What to think about before having breast augmentation.

breast augmentation Los AngelesIt is important to think to think of all the factors when having breast augmentation Los Angeles surgeons suggest you consider speaking to a plastic surgeon about what goes into breast augmentation after the implants. Not only will you look differently after this surgery, but you will need to consider a lifetime of changes, and protecting your breasts that will go into this.

One thing you must decide about your implants is whether you want silicone, saline or would maybe like to wait till gummy bear implants are available to you. Silicone implants are said to have more of a natural feel because silicone mimics the feel human fat closely, the implants are filled before the surgery and are available to women of age 22 and older for augmentation and for women of all ages for reconstruction. Saline Breast Implants Beverly Hills patients say they have more of a tougher unnatural feel. These implants are inserted and filled with saline mainly during the surgery. Saline implants are available to women 18 years of age and older for augmentation and for all ages for reconstruction. Gummy Bear implants are not yet available to women who aren’t participating in the clinical study but for now they are said to feel very natural and last longer without misshaping or rupturing than both saline and silicone implants.

Another thing you must think about prior to the surgery is the risk that goes into having breast implants. The risks that are involved are:
· breast pain
· scar tissue that might damage shape of implants
· need for additional surgery
· implant leak or rupture

Both saline and silicone implants impose these risks. Though these risks may seem a bit intimidating they aren’t as scary as they sound. For example if your saline implant ruptures your breast will flatten and your body will absorb the saline without causing any health problems and you might need surgery to remove the silicone shell. When a silicone implant ruptures you may or may not notice because sometimes your breast will not lose its shape you might not know that they have leaked or ruptured till you have a routine MRI. Some doctors have associated breast pain with breast augmentation but in Los Angeles breast implants are common and doctors say most women don’t report any breast pain out of the normal for them. The other and most intimidating factor for some women is that breast augmentation might post a need for additional surgery in the future, but this is because breast implants aren’t guaranteed to last a life time. You might have to have another surgery to correct leakage or other cosmetic issues. Some women after time decide to have their implants removed although it is highly unlikely it has happened in Beverly Hills breast augmentation is very common, safe and is being improved more everyday.
