What is breast augmentation surgery?
Breast augmentation surgery is a procedure designed to improve the size and shape of the breasts. This technique involves inserting implants, usually made of silicone, to increase breast volume. It is commonly performed as part of cosmetic surgery.
During this procedure, an incision is made under the breasts or in the armpit to allow insertion of the breast forms. These can be positioned either in front of or behind the pectoral muscle, depending on the desired result. Implants differ in shape, size and composition, offering multiple possibilities for patient customization depending on the incision and placement techniques chosen.
Why choose breast augmentation?
There are many reasons for undergoing breast augmentation. The most common reason for this is that patients feel their breasts are too small and want to increase their volume. Breast augmentation can help correct this complex. Women suffering from breast asymmetry may also be motivated by breast augmentation, should they opt for augmentation of the smaller breast to regain a balanced bust.
How does breast augmentation work?
Preliminary consultation
A preliminary consultation is mandatory before your breast surgery. It gives you the opportunity to discuss your desired results with the surgeon, and to ask any questions you may have to clarify certain points. For the surgeon, the purpose of this interview is to understand your motivations for requesting this type of plastic surgery, but also to guide you in your choice of implants. During the same appointment, the surgeon will explain the procedure and the post-operative care that accompanies your breast augmentation.
How it works :
The procedure is performed under general anesthesia and lasts around 45 minutes. Your surgeon takes the utmost care and attention to detail to ensure that your cosmetic surgery is of the highest quality. You can return home the same day after resting in one of our rooms.
After the operation
Following surgery, it is crucial to follow your surgeon’s advice, which includes:
– Activity restrictions and what is permitted
– Post-op care guidelines
– Possible signs of complication to watch out for
– The recovery period, usually estimated at between four and seven days.
What are the risks of breast augmentation?
Opting for a renowned clinic such as the Claris Clinic, located near Verviers, considerably minimizes the risk of complications. Nevertheless, all surgery carries certain risks. With regard to breast augmentation, here are the main potential risks:
- Infection: in rare cases, the incision may be a source of infection.
- Implant: there is a risk of implant leakage, displacement or rupture, which could necessitate replacement of the silicone implant.
- Scarring: the scar may be larger or more visible than expected, although there are a number of treatments to minimize this complication.
- The usual risks associated with general anaesthesia.
Which implants for your breast augmentation in Verviers?
Choose your implant: shape, material and volume
The shape of your breast implant
There are several shape options for your breast forms:
– The round implant: It gives a rounded appearance to the breasts.
– Anatomical implant: The teardrop shape of this implant gives a more natural result.
– The ergonomic implant: this prosthesis is less filled than the round implant, minimizing the risk of the prosthesis turning over while ensuring a natural result.
The materials used in your breast prostheses
There are different material options for your breast implants.
Silicone is the most commonly used material because of its ability to adapt easily to your morphology and offer a natural feel.
Saline-filled prostheses offer an alternative to silicone and allow easier adjustment to your breast size. However, they are less frequently chosen, as they can provide a less natural feel, which can be uncomfortable for some women.
The volume of your breast implant
The size of breast implant you choose will be determined by your aesthetic preferences and the cup size you wish to achieve following surgery. It’s essential to discuss these aspects with your surgeon so that he or she can advise you on the right size for your body type.
Prosthesis placement during breast augmentation
The incision can be made in 3 places, depending on the prostheses chosen:
- Peri-areolar incision : the scar is placed on the areola of the breasts
- Inframammary incision This is the most frequently performed incision. The scar is located in the fold under the breast
- Axillary incision : this is made in the hollow of the armpit
Three placement options are generally considered for breast augmentation implants: – In front of the pectoral muscle– Behind the pectoral muscle– The dual plane
How long can I keep a breast implant?
The longevity of breast implants is estimated at between 10 and 15 years. It is necessary to schedule regular consultations with your plastic surgeon to monitor the condition of the implants and ensure that you are getting used to them. At the same time, this allows early detection of any complications.
