Every day, thousands of women undergo breast augmentation, or breast enlargement, surgery. Surprisingly, many women who undergo breast augmentation surgery do not fully consider all the issues involved with the procedure and its effects on their lives.
If you are considering breast enlargement, one of the most important issues in making your decision should be if you are doing this for yourself. “I am constantly amazed at the number of women who come into my office, not because they want to make the change but because their boyfriend or husband would prefer larger breasts,” says Dr. Miguel Delgado, a plastic surgeon in San Francisco, California.
Our society places a great emphasis on personal appearance. Breast augmentation is a permanent decision that, although it can change your life, should be considered only if your expectations are realistic. Breast enlargement will not completely change your life or make you a different person. Breast enlargement, however, can enhance your curves and physical appearance, especially if you have had children.
The best candidates for breast enlargement are emotionally mature women who desire larger, shapelier breasts. A common reason to undergo the procedure is that the breasts are asymmetric, usually where one
breast is noticeably smaller than the other. Breast enlargement can bring the undersized breast into balance with the larger.
Breast augmentation surgery will leave a scar. An experienced cosmetic surgeon will be able to minimize this scarring, but it can not be completely eliminated. If you are considering breast enlargement surgery, you and your surgeon will discuss where the implant should be placed and, consequently, where the scar will be located. This is most often located in the armpit, around the nipple, or at the base of the breast.
Another consideration is the implant itself. Saline implants can be round, moderate, or high profile. The surface of the implant can be smooth, textured, or a “teardrop” with a textured surface.
Many women who undergo breast enlargement surgery choose to have a breast lift at the same time. This will obviously be more expensive, however most women find that undergoing the two procedures together produces fantastic results.
