What is augmentation mammoplasty?
Augmentation mammoplasty is the most demanded cosmetic surgery in our country. It is a surgical intervention in which, through a breast prosthesis, the breast volume is increased. In addition, this surgery allows us to modify some characteristics of the breast to give a more pleasant shape and correct small deformations.
This surgery is indicated for women who have:
- Small moms
- Mammary asymmetries
- Empty breasts after breastfeeding.
- Mamas slightly fallen
- First step in the reassignment of sex from man to woman.
What is the best size in the breast augmentation surgery?
In this type of surgery it is important to know the type of breast that is desired. Current techniques allow creating a multitude of different shapes and volumes for the same person. Therefore, it is important to have an idea of the volume to be achieved, the shape of the chest, the neckline, where the scar is wanted or how together we would like to have the breasts. The plastic surgeon will be in charge of analyzing the anatomy of each woman and considering the most appropriate type of implant taking into account the wishes of the patients.
What type of breast prostheses are there?
They are distinguished mainly between anatomical and round implants.
The anatomical ones are specially designed to achieve a more natural size and shape, since they achieve greater filling of the lower pole with an adequate transition of the upper pole. It is shaped like a drop, like a breast.
The round ones are prostheses with little base and are the most used type of implant. They fill the upper pole a lot, which provides a very attractive neckline.
Another way to classify prostheses is based on the texture of their surface. Thus, these can be smooth and rough, both with advantages and disadvantages.
The smooth ones form a very thin capsule, although with a high risk of developing capsular contracture, especially when the implant is placed in a subglandular plane. In contrast, the rough ones have lower capsular contracture ratio because it prevents the formation of a capsule as organized as in the smooth ones. In addition, the irregular surface hinders the migration and rotation of the implant, since it confers a certain degree of adherence to the tissues.
According to its composition we also distinguish between silicone implants and breast breast implants.
Serum prostheses have the great advantage of being very safe in case of breakage, but they also have great disadvantages. The first is that the result is not as natural as that generated with silicone prostheses. The touch is like that of a balloon full of water, and even, in some patients, the noise of the serum can be heard when moving the chest. In addition, they tend to deflate over time. They will hardly be prostheses that will be perfect beyond 10 years.
Silicone prostheses are the most used in our country. They consist of a solid silicone cover inside of which there is a silicone gel. These implants have more consistency and although they break, their contents do not move through the body. They have a high durability, although as an inconvenience it could be noted that they have a more artificial result to the touch.
What type of scar will remain after the surgery?
The aesthetic quality of the scars after a breast augmentation depends on the route used for the implantation of the breast prosthesis.
The axillary incision is mainly used to insert round prostheses. This position makes it very difficult to obtain the aesthetic symmetry of the two implants. It has the advantage that the scar is hidden in the armpit and although it is not of quality it is less perceived.
The submammary groove has the disadvantage of leaving a scar more visible than in the case of the armpits. It is the incision that is made to insert an anatomical prosthesis or larger prostheses that are not implantable by the areolar incision.
The areola is the incision used for round prostheses. The scars manage to go unnoticed. The areola incision can be subareolar or transareolo-submaxillary, with the intention of further camouflaging the incision.
How is the post operative of breast augmentation surgery?
The usual after a breast augmentation is that the body of the woman suffers a slight stress after the surgery. Therefore, it is advisable to rest during the first days, in which it is advised that the patient sleep with the head of the bed slightly inclined, to avoid inflammation. The discomfort in the intervened area are frequent, but can be relieved with analgesics. Although the pain varies according to the patient, it is known that when the prosthesis is placed submuscular there is more discomfort than when it is subglandular.
At 24 hours after surgery, the surgeon replaces the postoperative bandage with an anatomical bra. Its use is important, sometimes also accompanied by a breast band, to help immobilize the breast and avoid any movement that can harm the outcome of the surgery. Although it may be somewhat uncomfortable, wearing this anatomical bra for about a month, during the 24 hours of the day, facilitates the evolution is positive and the patient returns to her normal life quickly.
How much time do I need to wait to get back to sports?
Generally After 3 or 4 weeks you can start practicing sport gradually. Especially you have to be careful with exercises that work the pectoral area. It is important to clarify that the return to exercise should be gentle and, above all, it is recommended to practice sports with a sports bra.
