in breast augmentation surgeries. They are used to mimic breast tissue and achieve the desired fullness. They can come in round or teardrop shapes. The choice of prosthesis depends on the patient's breast structure and personal preferences.
Placement of Breast Prostheses: Which Area Should Be Preferred?
The area where the prosthesis is placed in breast augmentation surgeries is determined based on the patient's needs and the surgeon's preferences. Options for incision sites include the armpit, inframammary fold, periareolar, and transumbilical approaches. Each incision site has its own advantages and disadvantages, and the surgeon selects the most suitable one based on the patient's condition.
How Long Does Breast Augmentation Surgery Take?
The duration of breast augmentation surgery typically ranges from 1 to 2 hours. This duration may vary depending on the complexity of the procedure and the patient's overall health. After the operation, the patient is usually kept under observation in the hospital for about a day until they recover from the effects of anesthesia and then discharged.
Recovery Process After Breast Augmentation: What Should Be Considered?
During the recovery process, it is important for the patient to follow their doctor's recommendations. Some pain and swelling may occur in the first few days, but these are usually temporary. Patients can typically resume normal daily activities after about a week, but should avoid strenuous exercise and heavy lifting. The recovery process may vary depending on the patient's overall health and the complexity of the surgery.
Breast augmentation surgery can enhance a woman's self-confidence and improve her quality of life. However, like any surgical procedure, breast augmentation surgery carries risks and potential side effects. Therefore, anyone considering such a procedure should consult with a specialist beforehand.
