What is Breast Enlargement?
Breast enlargement, also known as breast augmentation, is a surgical procedure to increase breast size and improve breast shape. This is typically achieved through the placement of breast implants or fat transfer.
How Does Breast Enlargement Surgery Work?
Breast enlargement surgery involves:
- Incision: An incision is made in one of several locations, such as under the breast (inframammary), around the nipple (periareolar), or in the armpit (transaxillary).
- Implant Placement: A pocket is created either under the pectoral muscle (submuscular) or over the pectoral muscle (subglandular). The breast implant is then inserted into this pocket.
- Closure: The incision is closed with sutures.
The procedure is typically performed under general anesthesia and takes 1-2 hours.
The Ideal Candidate
Candidates for breast enlargement surgery typically include:
- Women who desire larger breasts
- Those with asymmetrical breasts
- People who have lost breast volume due to weight loss or pregnancy
- Healthy individuals without medical conditions that might impair healing
- Non-smokers
- Individuals with realistic expectations
During your consultation, Dr. Maresky will assess whether breast enlargement is appropriate for your specific concerns and medical history.
Recovery
Recovery from breast enlargement surgery typically involves:
- Temporary discomfort, swelling, and bruising
- Pain medication to manage discomfort
- Compression bra to support the breasts
- Limited arm movement for 1-2 weeks
- Return to normal activities within 4-6 weeks
