Breast Augmentation - What Are The Facts?

By Partick Peyton

Many years ago, women were really not satisfied with the shape of their breasts and they did few exercises to keep the breasts firm, but in vain. They rather grumbled than doing certain arm exercises to increase the bust.

It is important to take the time to decide how exactly you would like your breast to look. Careful planning is necessary to avoid unsatisfactory results which could lead to future surgeries. Deciding on your perfect shape and size will save you headaches and money in the future.

For many women however breast augmentation is a means of firming up breast that have begun to droop a little or to enhance their figure, in which case they turn to private practitioners whose area of expertise is breast augmentation.

You should be fully aware of the procedures involved in it. The surgeons will explain in detail to you about the pre-surgical activities, the surgery and then post-surgery activities and the healing process.

Another reason you can't look to your favorite celebrity is that celebrities don't often resemble the bodies of average people like you. Your best bet is to see your surgeon for a personalized size consultation.

The two most commonly used breast implant materials are silicone and saline. A silicone breast implant uses a soft silicone shell filled with viscous silicone gel; a saline breast implant also uses a silicone shell, however instead of silicone gel its filled with a saline solution.

For the past hundred years, before the introduction of these saline and silicone based implants, surgeons have been trying out different ways to fill the breasts and regain the firmness. Vincenz Czerny was the first person to carry out the first breast implant by using benign lymphoma and placed it in the breasts of women which later caused breast tumor.

When your consultation is over, your surgeon will use his expertise and personal data collected about you to make a suggestion as to which size would go best with your body. Keep in mind that the surgeon's opinion is not the final decision on what you will look like. You will be unsatisfied if you do not make a sound decision on your own. - 30516
