Breast Augmentation

Good candidates for this surgical intervention are anyone who does not find the size of their breasts sufficient and has completed their breast development.

People who have disproportion between their two breasts, thanks to this operation, both breasts are provided to be in equal proportion. Breast augmentation is not only suitable for the following people:


 

• Under the age of 18

• Pregnant women

• People with incomplete breast development

• Those planning to become pregnant soon

• Health status, unsuitable for surgical intervention

Breastfeeding mothers can have a breast augmentation operation, but they may experience difficulties as they will have some difficulty in this process and cannot breastfeed their baby for a certain period of time. Therefore, breastfeeding mothers are recommended to postpone the procedure until later.

How breast augmentation is done varies depending on which technique will be preferred. By attaching a breast prosthesis, the desired breast enlargement is achieved. General anesthesia is applied to people for this operation.

There are two basic types of breast implants: Saline and silicone gel.

Saline-filled implants are silicone shells filled with sterile salt water (saline).  Some are pre-filled and others can be filled after they’re placed, which means incisions and scars can be smaller.

Silicone gel-filled implants are silicone shells filled with a plastic gel (silicone). Since silicone implants are filled they do not allow changing size according to body proportions.

There are two types of silicone gel-filled implants. The ones that are much more similar to natural breast tissue with a round form and filled with thick silicone gel and the ones teardrop-shaped implants which are denser and firmer but protect shape better for a long time.



Silicone implants are normally used for breast reconstruction surgery for breast cancer patients for they don’t wrinkle or ripple. Both saline and silicone come in different sizes and have either smooth or textured shells. Each has its own pros and cons, so it is a matter of preference.

The best implant will depend on the needs of each individual patient. Appropriate prosthesis is preferred according to the breast and rib cage structure of the person. At this point, a realistic prosthesis should be preferred.

The prosthesis is placed through the incisions made under the breast of the person. In this way, more permanent breast growth is achieved.

Prosthetic silicone is placed in 4-5 cm incisions in the section under the breast. Silicone prostheses to be used during the procedure are produced by many companies around the world.

One of the most confusing issues regarding breast silicone prostheses is whether these prostheses pose a cancer risk.

First of all, these silicones are subjected to many tests and are produced completely reliable. Therefore, we can say that there is no risk. Breast silicones are usually placed under the breast of the person. It can also be placed from the nipple and under the armpit.
