Breast Aesthetic

In recent years, plastic surgery has seen significant advancements, with many improved applications successfully being used to meet patients' aesthetic and functional needs. One of the most popular and developed areas of plastic surgery today is breast aesthetic surgery. These procedures are typically performed in well-equipped clinics under general anesthesia, ensuring patient safety and comfort. Among the various types of breast surgery, breast enlargement, reduction, and lifting are the most commonly sought after by women.

Reasons for Breast Aesthetic Surgery

Women often seek breast aesthetic surgery for a variety of reasons, including:

  • Deformation after pregnancy: Changes in breast shape and size after pregnancy can prompt women to consider surgery.
  • Breast ptosis (sagging): This condition, which often occurs with age or weight fluctuations, can lead to a desire for a more youthful breast appearance.
  • Size differences between breasts: Discrepancies in breast size can affect both aesthetics and confidence.
  • Too large or small breast size: Excessively large breasts can cause physical discomfort, while small breasts may cause psychological distress or dissatisfaction.
  • Psychological issues with large breasts: Women with overly large breasts may experience back pain, neck discomfort, and a lack of self-confidence.
  • Problems with small breasts: Women may feel self-conscious about their breast size and seek surgical enhancement.
  • Post-cancer treatment: Breast reconstruction is often sought after mastectomy or other cancer treatments.
  • Gynecomastia (male breast enlargement): This condition affects men and is often addressed with surgical intervention.

These issues often lead individuals to seek breast aesthetic surgery, aiming to enhance both their physical appearance and emotional well-being.

Breast Reduction Surgery

For women with excessively large breasts, the weight can cause significant physical discomfort, including back and shoulder pain. Large breasts can also interfere with daily activities, making simple tasks more difficult. In such cases, breast reduction surgery becomes a necessary solution. Thanks to advancements in medical technology, breast reduction can now be performed with minimal pain and a relatively quick recovery time. This surgery removes excess tissue and skin, reshaping the breasts into a more manageable size and improving comfort and posture.

Breast Lift Surgery

Breast lifting, or mastopexy, is commonly performed to address sagging or prolapsed breasts. Factors like pregnancy, age, or weight loss can contribute to a loss of firmness and shape. In these cases, breast lifting provides a reliable solution by restoring the breasts to a more youthful and lifted position. This procedure is similar to breast reduction surgery but focuses on tightening and lifting rather than reducing the size of the breasts. It is considered a less invasive option compared to other breast surgeries.

Breast Enlargement Surgery

Breast enlargement (augmentation) is one of the most popular breast surgeries, especially among women who wish to increase the size and fullness of their breasts. This procedure uses breast implants to enhance the size and shape of the breasts. There are two main types of breast prostheses used in augmentation surgery:

  • Drop-shaped prosthesis: Often preferred for a more natural look, especially in women who need a subtle breast enhancement.
  • Round-shaped prosthesis: Offers a fuller appearance and is often chosen by those seeking a more dramatic enhancement.

Additionally, prostheses can vary according to their contents and surface:

  • Silicone-based prostheses: Known for their natural feel and appearance.
  • Saline-based prostheses: Filled with a sterile saltwater solution, these implants are adjustable.
  • Smooth-surfaced prostheses: Offer a softer texture.
  • Textured or rough-surfaced prostheses: These implants are designed to reduce the risk of capsular contracture and provide better stability.

The choice of implant type depends on the patient’s desires, body structure, and the surgeon’s recommendations. After the procedure, patients can enjoy a reshaped and enhanced breast appearance.
