COSMETIC BREAST SURGERY
WHAT IS COSMETIC BREAST SURGERY?
It is common for your breasts to deflate due to pregnancy, breastfeeding, aging, and weight loss. On the contrary, you can have large breasts due to genetic factors. Breast reconstruction is a procedure to improve the size and shape of the breast. At the point where medical science has reached today, operations are much easier and healthier than in the past.
WHAT ARE THE TECHNİQUES USED IN COSMETIC BREAST SURGERY?
Cosmetic breast surgery is performed in three categories as breast augmentation (breast enlargement), breast reduction (reduction mammoplasty) and breast lift (mastopexy) operations.
In the surgery, various shapes, sizes, and filling materials are selected according to the needs and wishes of the person. Then, the implant is placed under or over the muscle by making an incision from the naturally occurring fold under the breast. This method prevents the surgical scars on the breast from appearing at first glance. The procedure can also be done with an incision made from the nipple or armpit. However, the incision made under the breast is more preferred because it causes less deformation.
IN WHICH SITUATIONS ARE COSMETIC BREAST SURGERY PERFORMED?
Those who are not satisfied with their breast size, those who have lost their breast form, those who have breast asymmetry, those who have problems due to the size of their breasts, and those who have lost one or both of their breasts due to various diseases such as cancer can have breast aesthetics.
Although these operations are recommended for women between the ages of 18-50, they can be applied to those under the age of 18 and above the age of 50, provided that they have the approval of the family.
In men, breast aesthetics is applied in cases where there is lubrication around the chest due to irregular increases in estrogen and testosterone hormones, due to various diseases, or as a result of malnutrition.
RECOVERY PROCESS
After the procedure, pain is felt for a few days, it will be useful to rest for 2 weeks as much as possible. Because adequate rest allows the body to recover faster. After the treatment, it is necessary to avoid strenuous physical activities. In operations performed with self-melting medical threads, recovery takes place in about 1 month.
WILL THERE BE ANY SCARS ON MY BODY AFTER THE OPERATION?
Since breast surgery involves an incision, there is a scar after the operation. However, as the healing process continues, the suture marks disappear over time
WILL I EXPERIENCE LOSS OF SENSATION AFTER BREAST AUGMENTATION?
After breast aesthetics, loss of sensation in the nipple can be seen. This situation continues until full recovery and disappears with recovery.
CAN I BREASTFEED AFTER HAVING BREAST AESTHETICS?
Since breast aesthetics is aimed at muscle and skin tissue, the milk ducts are not damaged, and you will not have any problems with breastfeeding.
ARE BREAST LIFT AND REDUCTION OPERATIONS PERFORMED AT THE SAME TIME?
Breast reduction and breast lift operation can be performed at the same time.
IS THERE AN AGE LIMIT FOR BREAST AESTHETICS?
Since the breasts complete their development until the age of 20, breast aesthetics is applied after this age.
