Breast Augmentation
Although the matter of breast size is rather contentious, we cannot deny the fact that some people like it big. Some people might find it trivial, but there are women who see themselves differently because they do not have the breasts that they want. This can get to the point where the person loses self-esteem and begins to doubt herself. The very reason for why plastic surgery has emerged is to help people with their confidence. When it comes to breast augmentation, if you live more comfortably and view yourself better by increasing the size of your breasts, then why should anyone stop you?
There are a number of reasons that women think their breasts are too small. Women who have slimmed down significantly will lose breast volume. Breasts are made of adipose tissues or fats. Hence, if you are dieting, you are likely to burn not just the fat around your hips but also ones that comprise your breasts. Women who have gone through mastectomy, or the removal of breast tissues, will have, literally, flat chests. Because of that, these women might want to have their old bodies back and breast augmentation can be their only option.
Simply put, breast augmentation is a procedure that increases the volume of your breasts with the use of surgical implants. Breast augmentation is synonymous to the term augmentation mammaplasty. Breast augmentation is often undertaken by women who have tiny breasts due to their genes. There are also women who have asymmetric breast sizes and shapes. One thing that breast augmentation does not do is to improve sagging breasts. A breast lift procedure should be done in order to correct such problem and not a breast augmentation.
Breast augmentation is a very personal matter. You should not undergo this procedure in order to please anyone else except for yourself. A good candidate for breast augmentation should have a solid grasp of what breast augmentation will do to her personally and not base her decision on how people will treat her. Also, candidates of breast augmentation should be non-smokers and not have medical problems that will affect the body’s ability to heal. Women who are immune-compromised and have life-threatening conditions are not good candidates for breast augmentation.
When it comes to this procedure, you have to be very honest with your doctor. This is to ensure that nothing untoward happens. You should explain to your doctor your expectations after the completion of the surgery so that he can correct any misconceptions right at the get go. You should also share with your doctor your health history. This includes allergies, medications, medical conditions and vices.
After the surgery, your doctor should be able to teach you how to take care of your wounds. You will be given drugs in order to control the pain, which decrease the likelihood of infection and accelerate healing. You will feel discomfort and pain after the surgery. However, drugs will help you overcome any discomfort. Your doctor will make you wear a support bra for a couple of weeks which you will not be able to remove. You need to wait for 5 to 10 days before your wounds heal enough to be able to go back to work. Your partner may have to wait four to six weeks before being able to gain access to your breasts once more. As time progresses, the incision lines will thin out and scars will eventually lighten up.
