Perhaps one of the most important things that women care about is breasts. Therefore, breast surgery has become one of the most common and preferred surgeries. Breast augmentation surgery is a method preferred by many women and very successful studies are being done in this regard. Since small breasts make many women unhappy, it is very important for women to have breasts of the required. Therefore, breast augmentation operations come to the fore.
How is it done?
Breast augmentation is actually the placement of a silicon prosthesis. In other words, the silicon is inserted into the breast to give it more volume and size. These prostheses are in the form of breasts and are easily inserted into the breast. An incision is made under the breast and the prosthesis is placed carefully into the breast. Being soft and slippery facilitates the procedure. Although the breast augmentation process scares many people, the process is done diligently and carefully to get a completely natural look.
Things to Know
If the patient is 40 years and older, a mammography and ultrasound are requested and various tests are carried out. Any masses discovered with these checks, if any, are examined. These examinations are mandatory for early intervention. You should be aware of the swelling and pain that may occur after the operation. Like any surgery, this surgery will have a healing process and you should go through this process as carefully as possible.
The Healing Process
The patient is hospitalized for one night after surgery. The patient is subsequently discharged if there is no problem. Pain is less than after other surgeries, but there will be some swelling and occasional stinging and a burning feeling in your breasts. This is a completely natural process. In a period of 3 weeks, the prosthesis settles into its environment completely naturally. Therefore, this time can be called the healing process.
Postoperative Considerations
Heavy lifting and heavy exercise should be avoided after surgery. You should not lie on your chest and face for six weeks. Nowadays, the ideal lying position is on the back. You should have bed rest as much as possible. You can return to your normal life after one week, but your full recovery will take up to 3 weeks.
