BREAST ENLARGEMENT SURGERY (AUGMENTATION MAMOPLASTY / BREAST SILICONE)
Breast augmentation surgery which is one of the leading elements of female body beauty has a very high satisfaction rate among plastic surgery surgeries. Short operation time, no pain as thought returning to daily life very early, 3-4 cm. The fact that the scars are vague and the breasts appear larger and fuller in return for these increases the demand for this surgery day by day.
Those who have underdeveloped breasts as they should be, and those whose breasts shrink after breastfeeding are candidates for this surgery. Thinking that one's own breasts are small brings these patients to our clinic. Breast augmentation surgery is generally requested by young and middle-aged women. It is necessary to complete the age of 18 for augmentation surgery.
It is appropriate to use silicone in almost all patients. In a limited group of patients, breast chest augmentation with their own fat tissue (fat graft) may be appropriate. The desired volume is obtained by giving the adipose tissue taken from other parts of the body by liposuction to the breasts (breasts). For this, the reserve adipose tissue must be at a sufficient level. Moreover, it should be calculated that approximately half of this volume will melt. For breast chest augmentation, we do not consider it appropriate to use any other filling material other than silicone and fat filling in our clinic.
Breast augmentation patients have difficulty in describing the breast size they want after the surgery and usually give the bra size (such as 80.90). However, this measurement gives the diameter of the rib cage under the breast (chest) and does not change with surgery. The changing measure will be "cup size" (such as A, B, C, D) that expresses fullness. These patients sometimes express themselves that they do not want to use padded bras. How much the breast will be enlarged is decided by taking into account the person's own wishes. However, in this selection, the width of the thorax, the existing breast tissue, the diameter of the breast base, the thickness of the breast skin and subcutaneous tissues, and other body measurements should be considered. As in all our aesthetic applications, we are of the opinion that it should not be exaggerated and should have a natural or near-natural appearance. A size that requires forcing is always a problem in the long term, but it should be of a size that is worth the surgery. Contrary to the American people, we can say that the general desire of the population living in Adana, Antalya, İtanbul, Hatay, Gaziantep and Osmaniye regions that our clinic addresses about this subject.
Since the first silicone surgery in America in 1963, with the development of technology, silicones have developed both in variety and quality. Today the life of fifth generation silicones produced with advanced technology is longer than human life and there is no need to change it. Manufacturers give a lifetime warranty on durability. For now US-made or FDA-approved branded silicones are used in our clinic.
In order to achieve the best aesthetic result in breast augmentation surgery, a very good evaluation of the existing anatomy such as examination of the rib cage, breast tissue skin and subcutaneous thickness, breast symmetry, sagging, breast head, and must be planned accordingly. Subjects such as the place where the incision will be made, whether to place a drop, that is anatomical silicone, or whether to use a round (round) silicone, whether the silicone will be placed under the muscle, under the fascia or under the gland, are decided by discussing in detail with the patient as a result of a very good evaluation of the breasts and body anatomy. Because none of these steps is the perfect choice for every patient. Putting a round silicone on someone who has no breast chest tissue or vice versa can have a very bad aesthetic result. After a detailed breast (chest) examination in your interview with your doctor, he will tell you all these details. Your doctor will ask you for a breast ultrasound before the surgery and a mammogram if you are over 40 years old. If you have had these examinations recently it will be sufficient.
In breast augmentation surgeries, it is generally preferred to place the silicone through an incision made from the under-breast fold. Approximately 3.5-4 cm. The trace of this cut is indistinct and is not visible because it is in the fold. If breast lifting is required along with breast augmentation, this silicone can be placed on the nipple and the sagging can be removed with the skin to be removed. Thus only a round thin scar remains on the nipple and there is no scar at the bottom. If the breast chest needs to be enlarged with silicone and the sagging is too much this time there are traces of breast chest recovery surgery. Normally, only breast augmentation surgery is scarcely thin and small.
