There are a many reasons why a woman would put herself through the discomfort and risks of cosmetic surgery of the breasts. The reasons could be from her dissatisfaction with the overall shape and size of her breasts or her desire to correct a genetic deformity. Reconstruction of her breasts after breast cancer treatment may also be necessary.
So what is the best breast enhancement procedure? The two main options available today are a silicone gel-filled or saline-filled implant. Silicone provides a more natural look and feel, while saline provides flexibility and thus allows the implant’s size to be increased or decreased easily to create a more uniform look.
The TUBA procedure, or trans-umbilical breast augmentation procedure, is one of the most popular breast augmentation procedures. During this procedure, an incision is made in the belly button, whereas many other surgeries make the incision under the armpit or the bust.
The TUBA procedure is unique, and once the cosmetic surgeon makes the incision in your belly button, she will then tunnel up to the chest area. The surgeon will feed a deflated saline implant through the tunneled section and once the implant is in position (either in front of or behind the muscle), it will be filled with saline solution.
After the TUBA procedure, care should be taken to wear a sports bra that provides more support. You will need to be on light duty for a few weeks following the procedure, as strenuous physical activities can cause harm until you fully recover.
Of course, the most important thing when undergoing any kind of reconstructive surgery is to find a qualified cosmetic surgeon to perform the procedure. You can locate a plastic surgeon that is registered in the American Society of Plastic Surgeons online.
A good plastic surgeon will spend time to evaluate both your mental and physical health with you and provide their unbiased opinion whether augmentation is the right choice for you. You need to know all the benefits, the cost of breast enlargement and risks of the surgery and also know what type of post-surgery care you will require.
