Breast Augmentation
Breast Augmentation
Breast size may be very small due to genetic reasons or pregnancy or excessive weight loss. Breast augmentation is the process of enlarging the small volume using silicone implants. The breast implant should be of a size that does not impair body integrity by taking into account factors such as weight and height. Your doctor will plan the surgery process according to your request after the preliminary examination.
How is breast augmentation performed? How does the process proceed?
Breast augmentation surgery is performed under general anesthesia, and the patient interview before the procedure determines the possible breast size, implant selection, the area where the implant will be placed and the surgical incision site.
As in many breast surgeries, breast tissue must have completed its development. In this context, it is generally sufficient for the patient to be over the age of 18. There is no seasonal effect and it can be done in any period of the year.
