Breast Augmentation Surgery

Breast Augmentation Surgery in Koramangala, Bangalore 

Introduction

Breast augmentation surgery became popular during the 1960s when two doctors made the first silicone implant. While the method was fairly new and ahead of its time, it quickly caught traction, and has now become very popular. 
Usually, women get this surgery done to boost confidence or to reconstruct their breast due to several medical reasons. 

Overview

Breast augmentation surgery or augmentation mammoplasty is the surgical procedure of enhancing your breast size by putting fat tissue from other parts of your body to give your breasts shape and structure. 

Types of Breast Augmentation Procedure

There are many types of breast augmentation procedures that you can choose from. Please find the types of procedures below.

• Inframammary Fold or Sub-Pectoral Surgery
  This most-performed procedure involves the doctor making a cut in the fold underneath your breast. This allows the doctor to easily put in the implants and not affect your milk-producing function.
• Trans-Axillary
  In this procedure, the surgeon cuts into the armpit either above or below the muscle. Most surgeons use endoscopic cameras to guide them during the surgery. While a small percentage of women opt for this surgery, it has its advantages. This procedure does not mark the breast itself.
• Transumbilical Breast Augmentation (TUBA)
  A relatively new procedure, this surgery involves cutting through the belly button. The implant is placed in a pocket in your breast using an endoscope.

Types of implants

The two types of breast implants that women usually go for and that are recommended by surgeons. They include:

• Saline breast implants
  This breast implant is made with sterile saline water and provides a firm shape to the breasts. If this implant ruptures, the body will naturally absorb the saline water.
• Silicone breast implants
  Made with silicone gel, these implants feel more like natural breast tissue. They are used more often by surgeons for breast augmentation procedures.
