Breast Augmentation Surgery.

Breast augmentation is a surgical procedure used to enhance the size of women's breasts. There are many reasons and some of them may be: not feeling satisfied with their size or wanting to restore them after losing volume due to a previous surgery or breast-feeding. Do you want to look sexier? Do you wish to restore harmony to your body? We can provide you a low cost breast augmentation.

What does breast augmentation do

-         It enhances the size of a woman's breasts.

-         Breast implants allows a woman to balance the size of her breasts when one is smaller than the other. Most women have one breast bigger than the other. This difference can be compensated by using two implants of different sizes.

-         Breast implants fills those breasts that appear to be 'empty', that is, with a lot of skin but little consistency, that some women have as a result of pregnancies or due to the aging process. If this is your case, you can have a breast lift done together with the breast implantation.

How is breast implants surgery performed

Among the possible incisions, three are the most frequent; all of them are approximately 1.5 inches (4 cm ) long:

-         A semicircle under the lower outline of the areole (dark area around the nipples)

-         On the armpit.

-         At the fold where the breast meets the chest. This incision is the one that allows an easier and faster insertion of the implant but, because it leaves more visible scars, our surgeons do not resort to it except in very particular cases; for example, when there already is a scar from a prior implant that must be replaced.

The surgeon will determine which one of the three incisions is better for you, according to your body and the kind of implant chosen. Working with special instruments through the incision, he creates a pocket in each breast to hold the implants. He then places the implants in each one of the pockets, using the nipples as reference. Finally, he inserts the drainage tubes and closes the incisions with sutures.
It is important to mention that the implants are always placed behind the mammary gland, but there are two possible locations: 

Behind the pectoral muscle: this procedure is more complicated and the recovery is more painful, but the muscles prevent the implant's outline to be seen under the skin, giving the breast a more natural look. Placed here, the implants will interfere less in future mammograms.

In front of the pectoral muscle: this location is advisable for women who do intense physical exercises with their arms.

Hospitalization: If the surgery is performed with local anesthesia, no hospitalization is required. If general anesthesia was used, you will have to be hospitalized for one night.

Anesthesia: Between 30 to 120 minutes, according to the complexity of the case

Length of breast implants surgery: Between 2 and 4 hours, according to the complexity of the case.

Advantages of cohesive silicone gel implants

Cohesive means that it tends to remain whole. This means that, even if the shell were to rupture, its content would not spill out. It would remain whole without any divisions.

They do not lose their volume as time goes by.

They do not make 'liquid' sounds during physical activities.

They have a very natural consistency when touched. In the past, its content used to leak through the micropores of the shell and caused capsular contractures. Nowadays, these leakages have been almost completely reduced thanks to the cohesive properties of the content and to the new shells made of several superimposed layers.

In most European countries, in Asia and America the use of these implants for cosmetic purposes is allowed, but not in the United States, where they may be used, however, for reconstructive purposes.

Advantages of saline breast implants

If they rupture, the content of these implants is assimilated by the body and eliminated in a completely natural way. They lose their volume in a matter of hours and, since this change in volume can be seen immediately, they can be replaced as soon as you notice it.
If the liquid inside leaks out, it will not produce capsular contracture, the content is metabolized and eliminated naturally by the body. Nowadays, these leakages have been almost completely reduced thanks to the new shells made of several superimposed layers. Smooth or textured?
What does breast augmentation not do

It does not correct asymmetries in the location of the areolas or nipples. It does not lift hanging breasts. If this is your case, we recommend that you read the information on breast lift that we provide. Even though it will make your body look more beautiful and harmonious, and will probably also improve your self-esteem, it will not be enough to make you look perfect. We must be realistic and accept that that kind of perfection does not exist.
