The ultimate in breast augmentation, breast implants & breast lift
Often times, our self esteem can be impacted by our outward
appearance. Our physical characteristics can have a huge impact
on our self confidence, our mental stability and our belief in
our self worth. For many women, the size, shape and look of
their breasts can either boost their self esteem or can drag it
down lower and lower. That is one reason women are turning to
breast augmentation surgery with breast implants. Over the years
however, this procedure has gotten a bit more complicated. There
are a number of different options and decisions to be made when
considering breast augmentation such as what type of fill -
saline or silicone? Do you want a smooth or textured surface
implant? What size and shape do you want? So whether it is a
breast lift, enlargement or reconstruction, you need to consider
all the questions above.
You can choose from a number of different breast implants
including shape and fill. You options include saline, silicone -
yes they are still available and we will discuss this further,
cohesive, soy bean oil, round, tear drop, high profile, low
profile and moderate profile. Silicone implants were banned in
1992 but there are discussions taking place that it may be
lifted in the near future. Silicone is actually still used today
but only for patients in clinical trials who
require
reconstruction or revision surgery. Once you have decided on the
fill, you need to decide the size of your breast augmentation.
The best way to describe to your surgeon the size you are
looking for is with a picture. They will then be able to guide
you in the right direction based on their experience. This same
rule applies with a breast lift. Bring in a photo or picture of
the look you are after.
When determining the shape of your breast implants, you
basically have two options, either round or anatomical or tear
drop. It is important to find one that is as natural looking as
possible. The last thing you want is for your breast
augmentation to look unnatural and out of place. Round implants
are actually placed under the muscle and are believed to be more
natural looking than tear drop implants. Shaped implants tend to
sit in one place which again can make them unnatural looking. A
breast lift can also be accompanied by implants. So not only
will your breasts sit higher, they can be made larger or more
shaped using implants.
