Breast Augmentation

What is BA?

Breast Augmentation Surgery is about enlarging the breast area by using either implants or fat.  With implants you can increase the cup size of the breast by two to three sizes, and in some cases even more.  Whereas with fat implant, this can only be increased by one cup size.

How long does the surgery take?

The surgery usually takes around 1-hour under sedation.  Sedation is not to be mistaken with general anaesthesia.

How long is the recovery?

After the breast augmentation surgery, most patients feel sore for a few days mainly around the incision.  This pain is manageable with painkillers.  Patients are usually able to move around within 24-48 hours.  Stitches are then removed after two weeks, and you will be able to submerge in water only after three weeks.  We tell most patients that they can start swimming or having a bath after 3 – 4 weeks.  Patients can being with gentle exercise after 2 weeks, and we ask patients not to raise their arms above their heads for at least 4 – 6 weeks to protect and prevent the scar from stretching.

Breast Implants

We use cohesive silicon gel implants often known better as the ‘gummy bear’ implant.  This essentially means that when the implant is cut in two, the silicon safely remains within its casing to prevent leaking.  This new technology allows for manufacturers to produce lifetime guarantee which comforts patients.
