2. Peri-Areolar Breast LIFT: : The Peri-areolar breast lift surgery is also called as the ‘donut lift’ and it is a suitable option for women with mild sagging who would benefit from subtle lifting. The surgeon makes a circular incision around the entire edge of the areola. This is a minimally invasive technique, which correct the mild sagging issue of women.

3. One horizontal incision along the natural breast crease.

What are the Types, shapes & sizes of implants?

A variety of implants made of a silicone shell filled either with silicone gel or saline or both are available to achieve this. The shape and size of the implants vary according to the expectations of the patient.

There are two basic types of breast implants are known as Silicone gel and Saline. Both implants are used the breast implant surgeries and women can enjoy the benefits of the reconstructive breast surgery, after mastectomy or for any cosmetic reason.

The Two basic types of Breast Implants are as follows:

1. Saline-filled Implants: Saline-filled implants are silicone shells filled with sterile salt water, which known as saline. Some saline-filled implants are pre-filled or some are filled during the implant surgery.
2. Silicone gel-filled implants: Silicone gel-filled implants are silicone shells filled with a plastic gel (Silicone). The silicone gel-filled implants the feeling of more like real breasts than saline, but has more risk as well if they leak.

Each type of breast implant has their own pros and cons and come in different sizes and has either smooth or texture shells. Which breast implant would be more suitable for you are decided by the cosmetic surgeon during the consultation session and so it’s all about preference and recommendation.

• Women who feel their breast size is too small or disproportionate to their body.
• Women who have developed uneven breasts and would like to achieve symmetry.
• Women who have lost a large amount of weight and their breasts have shrunken.

How is a breast augmentation surgery performed?

Breast augmentation is typically performed under general anaesthesia. Anaesthesia medications will be administered prior to surgery. The implant is inserted through the incision in the crease between the breast and chest called the inframammary fold and is placed behind the breast tissue or under the chest muscle. 

What is the recovery time for breast augmentation?

What is the risks/Side Effects associated with breast silicone implant?

Since breast implant surgery is a cosmetic procedure includes some possible complications that can be reduced by the recommended medications.

• Breast Pain
• Sensation alternation in the nipple & breast
• Scar tissue forming causes hardening the area around the implant
• Scarring
• Bleeding
• Infection

• Possibility of rupturing or leaking of implants

Both saline and silicone implants have the probability of rupturing or leaking. When saline implants are ruptured, the saline will be safely absorbed by the body, but a silicone leak may stay inside the implant shell or leak outside of the shell. The saline implants show the deflation after rupturing while silicone implants don’t show the any obvious sign and thus also termed as the silent rupture.
