Breast augmentation in Prague

Breast augmentation surgery procedure definition

Breast augmentation of the breasts by means of implants, is a very effective breast surgery, suitable for women with insufficiently developed breasts or when the mammary gland system is shedding and the skin is slightly loose, as may be the case after breast feeding or significant weight loss.

The optimal age limit for breast augmentation surgery varies. It is generally done after the development of the mammary glands is completed, which is not before the age of eighteen. Regarding pregnancy, it is recommended that breast augmentation surgery only be preformed when the woman does not plan any pregnancies because pregnancy and breast-feeding result in changes of volume, producing a negative effect on the results of the breast augmentation surgery. The breast implants do not influence the pregnancy in any way and they will not expose the fetus to any danger. However, there is the risk that the patient will be unable to breast-feed normally due to insufficient lactation. It should be noted that a number of patients were able to breast-feed normally after a breast augmentation.

Any issues related to the size and shape of the breasts needs to be addressed and all motives or psychological reasons need to be addressed. Each breast augmentation is unique to the individual and the surgeon's individual approach towards the patient corresponds accordingly. A state of good health is a natural prerequisite for breast augmentation. In most cases, implants are placed under the mammary gland. With particularly small breasts, when the gland has not actually developed, it is more appropriate to place the implant deeper, under the pectoralis major muscle.

Breast augmentation / boob job

Breast augmentation often known as- boob job- breast enlargement- or breast implants, is a procedure designed to create a fuller bosom. Originally created solely for women who were not blessed-by-nature in this department. The procedure greatly enhances a woman’s confidence and self esteem. Often our clients are teenagers who due to their flat chestedness had become reclusive. No parties, no clubbing, just sitting at home in their bedroom! Sadly peer pressure and media hype, play a big part in influencing youngsters perception of normal and abnormal.

Modern perceptions and media obsession have created an entirely different clientele. Breast augmentation these days is often regarded as something like a fashion accessory, or an off the shelf commodity. Sadly often what we hear is “I have the money and this is what I want” so here is my order! Amazingly often our surgeon’s opinions on size, suitability, and medical indications, are not perceived relevant. Fortunately we have a highly qualified and responsible plastic/reconstructive surgeon who is not afraid to say “NO”!

What is breast augmentation?

This procedure is designed to increase breast size and or/volume. Candidates are mainly those who simply have what is perceived as underdeveloped breasts. Other patients are made up of women wishing to restore lost breast volume following child birth, weight fluctuation, hormonal changes etc.

The breast implant is usually inserted via a very small incision sited in the centre and at the base of the breast where there is a natural fold. Generally within 3 months the incision mark/scar totally disappears. Therefore it can generally be assumed barring post op complications, very poor healing, and failure to follow post op instructions, the procedure should leave no long term visible scar indications.

About breast augmentation procedure

Last approximately 1-2 hours. Usually the implants are placed under the muscle but not always. Much depends on the patient’s anatomy. The procedure is performed under a general anaesthetic, with a full medical examination prior to surgery. A small incision is placed in a natural crease sited at the base of the breast, more or less where it meet the lower chest and rib area. A one night stay is the norm, unless the surgeon feels it necessary to monitor recovery for a little longer. Fluid drains are usually removed on the second day. Recovery is usually around 2 weeks. Whereupon a patient can return to work providing no heavy lifting is involved. A one night stay is the norm, unless the surgeon feels it necessary to monitor recovery for a little longer.

Interestingly the under muscle procedure could NOT be performed using the under arm incision method.

History of the procedure breast augmentation

The technique has been widely used since the 1960's. However the first recorded implant surgery was performed in the Czech Republic (where we take you) around 1915. The technique involved fat transfer from the buttocks and although not long lasting, it did work!!

Choosing your Surgeon

Luckily in the Czech Republic patients do not run the risk of surgeon "lottery" selection. By law your surgeon must be qualified in plastic surgery (or face prison). However some surgeons, more than others, are prepared to go that extra mile. Our 13 years unrivalled experience in this country enables us to chose wisely for you.

Which implats are used for breast augmentation

In our clinic, we use silicon implants by McGHAN and by EUROSILICONE that are believed to be the best products of this type available in the world for breast augmentation. At the present time, two basics implants are available, spherical and anatomical, which are available in a full range of shapes and volumes. The implants may be inserted using three different techniques. The incision can be made in the axilla, around the aerola, or under the breast. This is subject to the type of implant used and the size of the mammary gland.

Breast augmentation - aftercare

How to care about yourself after the breast augmentation operation

Patients stay overnight after the breast augmentation in the clinic and are usually released from the clinic the following morning. Before the patient leaves, the bandages are changed and the drains are removed. Rest is recommended for several days and the patient should avoid physical strain.
The sutures are removed on the 5 to 7th days after breast augmentation surgery. At this time, the patient will be instructed on how to massage the breasts to prevent the formation of a fibrous capsule around the implants and to assist in the formation of the natural shape of the breast. The patient may resume routine activities after 7 to 10 days. One to two months after surgery, the breasts are considered to be stable. After a six-month period, regular check-ups at a mammary clinic are recommended.

Breast augmentation - risks

When a breast augmentation surgery is performed by a qualified plastic surgeon, complications are infrequent and usually minor. Still, individuals vary greatly in their anatomy, their physical reactions, and their healing abilities, and the outcome is never completely predictable. Complications that can occur include hematoma (a collection of blood under the skin that must be removed by the surgeon),sensation disturbances (usually temporary), infection, uneven contour, pigmentation changes and reactions to the anesthesia. Poor healing of the skin is most likely to affect smokers. You can reduce your risks by closely following advices mentioned above both before and after breast augmentation surgery.
