What is Augmentation Mammoplasty?
Augmentation Mammoplasty, commonly known as breast augmentation, is a surgical procedure that involves the placement of implants to increase the size and improve the shape of the breasts.
What does the procedure involve?
The procedure involves making incisions either around the areola, under the breast, or in the armpit, inserting breast implants either under the breast tissue or behind the chest muscle, and closing the incisions with sutures.
Is the procedure painful?
The procedure is usually performed under general anesthesia, so the patient will not feel any pain during the procedure. However, there may be some discomfort during the recovery period.
What is the recovery time for Augmentation Mammoplasty?
The recovery time can vary depending on the extent of the procedure, but most patients can return to work or school within a week and resume normal activities within a few weeks.
How long do the results of Augmentation Mammoplasty last?
The results of Augmentation Mammoplasty are usually long-lasting, but weight gain, aging, and other factors can affect the appearance of the breasts over time. Breast implants may also need to be replaced at some point in the future.
