Breast Procedure Planning
Breast surgery may involve augmentation, lifting, reduction, fat transfer, or a combination. The correct option depends on breast shape, skin, volume, asymmetry, chest width, health, and personal goals.
What the Consultation Covers
The assessment includes measurements, implant or fat-transfer options when appropriate, scar placement, expected shape, recovery, future pregnancy considerations, and breast-screening history.
Recovery and Follow-up
Activity limits, support garments, wound care, and follow-up depend on the operation. Swelling and settling take time, and scars continue to mature for months.
Risks and Limitations
Possible concerns include bleeding, infection, scarring, asymmetry, sensation changes, implant-related complications, and possible revision surgery.
