What is Breast Aesthetics?

Breast tissue can be deformed due to birth, breastfeeding, aging and developmental disorders. However, it may be deformed depending on aging, or it may have a congenitally too small or large form. This situation can cause people to be dissatisfied with their physical appearance, and therefore to experience self-confidence problems and psychological problems. In addition, being satisfied with one’s physical characteristics is an important factor that reflects on the psychological state in relation to creating a healthy body image.

Breast aesthetics, also known as cosmetic breast surgery, is a type of plastic surgery that is designed to improve the appearance of the breasts. This can involve a variety of procedures, such as breast augmentation, breast lift, breast reduction, breast asymmetry correction, and breast reconstruction.

There are several types of breast aesthetic procedures available, including:

Breast augmentation: This involves the use of breast implants to increase the size and volume of the breasts. Implants can be made of saline or silicone and come in various sizes and shapes.

Breast lift: This procedure is designed to lift and reshape sagging breasts, restoring a more youthful and lifted appearance. It may involve the removal of excess skin and tightening of the breast tissue.

Breast reduction: This procedure involves the removal of excess breast tissue and skin to reduce breast size and alleviate any discomfort or pain associated with large breasts.

Breast reconstruction: This is a procedure that aims to rebuild the breasts after a mastectomy or other breast cancer treatment.

Breast asymmetry correction: This involves correcting any differences in size, shape, or position between the breasts to create a more symmetrical appearance.

Gynecomastia: It is known as breast reduction operation for men. Fat accumulating around the breast due to hormonal reasons and various diseases causes gynecomastia. In patients treated with the liposuction method, the fatty tissue is sucked through a 2-3 mm tube under anesthesia.

Breast aesthetic procedures can have a significant impact on a woman’s self-esteem and confidence, as well as improve her overall quality of life. However, it’s important to note that these procedures are not suitable for everyone, and potential candidates should be in good overall health and have realistic expectations about the results.

The breast aesthetics process can vary depending on the specific procedure being performed, as well as the individual needs and goals of the patient. However, in general, the process typically involves the following steps:

Consultation: The first step in the breast aesthetics process is to schedule a consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon who specializes in breast aesthetics. During this consultation, the surgeon will evaluate your overall health, discuss your goals and expectations, and recommend the most appropriate procedure(s) to help you achieve your desired outcome.

Preparation: Once you have decided to move forward with the procedure, your surgeon will provide you with detailed instructions on how to prepare for the surgery. This may include making certain lifestyle changes, such as quitting smoking or adjusting your medication regimen.

Procedure: The actual breast aesthetics procedure will be performed under general anesthesia in a hospital or surgical facility. The specific techniques used will depend on the procedure being performed. For example, breast augmentation typically involves the placement of breast implants through incisions made in the breast crease, around the areola, or in the armpit, while breast reduction typically involves making incisions around the areola and down the breast.

Recovery: After the procedure is complete, you will be moved to a recovery room where you will be closely monitored as the anesthesia wears off. You may experience some discomfort, swelling, and bruising, which can be managed with pain medication and compression garments. Most patients are able to return to work and resume normal activities within a week or two, although more strenuous activities may need to be avoided for several weeks.

Follow-up: It is important to attend follow-up appointments with your surgeon to monitor your progress and ensure that you are healing properly. Your surgeon may also provide you with additional instructions on how to care for your incisions and manage any lingering discomfort or swelling.

Overall, the breast aesthetics process is designed to be safe, effective, and tailored to the unique needs of each individual patient. By working closely with a skilled and experienced plastic surgeon, you can achieve a more attractive and symmetrical breast appearance, as well as improve your self-confidence and overall quality of life.
