Breast Augmentation
Breast enlargement - what is it?
Breast augmentation is a cosmetic surgical procedure that involves the use of breast implants to increase the size, shape, or fullness of the breasts. It is a highly specialized procedure that requires a high level of surgical skill and experience in order to achieve the best possible results.
What is experience ?
Experience refers to the knowledge, skills, and expertise that a person has acquired through their work, education, and life experiences. It can be gained in any field or industry, and it is often seen as an important factor in determining a person's abilities and qualifications.
In most cases, the more experience a person has in a particular field, the more knowledgeable and skilled they are likely to be. For example, a surgeon who has been practicing for many years is likely to have a wealth of experience in their field, which may make them more capable of handling complex cases and achieving the best possible outcomes for their patients.
When choosing a surgeon for breast augmentation, it is important to consider their level of experience and expertise in this area. Surgeons who have a long track record of success in performing breast augmentation, and who have received specialized training in this area, are likely to be the most qualified to provide the highest quality care and results.
Experience is important in breast augmentation surgery because it allows the surgeon to anticipate and address any potential complications or challenges that may arise during the procedure. It also enables the surgeon to make informed decisions about the best approach to take in each individual case, in order to achieve the desired outcome for the patient.
In addition to their surgical skills and experience, it is also important for surgeons performing breast augmentation to have excellent communication skills, in order to effectively discuss the procedure with their patients and address any concerns or questions they may have. It is also important for surgeons to have a strong understanding of the patient's goals and desires, in order to create a treatment plan that is tailored to their individual needs and expectations.
Overall, choosing a surgeon with a high level of experience and expertise in breast augmentation is essential for ensuring the best possible outcome from this procedure.
Technically known as Augmentation Mammaplasty, this is one of the most popular cosmetic procedures in the US , the United Kingdom and Turkey. An implant is inserted through a small incision and positioned either behind the pectoralis major muscle or beneath the actual tissue of the breast. When the implant is beneath the muscle, it may have a more natural appearance.
An implant may look unnatural in front of the muscle if you have a small amount of breast tissue and not much subcutaneous fat. Wrinkling in the implant is also more visible when the implant is placed in front of the muscle.
The Procedure
Breast enlargement takes approximately one hour. In Turkey, the surgery is carried out at a private hospital. You will usually stay in the hospital for one night.
The Recovery Period
Implants are either positioned in front of or behind the muscle. After surgery, you will wear a "bandeau" (for 14 days, day and night and for 2 more weeks during the day only) to position the breast implants. In most cases, no bra is recommended for 6 weeks. Under-wire bras are usually to be avoided except for social occasions. Some sutures may be removed 4 days after surgery. Most sutures do not need to be removed. The remaining sutures will absorb spontaneously and help to give you a narrow scar that is barely visible.
Although you will be out of bed on the same day as your surgery, you will be advised when you can resume your daily routine. Light exercise, such as gentle walking, is permitted at one week, more vigorous exercise at two weeks. You may return to a regular exercise schedule at three weeks. To permit proper healing, you should avoid lifting weights for three weeks. The decision regarding when you should return to work and fully resume normal activities depends on how fast you heal and how you feel. Most patients return to work within seven days. Air travel is permitted after 5 days. No heavy lifting (greater than 5 pounds) is recommended for 10 days. You may drive after 7-10 days. Automatic transmission is easier than a manual transmission or "stick shift."
How will I look?
You will discuss the eventual size of the breasts with Dr.Demir during the initial consultation. Your new breasts should look and feel natural. After the procedure, most women adapt quickly to their new shape and rarely give a second thought to their implants. They will not affect fertility, pregnancy or your ability to breastfeed.
Since the purpose of the procedure is to make, your breasts look attractive;scars are kept as small as possible and usually made either under the nipple or under the crease of the breast.
Safety
Breast enlargement is a relatively safe procedure. However, as with any other surgical procedure, there are certain risks and specific complications that you should discuss with your surgeon.
All implants we used to are numbered and have a CE mark. You will be given a record of this to keep, as it is an important means of being able to identify your chosen implant and its origin years after it has been inserted.
