Breast Augmentation Yields Very Predictable Results Which Helps Ensure Patient Satisfaction

By:


In this day and age, one of the most popular procedures that cosmetic surgeons perform in their surgery centers is breast augmentation. They will usually perform two or three breast augmentations each week. This will not only give them the opportunity to create and develop their own preference and style, but will also keep their skills sharp. Augmentation mammoplasty will typically yield very predictable results. This will help a patient feel satisfied.

A plastic surgeon must place a breast implant into a woman's breast tissue to increase the size of her breasts. Because of this, they need an incision in which they can work through and a pocket in which they are able to place the breast implant. The saline implants of today are usually inflatable just like a balloon. This means that a cosmetic surgeon can insert a saline implant through a smaller incision and inflate the implant after it has been placed in the proper position. However, the pocket in which the breast implant will be placed must be created for the inflated saline implant to fill it.

A decision that you, along with the help of your plastic surgeon, must come to is where the incision will be placed on your body. A fine line scar will likely be produced, so where you decide to have the incision placed is important and effects your future. A common breast augmentation incision location is through the areola. Some people feel that this could potentially harm or damage the milk ducts for breast feeding. Another common area for breast augmentation incision placement is through the armpit. Most breast tissues will be avoided with this technique. Others will choose to have their incision placed very close to the nipple, through their naval, or an older technique, under the breast.

Another decision that you will have to make is whether to put the breast implant above the muscle or under the muscle. The muscle is the "pec" or pectoralis major muscle which is located under the breast on the wall of the chest. Doctors may refer to these techniques as sub-muscular (under the muscle) and sub-glandular (over the muscle). These two technique have their advantages and disadvantages. Many cosmetic surgeons believe that the above the muscle technique will sag quicker, but it is not as painful the night after surgery.

The last thing that you will need to decide on is breast implant size. This can be tricky so the help of a cosmetic surgeon is highly recommended. There are likely limitations on size that will depend on your individual anatomy.
