Breast Augmentation, mammaplasty, is a cosmetic procedure that uses breast implants to enlarge and shape the breasts. Breast augmentation will make your breasts bigger, it will not improve nipple asymmetry, nor move the breasts together nor lift droopy breasts. If you have droopy breasts, you might consider a breast lift. Boston Breast Augmentation is a procedure that can help patients that had babies, that want to look fuller, or for patients that after breast reconstruction want to look natural again.
The surgery takes anywhere from 35 minutes to 5 hours. The Plastic Surgeon will discuss with you the placement of the breast implant, and where to locate the incision. These two points are of extreme importance, you as well as your doctor can agree on the pros and cons of the different choices, and which would be the right one for your particular case. Breast Augmentation is the most popular of breast surgery procedures.
The breast lift procedure is geared towards women who's breasts have taken a toll after pregnancy, nursing and /or the force of gravity. As the skin looses its elasticity, the breasts start sagging, they loose their shape and firmness. This cosmetic procedure raises and reshapes sagging breasts.
For patients who’ve experimented the devastating effects of time or breastfeeding on their breasts, a breastlift, or the medical term, mastopexy, is the surgery that could help them attain better shaped, firmer breasts. In some cases patients could even reduce the size of the nipple, and insert breast implants to help achieve firmer breasts.
The surgery usually takes anywhere from two to three hours, and again it depends on each individual case, whether the patient has more, or less tissue to be removed, and whether a patient decides to have implants inserted and/or their nipple reduced. General anaesthesia is used, so it would be wise to consult with your surgeon on the risks and complications of anaesthesia, and whether you are at risk for any complication.
