On the second place in demand among all plastic surgeries — breast enlargement and improvement of its form.

Indeed, as classic said, there is no need to wait for the mercy of nature. Lush Breasts are beautiful and sexy.

In General, the indications for surgery for breast augmentation with implants can be reduced to the dissatisfaction of the patient by its size and form. Because technically you can live with a complete lack of mammary glands. But if it causes discomfort and undermines the self — esteem- will help plastic surgery, which defines the following indications for breast augmentation:

  1. Dissatisfaction with the shape and size of the breast.
  2. Congenital anomalies of breast development: no breast on one or both sides, asymmetry, small Breasts.
  3. Reconstruction of a breast after removal of the gland because of a tumor or after trauma.

Contraindications

Plastic surgery breast augmentation is a surgical procedure that carries certain risks, so there are contraindications to its conduct. They are divided into two groups: absolute and relative. Absolute contraindications mean that the operation is dangerous to health and even life. Among them:

  • severe pathology of the cardiovascular system;
  • exacerbation of chronic diseases;
  • varicose veins;
  • violation of blood coagulability;
  • malignant neoplasms (cancer);
  • pregnancy;
  • less than six months from the time of cessation of breastfeeding.

It is important to know!The individual absolute contraindication to surgery to increase the bust installed by the court, the incapacity of the patient, meaning that her mental and physical condition does not allow to fully realize the essence of the intervention and the possible consequences.

Relative contraindications to a plastic breast augmentation talking about situations in which surgery is better to abstain, but if it is still necessary to carefully weigh the possible risks. Such contraindications:

  • Compensated chronic diseases of the cardiovascular (hypertension, ischemic heart disease) and endocrine (diabetes) systems, glaucoma. In this case, the attending physician and the patient must give permission for the operation.

The results of plastic surgery should bring you joy. Therefore, the contraindications should be treated very seriously. Moreover, we should not hide them from the doctor: you can try to fool the doctor, but not your own body.

Preparatory phase: definition of the strategy of the operation

Consult a doctor before breast augmentation with implants is always a compromise between the desires of the patient and the harsh realities of physiology. Perfect Breasts are always proportional and looks natural. While the proportions will depend on height, body type, width of the chest, the specific structure of the gland itself.

Please note! Surround the implant is supplied undersized, fragile girl, can make her figure disproportionate and ridiculous.

But matters is not only the aesthetic parameters of breast enlargement in women. It is very important and the health status of the patient, and the motivation and understanding that increase female breast is traumatic intervention, which will need to be restored. All this is discussed at the consultation. Any operation is a compromise of benefits and risks. And because only a doctor can fully evaluate all the risks, and he was responsible for the result, his word is what becomes decisive in any disagreement.

The choice of implant

the choice of implant for breast augmentation

The physician chooses the implant, taking into account the individual anatomy of the patient. When this is taken into account a few factors:

  • Material and content. The most popular option is silicone implants. Modern high-quality silicone implants to the touch not differ from the natural Breasts. The thick shell is very difficult to damage, but if suddenly this happens, viscous and non-flowable gel will retain their properties and not leave the confines of the shell. Another popular filler is saline. These implants come empty and are filled after installation. Known and fillers such as soy or polysaccharide hydrogels (polyglukin, carboxymethylcellulose) — but it is rather exotic.
  • Form. Implants can be round or anatomical. Breast augmentation anatomical implants teardrop shape simulates the "real" breast. Breast augmentation round implant creates the effect of a push-up. When properly selected, natural look and those and others. Round implants are often put athletes: if the active movement of the muscles will change their position, breast shape will remain the same. Breast augmentation round implants and prefer those ladies who want to get more volume and fullness in the upper part of the breast. Those who think it's unnatural, choose the anatomic form. But specific advice on how to stop, can only give a doctor who will do increase bust.
  • The implant surface may be smooth or "rough" textured. Modern implants have a textured surface less perceived by the body as a foreign body. This is one of the most unpleasant possible consequences of breast augmentation, when the body is trying to isolate the implant and grows around it a fibrous capsule, deforming the chest.
  • The size (volume) is measured in cubic milliliters. Discussed with the patient, but the end result is determined by her body type and the state of your own breast tissue. Most often installed implants with a volume of from 300 to 450 mm3, but options in a wider range — from 200 to 600 cm3.
  • Manufacturer. Today there are about ten well-established manufacturers of silicone implants. Specific details that relate to the choice of the brand, again discussed directly with your doctor. Any of the modern manufacturers offer a variety of implants sizes and shapes what allows to choose for each patient the option that fully meets its individual parameters.

After selecting the size and shape of the implants the doctor and the patient decide together how they will be located. There are several possible methods for the location of the implant in breast augmentation, among them:

  1. Subglandular. The implant is inserted directly below the mammary gland. This option is good in cases where iron itself has a fairly large amount of tissue preserved the density and skin elasticity. The technique is minimally traumatic and allows to recover quickly, but the implant itself is often visible.
  2. Subfascial. The pocket for the implant is formed under the fascia — the connective tissue sheath of the pectoral muscle. Technically, this method can be considered a variant of the subglandular installation. Practicing his doctors talking about better fixation of the implant.
  3. Submuscular. The implant is inserted under the chest muscle, which is separated from the ribs and which is partially netscout. This option is more traumatic and requires a long recovery, but the implant is virtually unnoticeable and secure.
  4. A combined method. The upper part of the implant is under the chest muscle, the lower beneath the breast.

What kind of breast enlargement method to choose, decided by the doctor based on the location of the mammary glands, their shape, skin and glandular tissue, volume and elasticity of the chest muscles.

Evaluate the results: the beauty of worth of victims

Many women are happy with their new Breasts already in the first dressings. But more or less adequately assess the results is possible not earlier than in six months, and final conclusions should not be done earlier than a year after the surgery. And how it will be, depends on post-operative care to the same extent as the skill of the surgeon. To maintain beautiful breast shape possible for years, if not to neglect the care to wear a bra (the effect of gravity can not be undone) and avoid sudden changes in weight.

Was it worth the beauty of the victims? Most of the women who decided on the operation, the answer is clear — definitely worth it. The pain will pass, the swelling will resolve and the scars will become invisible. And self-esteem, constantly growing due to the admiring glances of men.
