Silicone surgery, which affects a person's psychology and quality of life, is one of the aesthetic operations preferred especially by women. Problems such as lack of breast tissue due to genetic factors, sagging after pregnancy, loss of breast tissue after cancer treatment, breast asymmetry can be solved, as well as lifting and breast lift procedures can be performed in combination for sagging and small volume breasts.
Important factors in determining implant size
The surgery is performed with breast prostheses placed in the breast tissue or under the muscle. When determining the implant size, the patient's wishes should be taken into consideration and a size appropriate to the patient's height, rib cage width, shoulder width, density of existing breast tissue and skin structure should be selected. The base diameter and projection of the implant are other important factors in determining the shape of the breast.
Silicone Shape
The shapes of silicone implants are basically “round” and “drop”. They can be grouped into two main groups: "shaped anatomical type". Since the silicone gel in the round implant is distributed homogeneously throughout the entire area, there is no change in the shape of the breast even if the silicone rotates after the surgery. Another advantage is that it provides a fuller appearance in the upper half of the breast. It is more appropriate to choose round implants along with lift surgery, especially in patients with sagging problems. The base shape of anatomical type silicones is not circular, so correct placement of the implant is important. In order to prevent the implant from rotating, this type of silicone has a rough structure and is generally preferred in patients with zero breast tissue.
The operation takes 1 to 2 hours.
Silicone application does not prevent breastfeeding.
Scars decrease to a minimum level within 1 year.
After the operation, which is placed under the muscle, the first 2-3 days, the arms experience pain similar to the pain felt after sports. Then the person can continue his daily life.
