Breast aesthetics is a widely performed aesthetic procedure in our society, just as it is around the world. As advancing technology makes these procedures easier by the day, there has also been a notable increase in the number of people considering breast aesthetic surgery. For this reason, in this article we will cover frequently asked questions and topics of interest regarding breast aesthetics.<\/p>\n
During breast augmentation surgery, a 4-5 cm incision is made in the armpit, around the nipple, or under the breast, and a silicone implant is placed. These scars fade after surgery and become barely noticeable. Silicone implants, also known as breast implants, are filled with silicone gel. The shape and size of the implant to be used varies from person to person. This decision is made jointly by the doctor and the patient, taking into account the patient’s wishes as well as their body measurements.<\/p>\n
The surgery is performed under general anesthesia. This means the patient feels no pain during the procedure. The duration of the surgery also varies depending on the case, but it generally takes around 1-2 hours.<\/p>\n
The technique used in breast reduction surgery is determined according to the amount and shape of the patient’s breast tissue. A lollipop-shaped incision is used for relatively small breasts, a ‘J’ shaped incision for medium-sized breasts, and an inverted-T incision for large breasts; excess breast tissue is removed during the breast reduction procedure. For this reason, patients are asked to have a mammogram before breast reduction surgery.<\/p>\n
Breast lift surgery, on the other hand, is combined with either breast augmentation or breast reduction. When breasts are very saggy, a breast implant may also be used during the lift. In cases where the patient’s own breast tissue is sufficient, I generally prefer to perform the breast lift using the patient’s own tissue. During breast lift surgery, volume is restored to the breast and sagging is corrected. The nipple is repositioned.<\/p>\n
A breast implant that has been fitted within normal standards according to the patient’s body measurements is not noticeable from the outside. It is only noticeable from the outside in procedures that push beyond normal limits. Moreover, with today’s advancing technology, implants themselves have also improved. The implants used today cannot be detected either by looking or by touch.<\/p>\n
Silicone implants are placed beneath the breast tissue. The implants have no contact with the milk ducts whatsoever. For this reason, they cause no damage to the milk ducts. There is nothing about breast augmentation surgery that prevents breastfeeding afterward.<\/p>\n
In breast reduction surgery, however, since a certain amount of breast tissue is removed, there is a possibility of damage to the milk ducts even with careful technique. No guarantee can be given that a patient will be able to breastfeed after breast reduction or breast lift surgery.<\/p>\n
Today, the vast majority of plastic surgeons prefer round implants. Depending on the patient’s body shape, a teardrop-shaped (anatomical) implant may also be preferred. However, it should be kept in mind that which shape is better can vary from person to person and depends on the type of chest.<\/p>\n
Scarring does not disappear completely after breast augmentation surgery; however, since the scars remain under the breast, they are concealed. Moreover, these scars gradually turn pink and fade, becoming barely noticeable.<\/p>\n
The average lifespan of a breast implant is about 10-15 years. As for the latest-generation implants we currently use, it is still difficult to give a definite lifespan since their use is still ongoing. However, it will be longer than that of the previous generation.<\/p>\n
Unless there is a medical necessity, breast aesthetic surgery is performed on individuals aged 18 and over. It is not recommended to have breast aesthetic surgery while breast development is not yet complete. However, in cases where it causes health problems, breast reduction surgery can sometimes be performed under the age of 18 as well.<\/p>\n
After breast lift surgery, the breasts regain volume and fullness; however, breast lift surgery cannot prevent the breasts from sagging again in the future. Due to factors such as aging or giving birth again, the breasts may sag once more over the long term.<\/p>\n
Breast lift surgery should be performed at least 6 months after breastfeeding has been stopped.<\/p>\n
Technically, no. Research shows that the likelihood of a breast implant causing cancer is far, far lower than the likelihood of being involved in a traffic accident. Even if it were to develop, it would be easier to treat than other types. To detect it, it is sufficient to take and examine fluid from around the implant.<\/p>\n
The patient can go home the day after breast aesthetic surgery. It is recommended to rest at home for 3-4 days after the surgery. After breast aesthetic surgery, patients can generally return to both their social and work life within about 1 week. However, for patients whose jobs require heavy physical activity, this period may be somewhat longer.<\/p>\n
The prices for breast aesthetic surgery vary depending on the details of the procedure to be performed. It is not possible to give a precise and accurate price range without first examining the patient.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
