Dissatisfaction with their own weight, leg length and bust size haunts many women around the world. It is worth noting that dissatisfaction with the size of the chest – The most common reason girls see a plastic surgeon. And adherents of plastic surgery perfectly cope with this problem. But is it worth it? Estet-portal decided to look into this sensitive issue and understand whether small breasts are such a serious problem or whether the desire to increase breast size is just a fad.

Micromastia Causes

The size and shape of the breasts depends primarily on the genetic predisposition of the woman. With age, experiencing many changes, she also changes her features. Small breasts can be hereditary. It can also decrease during weight loss or after pregnancy. Often, micromastia does not bring a woman any health problems, except for psychological discomfort. It should be noted that breast size does not affect the possibility of breastfeeding and lactation.

Principles of corrective breast augmentation

Breast plastic surgery or mammoplasty – the most common type of plastic surgery. Every year about a million women do it. In addition to solving the problem of micromastia, mammoplasty is performed to restore the aesthetic appearance of the breast after removal of the mammary gland. In addition to breast augmentation, the shape, shape and size of the nipple are also corrected to give it a more natural look.

Contraindications for breast augmentation

General contraindications for mammoplasty are:

  • infectious diseases;
  • poor blood clotting;
  • diseases of internal organs;
  • diabetes mellitus;
  • oncological diseases;
  • pregnancy and lactation;
  • unstable psychological state; minor age.

It is also worth noting that it is forbidden to drink alcohol and smoke for two weeks before mammoplasty. 

Mammoplasty

Mammoplasty for breast augmentation is performed under general anesthesia and lasts about 1-2 hours. The location of the incision through which the implant will be inserted is determined depending on the individual structure of the breast. Access for penetration into the site of the implant can be done through: the fold under the mammary gland; the edge of the areola; armpit; navel. Placement of the implant also depends on the structure of the breast and the recommendations of the plastic surgeon. It can be placed under:

  • pectoral muscle;
  • mammary gland;
  • partly under the gland, partly under the muscle.

Most often, implants are placed under the pectoral muscle.

Post-operative period

The following complications may occur within a few days after the operation:

  • pain in the chest area;
  • edema;
  • increased sensitivity;
  • pain when moving.

Immediately after the operation, it is necessary to put on a special bra, which will have to be worn for a month to maintain the new shape and volume of the breast. Within a month after the operation, physical activity should be avoided as much as possible. Sports training, in which there is an increased load on the lumbar region, should be excluded for three months. The full result of the operation can be assessed in six months.

Breast augmentation is one of the most requested plastic surgeries in the world. But it is worthwhile to clearly understand how necessary it is to carry out such a procedure. Indeed, often girls who resort to the help of mammoplasty do not have clinical indications for its implementation. Therefore, Estet-portal wishes you to love yourself the way you are and not resort to the help of a plastic surgeon without special need.
