Breast Implants Surgeon By Dr.Deepthidevarakonda @eternelleaesthetics

Properly shaped breasts can boost a woman's confidence and enhance her beauty, but pregnancy and ageing can cause sagging and loss of shape. Fortunately, breast implant surgery is a reliable option for restoring the fullness and symmetry of breasts. This surgery can also be a means of reconstructing breasts for women who have undergone breast cancer surgery.

With advancements in medical technology and surgical techniques, breast implant surgery is now one of the safest and most reliable cosmetic surgeries available. With this surgery, women can achieve the size and shape they desire, without having to rely on temporary or ineffective methods.

Breast implant surgery, also known as mammoplasty or breast augmentation, is a cosmetic surgical procedure designed to enhance the size, shape, and fullness of a woman's breasts. This involves placing breast implants - medical devices - either beneath the chest muscle or breast tissue

Breast augmentation is usually performed in the following cases:

To enlarge the size of your breasts that are naturally small
To enhance the symmetry of your breasts
To restore the size and shape of sagging breasts after pregnancy, breastfeeding, or weight loss
To restore your breasts after a surgery


Who can opt for breast implant surgery?

1. Women Who Have Undergone Mastectomy
Mastectomy is a surgical procedure that is done to remove breast tissue in case of breast cancer. Women who have undergone mastectomy can opt for breast implants to build up the lost structure and gain fuller-looking breasts.

2. Women With Underdeveloped Breasts
Breast implants can be an option for women who have naturally underdeveloped or asymmetrical breasts. This procedure can enhance the appearance of their breasts and provide them with the proper size and symmetry, ultimately boosting their self-confidence.

3. Women With Fully Grown Uneven Breasts
Women who have fully developed breasts can undergo a breast implant if they are not happy with the shape of their breasts. But it is important to set realistic expectations as breast implants can only increase your breast size to a certain extent. You can discuss various aspects of the surgery with your doctor and convey your expectations from the procedure.

Who is an ideal candidate for breast implant surgery?

Good overall health: The woman should be in good health and not have any underlying medical conditions that could increase the risks associated with surgery.

Fully developed breasts: The woman's breasts should be fully developed, and they should be at least 18 years old.

Want to enhance the appearance or size or shape of breasts: Women who are unhappy with the size, shape, or symmetry of their breasts and be seeking the procedure for personal reasons.

The woman is not pregnant and currently breastfeeding: Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding are not good candidates for breast augmentation surgery, as pregnancy and breastfeeding can affect the size and shape of the breasts.

Non-smoker: Patients who smoke should quit smoking at least a few weeks before the surgery and during the recovery period, as smoking can increase the risks of complications.

Types of breast implants
Two basic types of breast implants that are available are saline and silicone gel.

Saline implants: These implants are silicone shells that are filled with sterile saline (salt water). Some come as pre-filled while others are filled during the surgery.
Silicone gel-filled implants: These implants are filled with silicone gel (plastic gel).

Both saline and silicone implants come in different sizes and textures (either have smooth or textured shells).

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulates breast implants and sets specific requirements for their safety and effectiveness. In general, the FDA has approved saline implants for women 18 years of age and older and silicone implants for women 22 years of age and older.

However, it is better to consult our plastic surgeon. Our board-certified plastic surgeon will discuss your individual needs and concerns to determine the best breast implant option for you.

Breast implant procedure and Recovery

Procedure
You will receive general anaesthesia or intravenous sedation to ensure you are comfortable during the procedure.
Your surgeon will make incisions in the breast tissue, under the breast, around the nipple, or in the armpit to create a pocket for the implant.
One of the following three incision types also called breast implant lines will be used by your surgeon to do the implantation :
Inframammary (beneath your breast)
Axillary (underarm)
Periareolar (in the tissue surrounding the nipples)
The implants will be inserted into the pocket and positioned to achieve the desired size and shape.
The incisions will be closed using either sutures or surgical tape.

Recovery

After the surgery, your breasts will be covered with gauze and a supportive bra to help reduce swelling and provide support to the implants.
Your surgeon may also insert drainage tubes to help remove excess fluids from the surgical site.
You will likely need to wear the supportive bra for several weeks after the surgery to help with the healing process. Your surgeon will provide specific instructions regarding when you can remove the gauze and bra.
The drainage tubes will typically be removed a few days after the surgery. Your surgeon will also provide instructions on how to care for the incision sites and manage any discomfort or pain.
The recovery time can vary for each woman, and it may take up to six weeks to fully recover from the surgery. However, some women may feel better after a week.
It is common to experience swelling and bruising after the surgery, but they usually subside within 1-2 weeks.
You may experience pain and discomfort for a few days after the surgery, which can be managed with pain medication prescribed by our surgeon.
Most patients can return to work within 3-5 days, but this may vary depending on the nature of the job.

Aftercare Essentials:
It's important to stay hydrated by drinking plenty of fluids after the surgery.
Wear comfortable clothing that won't irritate the incision site.
Follow your surgeon's instructions carefully when taking any prescribed medications.
Get enough sleep and rest to allow your body to heal.

Make sure to follow your surgeon's post-operative instructions carefully to ensure a smooth recovery and optimal results.
