Q: How do you know if Breast Augmentation Surgery is right for you?
This is normally the first question asked by most women considering this operation. This question is best addressed by your surgeon; he/she will make you aware of the best form of breast surgery that is most suitable for you. Your surgeon should also make you aware and help you understand all the risks involved with any procedure they recommend. Only you can decide whether the operation is right for you. Your surgeon will help you achieve the results you so desire. No guarantee can be offered, as all surgical operations have their own inherent possible risks. The exact method of surgery is determined by the amount of loose skin you have in the breast. It is up to you to weigh up the risks versus the potential gains of this cosmetic procedure.
Q: Scarring, will the scar be noticeable? Where will it be?
Generally, the scar for breast implants is placed around the nipple, then from the nipple to the natural crease under the breast and along that crease. Some Surgeries can be completed by making the incision under the arm, in the arm pit region. Scars take time to fade and soften, it can take up to a year, yes a year, before you will see the final appearance of your scar. It is quite normal for the first month or two to be red and raised after your operation. It is advisable to ensure that you follow the guidelines set out by your surgeon to help minimise the scar over time. |
