Breast Augmentation
Breasts are sign of Feminity to a lady. A self conscious lady may feel disappointed with small or saggy breasts. This can be improved by various means, like: (1) Implant placement and (2) Fat Injection. This is also known as Breast Enlargement.
Breast augmentation is performed to
- Enlarge under developed breast,
- Balance difference in breast size and
- Improve contour/ fullness of small / ptotic (falling) breast after child birth.
Sometimes, this surgery is also performed for enlargement of post-cancer excision breast.
Most commonly this is achieved with placement of Silicone Breast Implants underneath breasts. There are two types of implants available:
- Silicone filled
- Saline filled
Silicone filled implants are most commonly used, as they give more natural feel to breast.
Implant can be inserted through an incision under breast crease, areola border or armpit. Among all these approaches, we use breast crease incision most commonly. Implant is placed under breast tissue or under chest muscle depending upon condition of existing breast, your expectations and surgeon’s aesthetic judgment.
