What should we expect?
The procedure can be done at a hospital outpatient or in a surgical facility. Most likely, you'll be in a position to return home that next day. The procedure is not usually requiring a hospital stay.

Sometimes, breast augmentation is performed under local anesthesiawhen you're awake and your breast area is numbed. The procedure can be performed with general anesthesia. This means that you're asleep during the procedure. Your plastic surgeon will discuss various options for anesthesia together with you.

During the procedure
To insert the breast implant, your plastic surgeon will make a single cut (incision) in one of three places:

The crease below your breasts (inframammary).
Under your arm (axillary)
Your nipple (periareolar).
After making an incision, your surgeon will seperate the breast tissue from the connective tissue. This will create a pocket behind or in front of the muscle with the largest outer part on the chest wall (pectoral muscles). The surgeon will then insert the implant into the pocket and place it on top of the nose.

Saline implants are inserted empty and then filled with sterile saltwater once they're placed. Silicone implants are pre-filled silicone gel.

Once the implant is in position when the implant is in place, the surgeon will close the incision with stitches (sutures) -and bandage it using skin adhesive as well as surgical tape.

Following the procedure
After surgery, soreness and swelling can be common. It is also possible to get bruises. Expect the scars to fade with time , but they will not completely disappear.

When you're recovering it could be helpful to wear a compression bandage , or sports bra for extra support and better positioning of the breast implants. It is also possible to be prescribed pain medication by your surgeon.

Follow the directions from your doctor for returning to normal activities. You might be able return to work in a few weeks if you don't work in a physically demanding position. Avoid any strenuous exercise or anything that can raise your pulse or blood pressure for at minimum two weeks. While you're healing, remember that your breasts will be vulnerable to physical contact, or jarring movements.

If the surgeon made sutures that do not absorb on their own or placed drainage tubes on your breasts, then you'll need a follow-up appointment for removal.

An infection may be a sign of serious problem. Make contact with your surgeon immediately. Contact your surgeon for shortness of breath or chest discomfort.
