Breast augmentation is a popular plastic surgery procedure that involves breast implants of fat transfer to increase the size of the breasts. This procedure has a long and successful track record of helping women who wish to enhance, regain, or restore balance to their figures.
Individuals who are looking to achieve a better-proportioned figure, feel that their breasts are too small for their body, or have asymmetrical breasts may be able to benefit from this procedure. Ideal candidates will be done having children, not be breastfeeding, and have a positive attitude about their procedure. A consultation with Dr. Azouz is needed to determine if this procedure is a good match for you.
The breast augmentation procedure can be done using saline or silicone breast implants. Saline implants are filled with a sterile saltwater solution, while silicone implants are filled with a silicone gel. Both implants have their own pros and cons, which can be discussed during your consultation.
Patients will also have to choose between incision patterns, which include the periareolar (around the nipple), inframammary (in the breast fold), and transaxillary (in the armpit) incisions.
During the procedure, the chosen implant will be placed through the appropriate incision and placed into the breast pocket. Incisions are then sutured closed.
Following your breast augmentation procedure, you will need to wear a surgical dressing that may include a support bra. It is important to wear this garment throughout your recovery to reduce swelling and support your new breast contours.
Your breasts may swell and may feel tight or sensitive to the touch during recovery. Any discomfort can be controlled with pain medication. It is important that you refrain from excessive physical activity for at least two weeks after your surgery. Be sure to follow Dr. Azouz’s post-op instructions to help ensure optimal results.
