Breast Augmentation

Breast augmentation, also known as augmentation mammoplasty, is a cosmetic procedure to enhance breast size, shape, and symmetry. It can involve implants (silicone or saline) or fat transfer from another part of the body.

• The surgery is performed under general anesthesia, and incisions are made to place the implants or inject the purified fat.
• Recovery typically requires a 1-day hospital stay or is outpatient, with support garments aiding healing. 
• Regular follow-ups ensure proper healing and address any adjustments or long-term maintenance.

It is generally considered a safe and effective procedure, with a success rate of approximately 95-98%. Success is defined by achieving the desired aesthetic results, minimal complications, and patient satisfaction. Advances in surgical techniques, implant quality, and post-operative care have contributed to this high success rate. However, outcomes depend on factors such as the surgeon's expertise, the patient's health, and adherence to post-operative instructions.
