Breast augmentation surgery

This type of surgery has a different approach to those performed in order to increase the breast in aesthetic surgery terms. The main objective of this technique is to increase the volume of the healthy breast so as to have consistency and similar borders to those of the reconstructed breast.

Breast augmentation surgery involves using breast implants or fat to increase the size of your breasts or restore breast volume that has been lost after weight reduction or pregnancy.

Breast implants are also used for post-mastectomy breast reconstruction, for correcting congenital defects and deformities of the chest wall.

The augmentation mammoplasty may carry bruises, pain or swelling during one or two weeks. It is also common to feel some pain in the nipple area.Swelling is minimized with gauze dressings and elastic bandages.

Augmentation mammoplasty is a procedure that enhances patients' self-image who are more confident after the surgery.
