We use a special Technique:
The mini-incision
This is a very small incision made in the skin fold below the breast or the armpit,
and the breast implant is inserted under all the muscles through this tiny incision,
using fine instruments (endoscopes). The breast
tissue is not disturbed, and the short scar
is well concealed within the fold of skin under the breast.
An additional option that patients with ptotic or sagging breasts may elect to have during the breast implant surgery is a mastopexy (breast lift). This procedure involves making incisions around and
below the nipple to lift it upwards.
Recovery Period
During the first 24 to 48 hours after your surgery, you will experience discomfort. Your breasts will be tender. Although every woman’s recovery time is different, you should be able to resume many of your
regular activities within one week.
Should any problems occur after surgery, contact us immediately. This is especially important if your temperature is elevated,
or one of your breasts is noticeably more swollen, tender to touch, painful, red or inflamed.
Potential Risks
There are inherent complications with breast augmentation as there are with any surgery. These risks include: Deflation, Infection, Hematoma, Delayed wound
healing, Capsular contracture, Shifting of the implant, Changes in feeling in the nipple and breast, Making breast tumors harder
to find on X-Rays, Calcium deposits in
the tissue around the implant, Additional
surgeries, etc.
