Breast Implants, Breast Reduction, Breast Lift - Candidates for Breast Enhancement

One of the staples of femininity is the figure, and one of the most important facets of the feminine figure is the breasts. While there is no single perfect size (the perfect size would be one that the woman herself is comfortable with and that matches her individual body shape), symmetry is ideal as are similarly shaped breasts. There are a number of surgical options available for women who would like to adjust the size, shape, and firmness of their breasts, and there are a number of factors that determine if a woman is an ideal candidate for these sorts of surgeries.

An ideal candidate for breast enhancement surgery is someone who has made the decision to undergo said surgery on her own. You should not be pressured into getting any type of surgery by your family or other loved ones. If you do not feel like you need to undergo surgery, do not undergo surgery. If you are unsure if surgery is right for you, consult with a skilled plastic surgeon and your physician before making a final decision.

An ideal candidate for surgery is someone who has breasts that are drooping or sagging and would like to make them firm or perky. The causes of drooping or sagging may vary. Dramatic weight loss can cause these conditions, as can pregnancy. Breast size can contribute to sagging, particularly with overlarge breasts. Genetics will also play a part in the occurrence of sagging and drooping.

Reversing drooping and sagging can be achieved through various options depending on the patient’s unique circumstances. A breast lift surgery may be performed if the breasts were once perky and now sag. If the breasts are overlarge and cause a number of health problems, a breast reduction surgery would be ideal. Drooping, sagging, and asymmetry can also be addressed through breast enhancement with breast implants, with the implants helping the breasts become fuller and perkier. (The decision to use saline breast implants or cohesive gel implants can be discussed in greater detail with your surgeon.)

Candidates for surgery should be in generally good shape and ideally non-smokers (smoking can impede healing and prolong the length of post-surgical recovery). Additional questions and concerns may be addressed to your surgeon during the consultation phase.

To learn more about breast surgery options as well as other treatments such as BOTOX® injections, face lift, cosmetic eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty), otoplasty (ear pinning), rhinoplasty (nose job surgery), liposuction, and tummy tuck (abdominoplasty), it is important to schedule an appointment at a Toronto and Mississauga, Ontario plastic surgery clinic.
