Not everyone is blessed with the perfect pair of breasts, and plastic surgery can be a great help. There is no way to improve breast shape other than surgically. Post-surgery reports show that patients have an improved body image, a decrease in self-consciousness, and a heightened self-confidence. Below are some of the most frequently asked questions about breast implants.
When can I go back to my normal activities?
Within one week, you should be able to resume normal activity. However, excessive or violent arm movements should be avoided for at least three weeks.
What type of implants will be used?
Both silicone and saline implants are FDA approved for breast enlargement surgery.
Where will the scars be?
Based on your implant type and surgical technique, the scars may be located beneath the breast, around the areola, or in the underarm. Regardless of the incision location, scars typically fade significantly within a few months of the procedure.
How long will the implants last?
Breast implants are not expected to last forever and a periodic mammogram should be performed to evaluate the integrity of the implant. If there is a rupture, or if the implant breaks for any reason, such as during an accident, it will be necessary to remove the implant and replace it.
What are the risks of contraction?
After a breast implant surgery a fibrous scar capsule is formed as part of the healing process. Sometimes this capsule can be too thick and too tight which could compress the implant. This can happen in different degrees. When the fibrous capsule is too large, it may have to be removed and the implant replaced.
How much does breast augmentation cost?
As with all surgery, there is a range depending on your surgeon and the region where you live. On average, the range is $7,500 to $11,000.
