What is breast augmentation in Turkey?

Breast augmentation surgery, also termed breast enlargement, is a type of cosmetic surgery done to increase the size and reshaping of the breasts to make them more symmetrical. This usually involves placing breast implants, either of silicone gel or saline, below the breast tissue or the chest wall. It is done by an experienced plastic surgeon who is well conversant with cosmetic surgery procedures. The ideal candidates for breast augmentation are normally females who are healthy both physically and sexually developed females who are without any breast malfunctions and those who seek breast surgery due to having less size or uneven bust. Breast implant surgery has become a favorite in Turkey due to the affordable breast augmentation cost, good healthcare system, and experienced surgeons. Even though breast augmentation complications are rare, there are some of them: infection, implant rupture, and capsular contracture – the tightening of the fibrous layer around the implant.

Breast Augmentation Candidates in Turkey

Some people are genetically born with uneven or small breast size or as they age, or after giving birth and breastfeeding, they may not be content with their breast size. This surgery corrects this. Also, the asymmetrical breast where one breast is significantly smaller or has a different shape than the other attracts people to this intervention. Some candidates may also do implants to enhance body symmetry and proportions, in a bid to get proportional body size. Other than physical issues, many women opt to undergo this surgery to improve their psychological well-being, including boosting their confidence. The patients who opt for breast augmentation are those with no major underlying diseases, no smoking habits, and those with reasonable expectancies of the results of the surgery.

What are the advantages of breast augmentation in Turkey?

Enhanced body proportions

Besides, correcting the asymmetry, breast augmentation is aimed at changing the proportions of the whole figure and making it more harmonic.

Boost in self-confidence

It is clear many patients are more confident about their bodies and feel much better about themselves.

Restoration after mastectomy

This surgery is also recommended for women who have had a mastectomy since the procedure assists them in having neatly shaped breasts.

Enhancement of the shape and size of the breast.

In addition to enlargement, breast augmentation reshapes and increases the volume of the breasts thus providing a youthful appearance.

Taller women and women with larger busts

Because of the changes in their size, patients can dress in better-fitting clothes and lingerie; and this contributes to improvement in body image.

Reversing age-related changes

It is used to treat the consequences of aging, pregnancy, and weight loss as it helps to return the breasts to their younger shape.

Durable and long-lasting outcomes

The effects of breast augmentation are long-standing; implants retain their shape for several years, thus not requiring constant touch-ups.

How to prepare for breast augmentation in Turkey?

To ensure the surgery is fruitful and the risks reduced, certain preparations should be made before going for the breast augmentation surgery. You should talk with your surgeon regarding how the surgery is done, the risks, and the post-operation details. Talk also about tests and the x-rays. Stop smoking before the surgery because nicotine reduces your blood circulation and the body’s ability to heal. Do not take aspirin, antiplatelet drugs, or herbal medications that have a blood-thinning cause of bleeding. Ensure you feed on a balanced diet to help increase your body's immunity and help in fast healing. Sleep well, and minimize stress, for a better breast augmentation recovery period. He or she will also advise you on what to do after surgery for better breast augmentation recovery.

Breast augmentation steps?

Consultation and surgical planning

The breast augmentation process starts with the preoperative assessment in which the surgeon captures the intent of the patient and the breast tissue. In this discussion, the surgeons will advise on the kind of implant to use whether silicone or saline, and the size and positioning of the implant. It remains a critical stage in the planning process where the surgery is done to fit the patient with the expected satisfactory result.

Pre-surgical marking

The surgeon makes markings on the patient’s breasts. Such markings show the natural breast fold, the intended implant position as well as the actual incision locations. Another important step is marking so that the implants will be placed in an ideal position for the breasts to be symmetrical and have the right shape.

Anesthesia administration

The surgeon administers anesthesia to numb the surgery area. Patients don't feel pain during the procedure.

Breast augmentation incisions

The surgeon decides on the type of incision depending on the structure of the body part and the desired aesthetic result. The options include:

Inframammary incision: Also known as inframammary incision, this type of cut is made under the breast fold and allows for very accurate implant positioning and leaves the scar very hard to find.

