Breast Enlargement Surgery
Surgery Overview
During surgery to enlarge the breasts, an implant is placed under the breast tissue or under the chest muscle beneath the breast. An implant is a soft silicone shell filled with a saline solution, silicone gel, or another substance, such as methylcellulose gel or hydrogel. Saline solution is currently the material most commonly used to fill breast implants because it can be safely absorbed by the body if the implant leaks or ruptures.
To position the implant, an incision is made in the bottom crease of the breast, the armpit, or along the lower edge of the areola. The implant is inserted through the incision and may be placed under either the breast tissue or the chest muscle beneath the breast. Some doctors believe that putting the implant beneath the chest muscle lowers the risk for a condition called capsular contracture (hardening of tissue surrounding the implant) and interferes less with mammography than when the implant is under the breast tissue but in front of the muscle. After the implant has been carefully adjusted to the correct shape and position, the incision is closed with stitches.
A breast lift may be done at the same time as the breast enlargement. A breast lift can raise sagging or drooping breasts and elevate the nipple and areola. To lift the breasts, excess skin from the bottom of the breast and the area around the areola is removed. The remaining skin is then brought together, which tightens and raises the breast. A breast lift requires larger incisions than a breast enlargement alone. Incisions may extend from the areola down to the crease where the bottom of the breast meets the chest.
Breast enlargements and lifts are usually done as outpatient procedures in a hospital or outpatient surgery center. An overnight stay in the hospital is not needed unless there are complications during surgery. The surgery takes 1 to 2 hours. General Anesthesia is usually used, although local anesthesia or an epidural may be used in some cases.
What To Expect After Surgery
Immediately after the surgery, gauze is taped over the stitched incisions, and the breasts are wrapped in an elastic bandage or supported by a special bra. The stitches may be removed in 7 to 10 days.
Most women have some swelling, bruising, and soreness in their breasts for several days after the procedure. Medicine can help relieve the pain. Swelling and bruising may last for several weeks. Some women also have a burning sensation in their nipples right after surgery. Wearing a supportive bra 24 hours a day can help reduce swelling and support the breasts while they heal.
Most women can resume normal work and social activities within a few days, unless those activities involve heavy lifting or strenuous exercise. Your doctor will tell you when you can return to more vigorous exercise and activities.
You will have scars after breast enlargement surgery, but these are usually in well-concealed areas (such as the crease under the breast, the armpit, or the border of the areola). These procedures are designed to minimize scarring so that incisions are not easily detected. Scars usually fade after several months. Having a breast lift in addition to an enlargement leaves larger, more visible scars.
Why It Is Done
Breast enlargement surgery is done to increase the size of the breasts and enhance their shape. You may decide to get breast implants to:
1.Enhance breasts you consider too small. The definition of what is “too small” varies from woman to woman. There is no universal standard below which breasts are considered too small. If you are content with the size of your breasts, then they are not too small.
2.Restore the size or shape of the breasts after significant weight loss or pregnancy. A breast lift may be done at the same time as the enlargement in these cases.
3. Make the breasts more evenly proportioned. In many women, one breast may be larger or sit higher than the other.
Breast implants may also be used to reconstruct breasts after surgery for breast cancer.
How Well It Works
Breast enlargement surgery can increase your breast size by one or more bra cup sizes. It can also reduce differences in size and shape between your breasts.
Breast implants will not prevent the breasts from sagging as a result of future pregnancy, weight gain or loss, or aging.
Many women who have silicone breast implants will probably need at least one more implant surgery in their lives.
Risks
Breast implants may make it more difficult to detect breast cancer on a mammogram. Other risks of getting breast implants include:
1. Capsular contracture. One of the most common problems caused by breast implants, this condition occurs when scar tissue around the implant hardens and begins to squeeze the implant. It can cause hardening of the breast tissue, rippling in the skin of the breast, and changes in the shape of the breast. It may also be painful. Surgery is sometimes needed to remove the scar tissue or replace the implant when capsular contracture develops.
2. Loss of feeling in the nipples or breast tissue due to nerve damage. Often this is temporary, but it may be permanent in some women.
3. Differences in size or shape of the breasts after surgery.
4. Changes in the implant. Normal activity or an injury to the breast can damage the implant, causing it to leak, deflate, or rupture. Over time, the implant may harden, develop ripples, shift position, or change shape. Surgery may be needed to remove the implant and replace it (if desired) if any of these changes occur.
5. Infection. This can occur at any time, but it typically occurs during the first week after surgery. In some cases of infection, the implant may have to be removed for several months and then replaced.
6. Blood collection under the skin, or hematoma.
7. Abnormal scarring.
What To Think About
Most women who get breast implants are satisfied with the results. You are likely to be happy with the results if you have clear, realistic expectations about the surgery and share these with your doctor. Implants will make your breasts larger and perhaps give them a shape you are more pleased with, but no surgeon can guarantee perfection.
Also keep in mind that:
1. Breast enlargements and lifts do not prevent changes in the breast that occur as a result of future pregnancies, weight gain or loss, or the force of gravity over time.
2. Implants may later need to be surgically removed or replaced if they leak, rupture, wrinkle, change shape, or develop other problems. It is likely that you will have to have a second surgery at some point. Saline implants rupture at a rate of 1% per year.
3. Some of the changes in the breast tissue and skin caused by implants are permanent. If you later have the implants removed, the breasts may have permanent wrinkles, dimples, or other changes.
