Breast augmentation surgery takes 1-2 hours to complete.
The procedure involves several steps:
1. Anaesthesia: Administering general anaesthesia or intravenous sedation to ensure comfort.
2. Incision: Making an incision in inconspicuous areas to minimize visible scarring. Common incision locations include the inframammary fold, around the areola, or in the armpit.
3. Insertion of Implants: Placing the breast implants either under the pectoral muscle or directly behind the breast tissue.
4. Closing Incisions: Suturing the incisions and applying surgical tape or glue to close the skin.
5. Recovery Room: Monitoring the patient in a recovery room until they are awake and stable.
How long does it take to heal from surgery?
Healing from breast augmentation surgery varies for each patient, but full recovery takes 4-6 weeks. Several factors can influence recovery time, including:
• Implant Size: Larger implants may require a longer recovery period.
• Surgical Skill: The experience and technique of the surgeon can impact healing time.
• Body’s Healing Ability: Individual differences in how quickly the body heals.
