Breast Augmentation

Breast augmentation is the most frequent cosmetic surgery on high-demand among female population of both Europe and America.

Breast augmentation surgery can be done under both local anesthesia and general anesthesia; the latter is preferred by majority of plastic surgeons.

The implants which are placed under the mammary glands are divided into silicone implants and saline-filled implants. These are widely used implants in both the United States and in the countries of the European Community.

The access incisions vary and can be subarachnoid access (incision under the mammary gland), peripheral (incision under the pectoral muscles) or from the axillary cavity.

Breast augmentation is a minor surgery with impressive immediate long lasting results. Of course, as in all medical procedures, first proper cooperation between the patient and the attending medical doctor should be established with the correct case assessment, correct choice of implant and place of access incisions. Thus the best aesthetic result can be achieved.
