Breast Augmentation -
"Breast Enlargement" |
|
Breast augmentation's general purpose is to increase the size
of a woman's breasts, making them both larger and fuller.
Breast enlargements are done using a salt-water based solution
called saline, which is put into a silicone shell and inserted
inside the breast. There is no evidence that breast implants
affect fertility, pregnancy, or a woman's ability to nurse.
IF A SALINE IMPLANT BREAKS, THE SALT WATER SOLUTION IS
HARMLESSLY ABSORBED BY YOUR BODY. |

Breast augmentations are
performed in an outpatient surgical center and generally take
between 1 and 3 hours. An incision is made in the crease below
the breast, around the areola, or under the armpit, and the
breast tissue is lifted, creating a pocket within that area.
The implant is centered beneath the nipple and filled with the
saline solution. The incision is then stitched up, and light
gauze bandages are applied to the area.
RECOVERING FROM THIS SURGERY
Patients who have breast augmentations generally feel
sore and tired for a few days following the surgery. About 48
hrs afterwards they are up and about, controlling any pain
with medication that was prescribed by the doctor. Stitches
are removed in 7-10 days, and the swelling within the breasts
takes around three to five weeks to subside. Scars will be
pink for at least six weeks and will eventually begin to fade,
but will not disappear completely. |