Considering that silicone breast augmentation surgeries have been performed for 55 years and approximately 300,000-400,000 women in the United States alone are considered to perform breast augmentation with silicone, the data available in terms of complications are satisfactory in terms of the number of patients and duration. If breast augmentation surgery is performed by an experienced plastic surgeon, undesirable results, ie complications, are very rare. These undesirable consequences, namely complications, include bleeding, infection, prominent raised scar, capsular contracture, movement of the silicone to the unwanted area, asymmetric result, insufficient or excessive enlargement, the silicone touching or extending beyond its borders, temporary or permanent loss of sensation in the nipple. We routinely use drains in case of bleeding. The drain is not to prevent bleeding, but to avoid a serious painful and troublesome process that accumulates inside and is usually withdrawn the next day of the surgery. It is not as painful as it seems. It has been proven that there is no relationship between breast silicones and breast cancer, but few patients with silicone-associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma have been described in the last few years. Since there is no risk to ban the use of silicone today, the FDA has not had any prohibitions.
If a woman with a breast implant becomes pregnant, the baby or mother will not be affected in this process and there will be no problems with breastfeeding. Since the mammary glands will enlarge during the lactation period, the breast also grows and at the end of the lactation, the breast tries to regain its pre-pregnancy state. Some women may have sagging after breastfeeding, as in women who have never had a silicone fitted. For this, if the patient wants to have recovery surgery, the presence of silicone inside is not an obstacle. If a woman who is considering breast augmentation with silicone is planning a pregnancy in the near future, it is best to have surgery after breastfeeding. It is appropriate for someone who has recently been pregnant to have surgery at the earliest three months after breastfeeding ends.
In patients with weak and thin breast skin and subcutaneous tissues, the submuscular plan is more suitable. With this method, a muscle layer is added as a support between the silicone and the skin surface, which contributes to less feeling of the silicone. Today, the semi-muscle plan called Dual 2 plan is a technique that is used quite frequently. With this technique, the upper part of the silicone stays under the muscle, reducing the touchability of the silicone and providing upper fullness at the same time. Contrary to misconceptions, the submuscular plan can also be used in athletes and does not cause any loss of strength. In patients whose own tissues are of sufficient thickness, silicone can be placed under the supramuscular fascia or under the gland tissue.
Before breast aesthetic surgery, it is absolutely necessary to have breast ultrasonography and mammography if over the age of forty. These examinations should be performed and stored even if the patient does not have a mass complaint. A data to be compared after breast surgery is important for routine breast follow-ups. After the surgery, the patient should be in routine breast follow-ups like every woman. Two weeks before the operation, blood thinners such as aspirin and smoking should be stopped. Consumption of herbal products such as green tea, flax seeds, cherry stalk, tomato seeds and all weight loss products should be stopped one week before.
Breast augmentation surgery is an operation that takes approximately 1 hour under general anesthesia. Before you go down to the operating room, your doctor draws you while you are standing and you are taken to the operating room. Four hours after the surgery, you start to eat and drink and get up. In the same evening, you will have pain that has stopped with painkillers. If all is well, you can go home the same evening with the approval of the anesthesiologist. Since the incision site will be closed with a special tape, there is no need for dressing. Two days after the drain is removed (usually at discharge), he takes a normal bath without protecting the surgical site. The stitched area with special tapes can be dried with a hair dryer. You can easily do your daily activities, such as driving, within two to three days after discharge. At the end of the first week, you can return to sports activities such as walking and jogging, and you can swim in the sea. At the end of the third week, you can participate in all sports activities except heavy exercises of the chest and arm. After one and a half months, no sports restrictions are applied. You have to wear the non-wired sports bra day and night for a month. Your breasts will take their final shape in about two weeks.
Routine breast screening techniques suitable for your age can be used after breast augmentation surgery. Silicones do not adversely affect mammography results and reliable screening is possible thanks to experienced radiologists who have evaluated their patients with more technological digital mammography devices in recent years. Again, there is no harm in performing ultrasonography and magnetic resonance.
