Breast Augmentation

Are you satisfied with your overall body shape but wish your breasts better complemented your figure? Whether due to recent weight loss, aging, or genetics, many women find that their breasts do not align with their aesthetic goals. Breast augmentation offers a way to enhance your breast size, shape, and symmetry, helping you achieve the look you desire while boosting self-confidence.

What is Breast Augmentation?

Breast augmentation is a cosmetic procedure designed to increase the size and improve the shape of the breasts through the use of implants or fat transfer. This procedure can be tailored to meet your unique goals, whether you are looking to restore volume lost after pregnancy, balance asymmetrical breasts, or simply enhance your natural curves.

Can Breast Augmentation Be Done Under Local Anesthetic?

Yes, it is possible to have breast augmentation under local anesthesia, particularly when implants are placed above the muscle. This approach is becoming increasingly popular among patients who prefer to avoid the risks and recovery time associated with general anesthesia. Local anesthesia with sedation allows you to remain awake yet comfortable throughout the procedure, significantly reducing the side effects such as disorientation and nausea that are often associated with general anesthesia.

Benefits of Breast Augmentation

  • Enhanced Appearance: Achieve fuller, more symmetrical breasts that better complement your body shape.
  • Boosted Confidence: Many women report increased self-esteem and satisfaction with their bodies following breast augmentation.
  • Customizable Options: Choose from a variety of implant types, shapes, and sizes to match your aesthetic goals.
  • Quick Recovery: Procedures under local anesthesia typically involve a shorter recovery time, allowing you to return to daily activities sooner.

What to Expect During the Procedure

During your consultation, your surgeon will discuss your desired outcomes and help you choose the appropriate type of implant or fat transfer method. On the day of the procedure, local anesthesia is administered to the treatment area, ensuring you remain comfortable and pain-free. The surgeon then makes a small incision, places the implants or performs the fat transfer, and closes the incision with sutures. The entire process is typically completed within a few hours, and you can often return home the same day.

Risks and Considerations

While breast augmentation is generally safe, as with any surgery, there are risks involved. These may include infection, changes in nipple or breast sensation, implant leakage or rupture, and capsular contracture. However, by choosing a highly qualified and experienced surgeon, you can minimise these risks and achieve the best possible outcome.
