Breast Augmentation

If you’re thinking about getting breast implants because:
are innately weak or slender.
have shrunk as a result of pregnancy, weight loss, or simple age.
Discordant in terms of size and/or shape.
Inability to grow or develop normally.
While breast augmentation can improve the appearance of mild sagging breasts, it will not be able to change the appearance of severely sagging breasts. Patients who want perkier looking breasts may want to consider a breast lift in addition to breast augmentation.

The first step in getting breast implants is to schedule a consultation with your surgeon during which you will talk about what you hope to achieve, your current health, and your lifestyle. You should come to this consultation with a list of questions and concerns, and you should also be prepared to talk about your reasons for treatment, expectations, current medical conditions (including allergies), medications, and use of alcohol, tobacco, and drugs, as well as your personal and family histories.
Your doctor may also want to assess your general health and risk factors, go over possible complications, examine and measure your breasts, and take photographs of them for your medical records.

The Vilafortuny staff will provide you with pre-op instructions for your breast augmentation. Before your surgery, you may need to do a few things.
Clinical evaluation and/or laboratory analysis.
The use of a mammogram prior to breast surgery can aid in the early detection of any changes that may occur in the breast tissue.
Make some changes to your current medication regimen or start taking something new.
Do not continue smoking.
Do not take any non-steroidal anti-­inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs).
You should make plans for getting back home after the operation.

You will be given anesthesia before and during the operation. Our plastic surgeons will advise you on the best form of anesthesia, which may range from intravenous sedation to full-blown general anesthesia.

The incision used in a breast augmentation procedure can vary from patient to patient and is determined by factors such as the size and shape of the patient’s breasts before surgery, the size and type of breast implants desired, the patient’s personal preferences, and the surgeon’s personal preferences.

Before your cosmetic surgery, you and your doctor will discuss this in detail. Breast implants can either be filled with saline or silicone. Both are available in a variety of forms and sizes, and they each have their own set of advantages.

The breast implant is placed in a pocket created under or over the pectoral muscle after an incision has been made. The same considerations that determine the incision type will also influence its placement.

Sutures, skin adhesive, or surgical tape will be used to close the skin incisions after the breast implants have been positioned and placed. These scars from the incisions will eventually heal.

After the surgery, your plastic surgeon will be available to answer any questions you may have and will also give you detailed written instructions.
Home care after surgery is planned.
Drug orders and prescriptions.
Scheduled follow­up visits.
mammography after breast cancer surgery.
Including information about breast implants in a registry.
Bandaging your breasts after surgery is common practice in order to limit post-op pain and discomfort. It’s normal to feel some discomfort in the days following surgery; your doctor can prescribe pain medication to help. While the average woman can go back to work after a week, it’s best to avoid any strenuous physical activity for at least two weeks. Scarring is unavoidable, but that the incision lines will fade over the next few months.
Also, there are risks associated with any type of surgery: bleeding, infection, and adverse reaction to anaesthesia are rare, but they can happen. You can reduce your chances of experiencing complications by carefully following your pre- and post-operative care instructions.

Facility fees, anesthesia fees, surgeon fees, breast implants, medication, and testing are just some of the additional expenses that may be incurred during a breast augmentation procedure. When breast augmentation is combined with another procedure, like a breast lift or tummy tuck, the total cost will increase.
While it’s understandable that you might be tempted by lower prices, it’s critical that you only have breast augmentation done by a trained, board-certified plastic surgeon. Dr. Trelles assures you that this procedure guarantees your health and success.

You will see immediate results from breast augmentation surgery, and your appearance will continue to improve as you heal. After recovering from breast augmentation, most women report feeling more confident in themselves.
