A Guide To Getting Breast Augmentation Surgery

Cosmetic surgeons can work wonders for you if you'd like your breasts enhanced. Breast surgeries can improve the volume, size, and overall appearance of your breasts. Keep reading to learn more about breast augmentation plastic surgery and how to get the results you want. 

Consider Your Frame and the Results You Want

Think about your body type when you are looking to enhance your breasts. This will come down to an exact cup size, so take time to carefully consider the changes you'll be making. You can use the rice test to figure out what bra cup size you'd like and can ask your doctor for a bra filled with saline bags to wear for a week or two. Do a walkthrough of your wardrobe and consider the outfits that you would like to wear. Assess how your new breasts will affect the presentation of your outfits. Choose the best size for your peace of mind, self-image, and overall happiness. 

Consult with a Qualified Physician

Meet with a cosmetic surgeon to compare notes once you know the approximate size you'd like. Block out enough time to meet with the surgeon so that you're relaxed and have ample time to ask all your questions. They can clear up details on the size and volume of your new breasts, a walkthrough of the surgery, options for the implant materials and procedures, what to expect from the healing process, and so forth. 

Your doctor will likely give you some saline implant samples to take with you so that you can feel and wear them as you weigh your decision. Breast enhancements cost about $4,516, on average. Check with your insurance provider and about any financing options so that you don't have an issue paying for your procedure. 

Prepare for Your Surgery and Post-Surgery Healing

Your physician will give you a list of things you should know about the recovery process. Stock your refrigerator and cupboards and take some time off from work so that you can properly heal up and rest. Clean your home prior to the surgery so that you have a pleasant place to relax and de-stress. 

Stock up on a few recovery bras that will give your breasts needed support and help you manage any pain and swelling while you heal up. You will need to avoid any strenuous activity or exercise for the next several weeks as you recover.
