Breast augmentation in women is the most performed cosmetic surgery in the world. More than 1.5 million women have breast augmentation every year. The role that breasts play in the femininity of women and in the security of their self-esteem due to their good body image, associated with the fact that women today play a very important role in the world of work, business and in all aspects of the social and economic development of a country, could be considered the causes that breast enhancement surgery is one of the most requested today.
Before performing this procedure, the patient must be evaluated very carefully, in order to be able to notice aspects such as quality and texture of the skin, position of the areola and nipple, the adequate development of the breast tissue, the patient's body measurements, her height and texture and finally what is the desire in terms of size that is in the expectations of the patient. All these factors together lead us to establish the operative plan that would be the one indicated in the patient. We cannot frame all patients with the same procedure since the individual variables of each patient play a very important role in the final favorable aesthetic result.
Breast augmentation today is done with breast implants. There are round, anatomical, smooth, textured, micro-textured, saline solution, highly cohesive silicone, in short, all these aspects must be evaluated and discussed with the patient so that a final choice of the implant to be used can be made.
