What is Breast Augmentation Surgery?

Breast augmentation is a procedure that allows the harmoniously reshaping of a woman's breasts through the use of the latest generation of implants. The implants, if chosen correctly, confer an increase in breast volume in harmony with the proportions of a body.

Plastic Surgeons at American Hospital have international experience that can facilitate individuals seeking a breast enlargement procedure choose the most suitable implant for various body types. For breast enlargement, implants and fat grafts are used. Using the right technique significantly reduces the risks associated with the intervention (contractions, rotations, etc.) and the operating times (the entire operation takes about 40 minutes). Normally the procedure does not require the use of annoying drains, hence a pain-free operation. The scar is very small and perfectly hidden even after many years thanks to the correct positioning of the fold.

Procedure for Breast Augmentation Surgery:

Cosmetic surgeons make incisions according to the pre-approved plan to create a pocket of space between the pectoral muscle and breast tissue to accommodate the implant or graft. There are three types of incisions available:

  • The infra-mammary incision - where the incision is made around the nipple
  • The infra-mammary incision - where the cut is made under the breast fold. This is the most popular choice.

Once the procedure is completed, the cuts are sealed with sutures.
