Breast Augmentation procedure is done to increase the size and proportions of a woman’s breasts. There are many reasons why women choose to have the breast augmentation procedure. Some of these include: enlarging the breasts to make the body more proportional, reshaping and enlarging breasts that have lost their shape due to breast feeding or age and balancing the appearance of breasts that differ in size or shape. Breast implants are not considered lifetime devices. You will likely undergo implant removal with or without replacement over the course of your life; therefore, breast augmentation implant surgery requires careful consideration. Your initial recovery will usually last several days, and your breasts may remain swollen and sensitive to physical contact for a month or longer. You will be required to wear a sports bra for a minimum of six weeks following your breast augmentation surgery. Your sutures will be removed in 7-10 days following your surgery.
