Procedure For Breast Augmentation

A breast enlargement procedure includes the following steps:

• The patient receives general anaesthesia or sedation to ensure comfort during the entire procedure.
  Our doctors will explain the available options for you.
• Our expert surgeon will make the incision based on your desired outcome. These may vary depending on the type of breast implant you choose, the size of enlargement required, and, most importantly, the patient’s safety.
• The breast implant is carefully inserted and positioned into the pocket created.
• The incisions are closed, and the minimal scarring from these incisions fades in time.
• See results in 3 months – 6 months

Post Surgery

Following breast enlargement surgery, you will be closely monitored for approximately four to 6 hours and discharged after our clinical team consider it safe for you to go home with an adult chaperone. You will be given postoperative instructions for quick and seamless post-surgery recovery along with post op appointment with the nurse.

You may be prescribed painkillers or medication to alleviate the slight breast pain and discomfort following the surgical procedure. This is normal and should subside in a few days. Wear a suitable bra and or breast band, as advised by the operating surgeon. You should follow the surgeon’s directions to heal as quickly as possible. Avoiding smoking will be key to recovery.

Post Surgery Recovery Time

The exact recovery time may vary depending on the type of breast enlargement surgery performed. Sub-glandular implants take a few days, while sub-muscular augmentation might take up to a week.

In both cases, it takes 3-8 weeks to recover fully. It is advised you refrain from driving, strenuous physical activity, and heavy lifting during this sensitive period. You can return to work if you have a desk job within three days following surgery.
