Introduction
Breast augmentation with implants requires a comprehensive medical examination, including a general physical exam and breast evaluation, to rule out contraindications for surgery. It is recommended to choose the shape and material of the implant according to your individual circumstances before surgery, aiming to achieve satisfactory results. After surgery, it is advised to avoid sexual activity in the short term, refrain from forcefully massaging the breasts, avoid lifting heavy objects, and limit excessive upper limb movements.
Some female friends, for various reasons, hope to enhance their personal appearance and attractiveness through breast augmentation with implants. So, what are the methods of breast augmentation using implants?
What Are the Methods of Breast Augmentation with Implants?
First, implants can be placed through an incision around the areola—either above or below the border where the areola meets the surrounding skin. The implant is then inserted through the breast tissue and fascia and sutured into place.
Second, implants can be inserted through the armpit (axillary approach). With arms raised, the surgeon locates the boundary between the armpit and chest, makes an incision, inserts the implant, firmly presses it into position to prevent displacement, and then sutures the incision. Alternatively, the implant can be placed beneath the entire lower portion of the breast via an incision made along the inframammary fold (the crease under the breast), inserting the implant from bottom to top and then closing the wound. However, this method tends to leave a more visible scar and lacks concealment.
In addition, comprehensive medical evaluations are required before breast augmentation surgery, including general physical exams and specific breast examinations, to rule out any contraindications for surgery. It's recommended that patients choose the shape and material of the implant based on their individual circumstances to achieve optimal, satisfactory results. After surgery, it's advised to avoid sexual activity in the short term, refrain from massaging the breasts vigorously, avoid lifting heavy objects, and limit excessive upper-body movements—mainly to prevent implant displacement. Strict dietary control is also important; avoid oily, spicy, and irritating foods. It is highly recommended to choose a reputable hospital with experienced professionals. We hope this information is helpful to you. Wishing you good health and happiness!
