What to Know Before Breast Surgery

Written by Chelsea Kim. Posted in Korean Breast Surgery

What to know before Augmenting your Breasts?

On Breast Surgery through Augmentation

What is Breast Augmentation? To simply put it, it is breast surgery used to enlarge and, or reconstruct one’s breasts through the use of breast implants.
With its fair share of controversy, one might want to adopt the stance that breast surgery is a purely personal affair. For the most part, if it puts no one else’s body at a risk but your own then surely it is no one else’s business but one’s own – especially when it comes to a woman’s breasts.
That said, appropriate emphasis must be put upon one very important thought; anyone seeking breast augmentation does it for themselves, anyone else’s opinion plays second fiddle.

What to know: Before and After the Procedure

Before After
There are two types of breast implants for your picking: they can be made of either silicone or saline. Externally, both are coated with Sillicone however their fillings differ.Filled with a semi-solid gel, Silicone implants have an advantage over Saline for a lesser risk of leakage. That said, there was a study on the effects of silicone implants that did rupture.Some people fancy Saline for it is said to feel more natural, similar to the fluids in the body. Note:  Other factors you might want to keep in mind; texture, size, shape and incision location for the implant. Right after surgery, to reduce inflammation and swelling, use an ice pack to soothe chest area but remember to keep the bandages on until your next visit to the surgeon. 
Under anaesthesia, the surgery will take approximately 1-2 hours. Do expect and prepare yourself for the advent of some bruising. Also, chest, arm or back pains may occur – however, as the muscles around these areas stretches, they will slowly but surely alleviated with time. Scarring may take up to a year to fully diminish.
After surgery, avoid raising arms excessively and do wear a tight fitting top to support your chest. Give your body the time and rest to adjust to your new breasts;  right after surgery, normal activities may be pursued in a week’s time.

Is Breast Augmentation for you?

First and foremost, as it has been mentioned – these procedures are mostly appropriate when one does it for herself and with no one else in mind.
Having said that, every Asian woman seeking breast augmentation might want to know what the experts recommend for asian breast augmentation; dealing with the issue of their smaller frames which may give rise to the possibility for an unnatural, unbalanced look.

Finally, improving on one’s self-image is a courageous task, especially when there are risks and one’s reputation is involved; you’ll be damned if you do or damned if you don’t.
Nonetheless, safety is of utmost importance and where might one look for a professional, certified medical practitioner? Korean plastic surgery is well-regarded in the industry for its best practices, further emphasized by the fact that they are ranked first in the total number of procedures done in a year.
