Conquer Pigmentation on Face: Non-Invasive Solutions That Work

If you are looking to enhance your breast into the shape and size of choice, you are not alone!

As of today, breast enhancement is one of the most common plastic surgery procedures performed globally. Many women usually have numerous questions before going through breast implant in Singapore. Here, we have answers to possible questions you might have.

What Is a Breast Implant?

Breast implant, otherwise known as breast augmentation or boob job, is a type of cosmetic surgery that makes use of fat transfer or implant to enhance the shape and size of a woman’s breast.

Women opt for this procedure for various reasons like significant asymmetry, loss of breast volume caused by pregnancy or weight loss, and general breast transformation.

What Implant Do I Choose?

Fat transfer: According to ASPS statistics, breast implant procedures using patient-derived(autologous) fat grafts grew by 72% in 2016. It removes fat from other body parts through liposuction. Once removed, the fat is prepared into a condition suitable for injection into the breasts. With fat transfer, you can only increase by two cup sizes or less.

Saline implants: Saline implants are saline or sterile salt water-filled silicone shells. If these implants leak (on rare occasions), the body will absorb the saline or sterile salt water.

Silicone implant: Silicone implants are filled with medical-grade gel intended to give a more natural look and feel to the breast as opposed to saline implants, particularly in thinner women.

Can Breast Augmentation Fix Sagging Breasts?

An increase in the volume of a breast can worsen the sagging appearance. A mastopexy or breast lift is the right procedure to help correct sagging breasts. Breast lifts or mastopexy involves tightening tissues, extracting any extra, and repositioning the nipples and areolas to more fitting positions. Several patients, especially those who have been through pregnancy and breastfeeding, like to augment and lift their breasts. In this case, combined breast lift and augmentation, or augmentation mastopexy, is recommended.

Who Is an Ideal Breast Implant Candidate?

For silicone implants, the FDA approves only patients from 22 and above. Healthy patients from 18 and above are eligible for saline implants.

The candidates mentioned below are Ideal:

  • Not breastfeeding or pregnant
  • Nonsmokers
  • Fully informed patients with realistic expectations
  • Patients living at a stable and healthy weight

What Are the Possible Risks of This Procedure?

Like every other surgery, there are a few possible risks to be aware of, like:

  • Implant leaks
  • Infection
  • Tenderness and Pain
  • Excessive scar tissue
  • Asymmetry
  • Cosmetic dissatisfaction

Speaking to your cosmetic surgeon about these risks and preparing in advance can help put your concerns to rest and minimize risks.

How Much Does This Surgery Cost?

This surgery has no fixed cost because it can differ depending on your needs and location. The exact cost should be thoroughly discussed with your doctor, however, according to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, breast augmentation ranges from $6,000 to $12,000.

How Long Will the Total Recovery Take?

Recovery differs from one patient to another, so each patient’s recovery time might vary.

Averagely, full recovery time ranges from 4 to 6 weeks. Many patients will substantially improve within one week of surgery, but surgeons usually recommend no strenuous exercise or light activity until a patient fully recovers.

Conclusion

If you’re interested in breast implants or fat grafting Singapore, we recommend you talk to a plastic surgeon. Ensure you ask questions so you can understand what the surgery entails, including the complications, risks, and follow-up care.
