What is breast augmentation?
It is the surgery that increases volume and improves the shape and symmetry of the breasts with implants. The result depends on several technical decisions that Dr. Carlos Andrés Arango makes with you at the consultation, based on real measurements of your chest and tissue.
The decisions that define your result
| Decision | Options |
|---|---|
| Material | Cohesive silicone gel (the most widely used for its natural feel). |
| Shape | Round or anatomical. |
| Profile and volume | Chosen according to the width of your chest and your tissue, not by cup size. |
| Placement | Subglandular, subfascial or submuscular. |
| Incision | Usually the fold under the breast, where the scar stays hidden. |
Two patients with the same cup size may need very different implants. That is why the implant is chosen by measuring, not from a catalog.
Augmentation or breast lift?
If the breast is also sagging, an implant alone will not lift it: you may need a breast lift (with or without an implant). Confusing the two is the most common mistake in breast surgery; the doctor will tell you which one you need.
Recovery
You will wear a post-surgical bra for several weeks. Office work resumes in 5 to 7 days, arm and chest exercise after one month, and the implants finish settling between 3 and 6 months.
