Breast augmentation is a surgical procedure undertaken to improve the aesthetic appearance of the female breast, usually by enhancing the size and, occasionally, to improve the shape. Each patient is an individual and certain techniques may be appropriate for some patients and not others depending on existing chest wall anatomy, breast size and shape. At all times expectations must be realistic to avoid disappointment and these should be carefully discussed with your surgeon. The aim is to increase the size of the breast using an implant placed in a pocket behind the breast tissue. The most commonly used implant is a silicone envelope filled with a soft silicone gel whereas saline (salt water) filled implants are available but seldom used. The goal is to produce breasts of normal proportion to the patient’s body, whilst maintaining function, softness and sensitivity. It should be noted that surgery cannot create younger skin or eliminate stretch marks. It does not address personal or psychological issues and should not be used as a solution to them. Minor degrees of drooping (ptosis) of the breast may be improved, however, significant drooping will require additional lifting surgery with or without augmentation, which can be more complex. Modern breast implants are certified medical grade devices, which are perfectly safe and have demonstrated no body harm over many investigative studies. Patients usually stay in hospital for one night following surgery although some can go home on the same day. Post surgery, a supportive undergarment is worn for about two weeks to keep implants in place and to attain the desired breast shape. For the first week women should avoid lifting weights or any exercises involving arm movement, chest or abdominal strain. Regular exercise should only be resumed after six weeks and built up gradually as comfort allows. Dr Salil Bharadwaj is the consultant plastic surgeon at Bahrain Specialist Hospital. Call 13 381-338.