4. Some studies suggest that breast implants may affect a woman’s ability to breast-feed, but this has not been proven.
Controversy over breast implant safety
The possible connection between silicone gel breast implants and connective tissue disease has been the subject of much research and public debate. The use of implants filled with silicone gel has been restricted in parts of Europe and in Canada, and in the United States between 1992 and 2006. This is because of concerns about harm that could come from silicone gel leaking into the body if an implant leaks or ruptures.
In late 2006, the FDA again approved silicone breast implants. This approval was based on studies of women with silicone implants for up to 4 years. Each maker of these implants is now required to study 40,000 women during the first 10 years they have silicone implants. These studies will begin to show how safe silicone implants are over a woman’s lifetime.
Saline-filled implants are considered safe and are the most commonly used breast implant today. Saline solution can be safely absorbed by the body if the implant leaks or ruptures.
Natural Breast Enlargement
Overview
There are several ways of natural breast enhancement. Some of the most popular these days are:
1. Breast Enhancement Pills
2. Breast Enlargement Cream
3. Herbal Breast Enhancement
Breast Enhancement Pills
Breast enhancement pills have become quite popular in recent years as more and more women are shying away from augmentation surgery. Due to the high costs as well as the risk of serious health complications, women around the world have been seeking out alternatives to surgical procedures.
As with most things, not all breast enlargement pills are created equal. Many of the supplements on the market are subpar, and do not contain any ingredients that can have an effect on breast tissue.
There are however breast enhancement pills that can be effective, and many women have had success with them, with noticeable increases in fullness and shape. The most promising of these supplements are herbal breast enhancers, which contain natural herbal extracts that can promote breast tissue growth. The extracts contain natural estrogens, called phytoestrogens, that can stimulate receptors in the mammary glands, causing the breasts to grow fuller and firmer.
What do these breast enlargement pills contain?
Although the ingredients differ from pill to pill, the most effective supplements contain a variety of powerful herbs such as fenugeek, fennel seed, dong quai root, dandelion root, watercress and kelp, all of which contain high levels of the natural estrogens that have been shown to increase breast size significantly.In addition to their breast-enhancing capabilities, these herbs can also relieve the symptoms of PMS and menopause, reduce water weight gain and improve overall health and well-being. So a high quality breast enhancement pill can actually do much more than just increase the size of your bust.
Herbal Breast Enlhancement
More and more women are looking into herbal breast enhancement as a potential alternative to augmentation surgery. With new evidence emerging touting the benefits of natural enhancers, these supplements may just be the answer for women looking to increase their bust size without surgery.Because of the many complications that can arise with surgical procedures, coupled with the increased cancer risk and high costs, herbal breast enlargement is an appealing option. It has been a featured story on national programs such as Dateline and 20/20, and the scientific evidence is mounting supporting its effectiveness. Although there are a number of herbal enhancers on the market, the mechanism by which they all work is basically the same. The herbal extracts contain natural compounds called phytoestotrogens which bind to estrogen receptors in the mammmary gland and stimulate breast tissue growth. In essence it is a second puberty, promoting a firmer and fuller bust. It is important to note than not all herbal breast enhancement products are created equal, and many of the supplements you will find are subpar. As such it is important to find a high quality supplement with proven herbal ingredients. Look for supplements that contain herbs such as fenugeek, fennel seed, dong quai root, dandelion root, watercress and kelp. These powerful natural extracts contain the most phytoestrogens, and can not only help enlarge the breasts but also relieve PMS, decrease water weight gain and promote general health. So an herbal breast enlargement formula containing these ingredients can offer a number of benefits in addition to increasing bust size. Of course different women will see different results from herbal breast enhancement, just like they would from any natural supplements, as one person’s body is different than the next persons. But with all of the promising data, it sounds like it’s worth trying, if only to avoid an expensive and potentially dangerous surgical procedure
Breast Enlargement Cream
Many women want to know if a breast enlargement cream will work for them. The short answer to this burning question is…probably not.
Due to the potential health complications of augmentation surgery, coupled with high costs and often undesirable results, more and more women are seeking alternatives to improve the size and firmness of their bust. To meet the demand, a variety of products have hit the market, including supplements, pills, creams and pumps. A breast enhancement cream is one of the more popular of these alternative treatments, however there is very little scientific or anecotal evidence of its effectiveness in increasing bust size. Breast creams usually contain ingredients similar to those found in the more effective herbal enhancers, including wild yam, black cohosh, fenugreek, burdock root, kelp and others. However, most of these products do not contain enough active ingredient to have any real effect on breast tissue. Moreover, most do not contain the delivery system necessary to bring these stimulating extracts across the skin barrier, even if they do contain significant amounts of these herbal extracts. A breast enlargement cream might cause a temporary skin swelling due to a reaction to the product, but this is only temporary and should not be confused with real breast growth. Many women are fooled by this initial tingling sensation, thinking to themselves “Wow, it’s working!” Although there have been positive results with natural breast enhancement supplements, according to the women who have tried them breast creams have not yielded similar results. Some women have used breast firming creams and supplements together, but for the most part they believe it was the supplement that had the greater effect. More research needs to be conducted to determine the effectiveness of breast enlargement pills, supplements and other products. If they can in fact produce signicant results, then we believe more women will opt not to have surgery, as the risks and costs are too great to overlook.
