Breast Surgery: Enhance Your Beauty With Breast Enlargement & Lift By Abigail Aaronson At Isnare.com Ezine Articles

Two popular breast surgeries are breast enlargement and breast lifts. These procedures address a variety of problems and are not only limited to addressing aesthetic issues. Breast surgery can help ease emotional distress and improve confidence and body image by addressing symmetry problems, premature aging, the effects of pregnancy or massive weight loss, and even assist mastectomy patients.

Consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon to help assist you in choosing which procedure or combination thereof is right for you and your individual needs. They can make valuable suggestions and explain the surgery and healing process in detail. If you're dealing with a physical deformity and are concerned about further scarring, there are many new techniques that can minimize scarring and even help reduce the appearance of previous damage.

During enlargement, an incision will be made in one of a few possible areas which include the armpit, the breast crease, around the areola, or through the navel. There are various placement options for implants which you will need to discuss with your plastic surgeon. These include below the muscle, partially below, or on top.

Once the implant is inserted, it will be filled with the proper about of solution if it is saline (silicone are inserted pre-filled) and then the incision will be sutured shut. Recovery time following surgery is generally two weeks before mild activities can be resumed.

During a traditional full breast lift, an "anchor" incision is made by creating a curved cut in the crease of the breast and another extended vertically upwards and around the areola. Excess skin and fat are removed, muscle tightened, and the remaining is sutured tightly together. The areola may be reduced and repositioned to a higher, more youthful placement.

The first few days after surgery you will experience soreness and mild discomfort that will dissipate over a week. You may have to wear special supportive undergarments for a few months after surgery to ensure proper healing. Generally, normal activities can be resumed within two to three weeks, but up to eight weeks may be needed before more strenuous movement can be pursued.

Breast lifts may be done with or without implants, depending on your needs and the surgeon's preferences. If you use implants the surgery will be a combination of enlargement and lift. The results you can expect are perky breasts without saggy or loose skin.

Enlargement and lift surgeries are commonly combined and performed simultaneously for optimal results and shorter recover times. Although augmentation can help the patient receive a subtle lift effect, for women with mild to severe drooping or loose skin a partial or full breast lift may be recommended by the plastic surgeon.

Having two procedures performed simultaneously does not increase potential risks or complications. In fact, it is often easier on the body to undergo them at the same time rather than separately going through two different anesthesia sessions and double the recovery period. If you're interested in breast surgery, consult with a qualified plastic surgeon to discuss all available options.
