The operation is performed under general anesthesia or local anesthesia in all its types and takes approximately 2-4 hours depending on each case. In cases of general anesthesia, unlike local anesthesia cases, which do not require these considerations, the patient should stay in the hospital for a day after the procedure and stop eating approximately 6 hours before the procedure. We will talk about breast augmentation in Turkey in detail due to the increasing demand for such procedures in the last 10 years.
Types of Breast Aesthetics in Turkey
As we mentioned, there are many breast aesthetic surgeries in Turkey, depending on the purpose of the procedure. Many women complain that their breasts sag significantly due to their large size, while some women complain that their breasts are small due to genetic factors, which embarrasses the woman. In cases of mastectomy resulting from a cancerous tumor requiring excision, there is a type of surgery based on breast reconstruction in women. In addition to these cases, male gynecomastia removal, a common procedure that occurs in men due to a defect in estrogen secretion that causes breast breasts to appear and sag, is particularly beneficial in overweight cases.
We will present these cases in detail.
It is an aesthetic surgery based on adding silicone gel or fat injection to the chest area in order to give an attractive and feminine appearance by enlarging the breasts or weakening the breasts in women or restoring the lost breast after pregnancy. It is recommended to consider the following points before breast augmentation:
- People who have completed breast development over the age of 20.
- Those who are uncomfortable with small breast size.
- Dissatisfaction with the upper part of the breast due to its empty shape.
- Breasts are asymmetrical or there is regression in normal growth.
The procedure is usually done under general anesthesia and the surgery takes about 3-4 hours. First, an incision is made in the hidden part under the breasts, then a silicone filler is placed between the breast tissue and the chest muscles or behind the chest muscles, and finally the skin is sutured. It is covered with a special bandage, which is most common in breast augmentation cases compared to the fat injection option.
The time required for recovery after surgery varies from patient to patient, but generally varies between 7-10 days. After that, you can return to daily activities, including light exercises. This detail should be carefully checked and discussed with your plastic surgeon.
Women may be concerned about the appearance of their new breasts after the procedure in the first stage of recovery, but this is normal and temporary. You will gradually begin to look and feel normal within a few weeks after surgery.
All women with sagging, breast enlargement apply to this option. The surgeon removes the breast tissue, adipose tissue and sagging skin from the breast, so that the woman gets a tighter and more beautiful breast shape in proportion to her body. In addition, with breast reduction surgery, you can reduce the size of the areola surrounding the nipple so that the woman has a more beautiful and sexy breast. Breast sagging causes pain due to the increase in the weight of the chest mass, especially while walking. In addition to coordination disorder and difficulty in movement, it also causes some irritations under the chest due to sweating.
In the procedure, first of all, the technique to be used in the surgery is determined and the shape preferred by the patient is determined according to the breast shape needed after the surgery. The most commonly used technique is to make three incisions, one of which is the nipple and the surrounding brown area. The second incision is vertical from the brown areola to the drooping area of the breast, and the third incision is in the wrinkles.
The doctor removes the excess fat, tissue and skin of the breast through incisions, then raises the nipple and the areola surrounding it to a height, and the areola surrounding the nipple also shrinks, which usually increases in size with pregnancy, postpartum and breastfeeding. Finally, before the incisions are made, the skin is returned to its original state, and then plastic surgery is sutured to allow the breast to take its new shape. At the end of the fourth week after the operation, the patient feels comfortable as he will return to his normal life.
Since the reasons for the breast lift operation intersect with the breast reduction operation, women resort to lifting the breast after weight gain or sagging caused by pregnancy and breastfeeding. The surgery is performed under general anesthesia and takes about 3 hours.
There are many causes of gynecomastia in men, it may result from heredity, weight gain can help gynecomastia, especially during puberty and growth, the imbalance between the secretion of male and female hormones may occur as a result of insufficiency, or as a result of hyperactivity of the thyroid and pituitary glands, enlargement of the male breast is observed. The surgery is performed on the condition that the man is in good health and goes through several stages, starting with a surgical incision in the nipple area and total excision of the glandular tissue in the breast, or more precisely, the removal of the breast tissue. breast. In cases of excess weight and fat accumulation in the chest, liposuction is performed and finally the wound is sutured aesthetically. Doctors recommend some instructions that should be followed and not followed, such as wearing a medical corset around the chest, in order to get the desired shape after the gynecomastia removal procedure for men. The procedure can be completed under general or local anesthesia and usually takes about 2 hours.
