Breast enlargement or breast augmentation by means of silicone implants or saline implants, is a very effective cosmetic (plastic) surgery, suitable for women with insufficiently developed breasts or when the mammary gland system is shedding and the skin is slightly loose, as may be the case after breast feeding or significant weight loss.

The optimal age limit for breast enlargement surgery varies. It is generally done after the development of the mammary glands is completed, which is not before the age of eighteen.
Regarding pregnancy, it is recommended that breast enlargement or breast augmentation only be performed when the woman does not plan any pregnancies because pregnancy and breast-feeding result in changes of volume of the breast , producing a negative effect on the results of the breast enlargement or breast augmentation plastic surgery.
The breast implants do not influence the pregnancy in any way and they will not expose the foetus to any danger. However, there is the risk that the patient will be unable to breast-feed normally due to insufficient lactation. It should be noted that a number of patients were able to breast-feed normally after a breast augmentation orbreast enlargement .

The initial and very important step to be taken before any decision is made about breast enlargement or breast augmentation cosmetic surgery is a personal consultation with an experienced and licensed cosmetic
surgeon. Any issues related to the size and shape of the breasts needs to be addressed and all motives or psychological reasons need to be addressed.
Each cosmetic surgery is unique to the individual and the cosmetic surgeon’s individual approach towards the patient corresponds accordingly.
A state of good health is a natural prerequisite.

In most cases, silicone breast implants or saline breast implants are placed under the mammary gland. With particularly small breasts, when the gland has not actually developed, it is more appropriate to place the implant deeper within the breast, under the pectoralis major muscle. The breast implants may be inserted using three different techniques. The incision can be made in the axilla, around the aerola, or under the breast.

Breast enlargement - The procedure

Before the breast enlargement or breast augmentation cosmetic surgery operation, drawings are made on the breast with the patient standing. The breast enlargement or breast augmentation is performed under general anesthesia. Applying an elastic bandage to secure the silicone breast implants into the desired position completes the cosmetic surgery procedure.