Periareolar incision: Done at the periphery of the areola, this technique buries the scar in the different skin shades between the areola and the breast skin.

Transaxillary incision: This takes a surgical approach that is performed in the armpit and results in minimal scarring on the actual breast tissue but it does present a very technical procedure.

Creating the implant pocket

The surgeon then forms a pocket for the implant, these are inserted either below the glandular tissue of the breast or beneath the pectoral muscle of the chest. The placement is selected according to the patient’s morphology and the expected outcome; all the options have advantages and disadvantages in terms of aesthetics and sensation.

Implant insertion and positioning

These implants are carefully placed into the pockets of the choice. The surgery then involves very delicate positioning to ensure that the symmetry is correct, the position is correct, and the augmentation of the breast contour is as natural as it can be.

Closure and post-surgical dressing

Once the implants are well placed the incisions are sutured. It is then wrapped with bandages or a surgical bra depending on the type of surgery that has been done to the breast.

Does breast enlargement surgery hurt?

No, breast augmentation surgery itself is not painful since the operation is usually done under general anesthesia where you are put to sleep.

After surgery, as the effect of anesthesia wears off, some degree of discomfort is normal because of the body’s intrinsic response to surgery, including soreness and inflammation in the breast tissue. The pain is usually treated by pain relievers which may include Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs such as ibuprofen or may be by other drugs prescribed by a doctor. Other measures that can be taken to address the problem of breast swelling are using ice packs to treat the breasts regularly so that they become numb and also reduce their size. It is suggested that the patient should rest in a back position with the head and chest slightly raised to avoid pressure on the implants. One should keep track of the pain that is felt; if the pain intensifies or does not subside after some time, one should consult the surgeon for the possibility of having complications.

Are breast augmentation scars permanent?

Yes, breast augmentation scars are permanent, however, they become faint with time.

In most cases, surgeons locate breast augmentation incisions where they are likely to be obscured; for instance, in the natural folds of the breast or around the areolar region. Scar tissue is at first often red and swollen, and gradually becomes paler and closer in texture to normal skin. But aside from that, the scars become less visible if precautions like avoiding exposure to the sun are taken, and if aquaphor silicone scar treatment is applied regularly. The majority of breast augmentation scars are usually fine and can easily be concealed under clothing and even swimming costumes. If the scars are allowed to heal correctly, they do not last long and after some years, one cannot even notice that one was scarred.

Is breast augmentation surgery safe in Turkey?

Yes, breast augmentation surgery in Turkey is safe.

Health care is well regulated in the country and there are highly skilled and trained and internationally trained plastic surgeons. Turkey’s facilities have a modern background. The quality of the health care facilities in Turkey, including the hospitals are in congruence with the international standards of health care and hygiene. However, like any other operation, the key determinant of its safety lies in the choice of a surgeon and the facility – thus a need to search and verify credentials. Patients should consider the surgeon portfolios, patient reviews, and facility certifications so that they can be certain of a good and safe experience.

How is breast size decided for breast augmentation?

The choice of breast implant size is a result of consultation between the patient, the anatomy of the patient, and the surgeon. After that, surgeons use certain criteria such as the body build of the patient, chest width, and the amount of breast tissue determined to advise breast augmentation size that will give the patient a proportional look. During consultation with patients, there are several aids, such as 3D imaging, and sizes, that can be employed to show the patient possible results. The aim is to select a size that would make the figure of the patient look better, plus would not pose complications such as skin stretching or implant problems. Also, the patient’s activity levels are incorporated to determine that the chosen size is proportional and feasible. Finally, the decision is made together with the patient, which guarantees that the outcome corresponds to the patient’s expectations in terms of looks and morphology.

How long do silicone prostheses last?

Usually, silicone breast implants last for about 15-20 years but many still be in use for many more years depending on the care taken.

The duration of these implants depends on the quality of the implant materials, the methods that have been used in surgery, and the behavior of the patient after the surgery. Sometimes, the replacement is needed earlier due to such risks as implant rupture, capsular contracture, or natural changes in the breast tissue. These risks also depend on the experience and skill of the surgeon to ensure that the implants are placed in the best manner that would give them more longevity. Routine follow-ups and imaging are advised to assess the condition of the implants and to identify any problems as soon as possible. The patient’s health and other factors such as her lifestyle, also have a great impact on the long-term outcome of silicone breast implants.

Does silicone prosthesis cause cancer?

Breast implants in particular, and silicone body implants in general, do not have a causal relationship with breast cancer as per any scientifically credible evidential data.

Quite several other researches have shown it is impossible to attribute getting breast cancer to having silicone implants. They are effective in that they should not be disruptive to the body, although they are implants. It is advised that these implants be checked out periodically by a medical practitioner to ensure that the condition of the implants and the general health of the breast is satisfactory. Women need to pay attention to changes in their breasts and seek medical help if needed. Thus, the value for patients is that they can educate themselves on how best to protect both their health, as well as the longevity of their implants.

Can I breastfeed with silicone after breast augmentation?

Yes, women with silicone implants can breastfeed after breast augmentation most of the time.

The ability to breastfeed after the surgery depends on the position and size of the implants and the kind of incisions made. Pads put far below the chest muscle rarely affect the milk glands or ducts hence one is capable of breastfeeding. But if the incision is made around the areola, there could be a slight problem of cutting on the milk ducts and therefore slightly affect milk production. From an anatomical point of view, silicone implants do not affect the chemical makeup of breast milk or its safety. Women who intend to breastfeed should advise their surgeon on this because the surgical method used may affect it.

Is it possible to combine breast augmentation with other surgery?

Yes, it is done to combine with other surgery.

Breast lift (mastopexy) is often combined with breast enlargement to increase both the size and position of the breasts. Tummy tucks (abdominoplasty) or liposuction are the other common procedures to combine. For instance in "mommy makeovers" which is to get a woman's body back after giving birth. Every single combined procedure should be well-thought-out and it is based on the patient's health, desired outcomes, and surgical risk. Surgeons use evidence-based techniques to make sure that the procedure is safe and effective, they adjust anesthesia and recovery plans according to the specifics of combined surgeries.

Is there any loss of sensation in breasts after breast augmentation?

Yes, transient areolar numbness which is the partial loss of feeling in the areolar region can be experienced after the surgery.

This is so because the procedure may interfere with the nerves especially those in the vicinity of nipples and areola. The sensation often comes back as the nerve regenerates several weeks or even months after the surgery; however, it could be permanent. The possibility of sensation changes can therefore be pegged on aspects such as the type of surgery and respective healing pathways. Patients should make appointments with their surgeon so that they can explain this possible side effect and its ramifications to them.

Does silicone affect mammography?

Yes, silicone implants can impact mammography, but such a learning does not render mammography useless.

Silicone implants are known to over-lying some parts of the breast tissue and this makes the mammography slightly more challenging to the radiologists. To overcome this problem, specialized methods like the implant displacement views also known as the Eklund technique are employed to enhance the visibility of breast tissue on the mammogram. The radiologist should be told of the implants before the procedure so that the right methods can be used. Mammograms are still recommended annually or biennially based on the patient’s age for women with implants but other images or other imaging techniques such as ultrasound or MRI might be advised for better assessment. The correct interaction with your doctor guarantees that mammary gland cancer detection remains effective even with implants.

What are the side effects of breast augmentation?

There are several breast augmentation side effects. The only typical side of the surgery is capsular contracture, and it occurs in only 10%-15% of the patients. This is a condition whereby the breast tissue contracts around the implant and this may cause pain and make the breast stiff. Some of the other mild side effects include edema, erythema, and pain at the site of injection, which clears up after about one to two weeks. There is also a chance of implant rupture or leakage, although the rates are lower than in the previous case, and in some cases, surgery is required. Infections are reported in 1-2% of cases, and changes in nipple/ breast sensation, which may be temporary or permanent, are, while less common, deserve attention. These breast augmentation risks can be avoided if detailed talks with the surgeon are conducted, which will make the procedure to be successful.
