Implant Size In Breast Augmentation Surgeries

Breast augmentation surgeries are surgical procedures in which the size of breasts can be increased and their shapes can be changed as the patient’s anatomy allows it, with the help of various implants. One of the important decision-making stages related to breast augmentation operations is the choosing of implants. The majority of the decision making on choosing implants  belongs to the patient. But of course, the surgeon who is to perform the operation also has a great contribution to this. Each patient has a different anatomy with different potentials, and this is a major factor in choosing implants for a breast augmentation surgery. In accordance with the wishes of the patient, the surgeon will evaluate the needs of the patient and inform them about their options in mutual understanding.

Each patient has a different anatomy and different tissue structure, with different potentials. The amount and distribution of the breast tissue is a factor in selecting implants for the desired outcome. It is important to know what type and size of implants will be efficient in providing the desired outcome. The shapes of the implants are also important. There can be implants that are smaller than others but have more projection and a more prominent appearance. The largest size of breast implants that a patient can get, can be estimated according to their present anatomical capacity such their present breast tissue, height, weight, chest and shoulder widths. But of course this does not mean that a patient should get the largest size that their body can handle. For beautiful and natural results, the patient’s body should be evaluated as a whole, and the appropriate size of implants should be chosen according to this.

The patient’s lifestyle can also be a factor when selecting breast implants. For example, a person with heavy physical activity in their life and/or who performs sports focused on the upper body should make their choice by taking into account whether their movements will be limited by the implants they choose.

Additionally, women who have a genetical tendency to develop stretch marks in their skin should refrain from getting breast implants that are large. Because women with this type of skin structure are not only at risk for the stretch marks that may develop, but also for the sagging and loosening of the breasts and the breast skin after a breast augmentation surgery. However, women with this type of skin structure may have breast augmentation operations without having to experience any sagging or loosening if they prefer smaller implants.
