Breast Augmentation: Answers To Your Questions

In its most basic form, breast augmentation is a procedure designed to surgically enhance a woman's chest with either silicone or saline implants

. Various forms of the procedure have been done for decades in the United States and around the world and the surgery is more popular today than ever before. If you've been thinking about having the procedure done but you still have questions, read on and see if the information you're looking for is right here.

Naturally, every woman decides to have breast augmentation for a different reason, one that is her own and is born from a unique set of principles and experiences. Having said that, many of those reasons can be categorized rather broadly. If you fit into one of these categories, it might be a good sign that you are a promising candidate for the procedure.

One of the most common reasons is for increased symmetry between the breasts. Every woman has some degree of discrepancy between them, but for some the difference is highly noticeable and can lead to a degradation of self-esteem. Others may be unhappy with their natural size, are not pleased with what happened to them after pregnancy, or may have had a mastectomy due to cancer. Whatever your reasons, they need only make sense to you.

One concern many potential patients have is what kind of pain is involved with having breast augmentation. Because it is an invasive surgical procedure (meaning incisions will be made in your skin), there will be some degree of pain and discomfort in the days following the surgery. For this, the doctor will prescribe medication to help control it. As far as to what degree the patient will feel pain will depend on the type of surgery and the person. It is not unusual for most women to return to many of their normal activities within only a few days of the procedure.

If you are thinking about having breast augmentation, your primary concern should be finding a good surgeon. Set up a consultation and ask as many questions as you have regarding the procedure, different types of implants, size issues, and the recovery process. They have heard every question before, so don't be embarrassed because you think your question is too dumb. You are talking about a major decision involving your appearance and your health, and you should be armed with as much information as possible before making that decision.
