Breast surgery is an advanced cosmetic procedure designed to enhance and shape the breasts using implants. This surgery aims to increase volume, improve shape, and achieve symmetry in the breasts, potentially leading to significant improvements in appearance and self-confidence. Breast implants are available in various types and sizes, providing options to suit individual preferences. This procedure is performed under the supervision of experienced surgeons using advanced techniques to achieve natural and satisfying results.

Breast Cosmetic Surgery or Mammoplasty is one of the most popular cosmetic procedures that helps improve the size and shape of the breasts. This surgery can boost confidence and enhance one's perception of their appearance. Below, we explain the breast surgery process using implants:

Objectives of Breast Surgery:

• Increase breast volume and size
• Improve the shape and symmetry of the breasts
• Correct sagging or changes due to pregnancy, breastfeeding, or weight loss

Types of Implants: Breast implants are categorized into two main types:

1. Silicone Implants: These implants are filled with silicone gel and are favored for their natural feel.
2. Saline Implants: These implants are filled with a saline solution and are known for their adjustable volume after insertion.

Surgical Process:

1. Consultation and Planning:
• Assess patient expectations and goals
• Choose implant type and size
• Determine incision location and implant placement
2. Anesthesia:
• General or local anesthesia for patient comfort during surgery
3. Incision Creation:
• Incisions can be made in various locations such as under the armpit, around the areola, or beneath the breast.
4. Implant Placement:
• Implants can be placed either under the breast tissue or beneath the pectoral muscle.
5. Closing Incisions:
• Use of sutures, surgical strips, or skin adhesives to close incisions
6. Post-Surgery Care:
• Wear compression garments
• Follow doctor's instructions for faster recovery and infection prevention

Advantages and Disadvantages of Breast Implants:

Advantages:
