Breast Augmentation (Augmentation Mammoplasty)
What Is Breast Augmentation?
Breast augmentation is a surgical procedure designed to enhance the size, shape and projection of the breasts using implants or fat transfer. It can improve breast symmetry, restore volume lost due to aging or pregnancy and enhance overall body proportions.
What Can Breast Augmentation Change?
Breast augmentation can:
- Increase breast size for a fuller appearance
- Improve breast shape and projection
- Correct asymmetry between breasts
- Restore volume lost due to pregnancy, weight loss or aging
- Enhance body proportions and boost self-confidence
Are You a Good Candidate?
You may be a good candidate for a breast augmentation if you:
- Are in good overall health and do not have medical conditions that interfere with healing
- Have realistic expectations about breast size and shape
- Desire enhanced volume or symmetry in the breasts
- Are finished with pregnancy and breastfeeding, or understand its potential effects on results
- Are prepared to follow post-operative care instructions for optimal results
What to Expect During Surgery?
- Breast augmentation is performed under general anaesthesia.
- Implants (saline or silicone) are placed either under the breast tissue or beneath the chest muscle.
- The surgeon makes incisions in inconspicuous areas, such as the inframammary fold, around the areola, or in the armpit.
- Fat transfer is an alternative for natural volume enhancement using your own fat harvested from other areas of the body.
- Surgery generally takes 1–2 hours and can be done as an outpatient procedure.
Risks & Safety
Potential risks of a include:
- Swelling, bruising, or mild discomfort
- Infection or bleeding
- Capsular contracture (scar tissue around the implant)
- Implant rupture or displacement
- Changes in nipple or breast sensation (usually temporary)
- Rare complications related to anaesthesia
Choosing a board-certified plastic surgeon ensures safe implant placement, natural-looking results, and minimized risk of complications.
What Does Recovery Look Like?
- First week: Swelling, bruising and mild discomfort are common; supportive bras are recommended.
- Week 2-3: Most patients return to work and light activities; avoid strenuous exercise.
- Weeks 4–6: Swelling continues to subside, and breasts settle into their final position.
- Month 2-3 : Final results are visible, with natural contour, shape, and symmetry.
Summary
Breast augmentation is a safe and effective way to enhance breast size, shape and symmetry. Using implants or fat transfer, it restores volume and improves body proportions while providing long-lasting, natural-looking results. When performed by an experienced surgeon, breast augmentation can significantly boost confidence and aesthetic satisfaction.
