Breast augmentation

  Breast lift is the same popular kind of mammoplasty (breast plasty), as is breast augmentation.

Unfortunately, with age, most women have mammary gland descent - this is facilitated by sudden jumps in body weight, stretching of tissues due to lactation and breastfeeding, loss of elasticity by tissues, which increases with age. Mammoplasty restores the chest, while setting the desired height of the mammary glands and allows you to keep their size or achieve the required.
With a breast lift, three types of incisions are used: the first traditional "anchor", the second vertical and the third in the areola. The doctor selects the procedure of the operation, depending on the degree, shape of the chest and desire of the patient.
If the mammary gland has a sufficient volume and you just need to improve its shape, this operation is called mastopexy. With reduction mammoplasty , breast reduction occurs. With insufficient volume of mammary glands, the lift is combined with their increase, which gives the best result, allowing to reduce the length of the seam. Breast augmentation is carried out with the help of silicone implant or lipofilling. But lipofilling has limitations and is applied when it is required to increase the size not more than by 0.5 size.

The surgeon will coordinate all the details of the operation with the patient before it begins. Breast lift occurs under anesthesia, the doctor removes excess skin and forms the gland. Sutures are removed after 12-14 days, but in the hospital the patient is maximum two days. In a week, you can already lead an ordinary life, limiting physical activity for 1-2 months. During the recovery period, you need to walk in special underwear, and the result will be visible after 8-12 months.

Breast lift, like any other surgical operation, has its contraindications: these are various infections, oncological diseases, diabetes mellitus, blood clotting disorder and internal organs in the period of exacerbation.

Many people ask themselves, when is it best to do a breast lift?

If you have finished breastfeeding and want to make a lift, then you need to wait for the complete stop of lactation and weight stabilization - this occurs within 6-8 months. Traces after surgery can be around the areola, under the gland and under the breast. The result of the operation usually holds until another large fluctuation in body weight. Breast augmentation reduces the number and length of stitches. Breast reduction is recommended until a harmonious third size, the traces will be similar, as with a suspender.
