What is Breast Augmentation Surgery?
Breast augmentation surgery is a cosmetic procedure designed to enhance the size and shape of a woman’s breasts. This surgery involves placing implants or using fat transfer to increase breast volume, improve breast symmetry, or restore breast volume lost after weight reduction or pregnancy. The procedure can significantly boost self-confidence and allow women to feel more comfortable in various styles of clothing and swimwear.
Recovery After Breast Augmentation Surgery, Post-Surgical Care
After a post-surgical recovery period of 24 to 48 hours and an additional reduced-activity period of a few days, you will likely experience some discomfort and swelling for a few weeks. Most patients can resume normal activity and exercise at the direction of their plastic surgeon. Over time, post-surgical swelling will decrease, and incision lines will fade.
You will be given specific instructions that may include:
- How to care for your breasts following surgery
- Medications to apply or take orally to aid healing and reduce the risk of infection
- When to follow up with your plastic surgeon
- Results of Breast Augmentation Surgery
Immediate Results and Long-Term Outcomes
The results of your breast augmentation surgery will be immediately visible. However, it may take some time for swelling to subside and for the breasts to settle into their final position.
The results of your breast augmentation surgery will be long-lasting. You will be able to wear certain styles of clothing and swim wear that many women who have not had breast augmentation may also have a choice in self-confidence. However, it’s important to know that implants are not permanent and may require replacement or revision during your lifetime. You should expect to have future appointments to discuss changes in your breasts.
Over time, your breasts can change due to aging, weight fluctuations, hormonal factors, and gravity. If, after a period of years, you become dissatisfied with the appearance of your breasts, you may choose to undergo a breast lift or implant exchange to restore a more youthful contour.
Essential Questions to Ask Your Plastic Surgeon
Be sure to ask your plastic surgeon specific questions about what you can expect during your individual recovery period:
- Where will I be taken after my surgery is complete?
- What medication will I be given or prescribed after surgery?
- Will I have dressings/bandages after surgery?
- When will they be removed?
- Are stitches removed? When?
- When can I resume normal activity and exercise?
- When do I return for follow-up care?
