Breast Enhancement
Breast enhancement surgery increases the size of your breasts through the insertion of implants after consideration of your body type, your desired cup size and the look and shape you would like to achieve through surgery. Your surgeon will discuss your expectations and goals and help you decide on a size and shape of implant that is right for your body type and size. The goal is to enhance the appearance of your breasts in the most natural looking way.
Ideal Breast Enhancement Candidate Criteria
An ideal candidate for breast enhancement surgery is someone:
- In good physical and emotional health
- Not currently pregnant or breastfeeding
- Having realistic expectations and goals for the surgery
- Over eighteen years old
Breast Enhancement Outpatient Procedure
Breast enhancement surgery is an outpatient procedure performed under local anesthesia with sedation, but general anesthesia may be an option in some cases. The procedure usually is accomplished in one to two hours, but the time may vary according to individual circumstances, such as the technique used, the placement of the implants, your anatomy and the type of anesthesia used.
Side Effects and Pain Control
The side effects encountered may include temporary pain and discomfort, bruising, swelling, soreness and sensitivity. The pain and discomfort is usually very tolerable lasting just days. The pain and discomfort encountered the first one to two days after surgery is easily controlled by prescription pain medication to be followed by over the counter pain relievers for another day or two. Most women report the discomfort they experienced was well-worth the outcome of their breast enhancement surgery.
Long Lasting Result
The final results of your breast enhancement surgery should last a long time, but pregnancy, weight fluctuations and aging may create the need for replacement of your breast implants. A surgeon with a special interest in the field of breast enhancement surgery should be able to give you the best result for the longest possible time.
