Increase breast with additive mastoplasty
The answer to the question “How to increase the breasts?” is breast augmentation surgery, which allows you to increase the size and volume of the breasts, obtaining a result that is not only natural both to the visit and to the touch, but also harmonious and proportionate.
Additive mastoplasty: whatitisand how to do it
Breast augmentation is a plastic surgery operation during which breast implants are placed under the mammary gland or the pectoral muscles after the plastic surgeon has made an incision around the areola and created a pocket. It is one of the most requested surgeries by women.
It is possible to proceed with breast augmentation in case of:
Small breasts
Decreased tone or volume following weight loss
Decreased toneor volume following pregnancy or breastfeeding
Asymmetrical breasts
in terms of volume
The profile of the body can alter due to various factors, including ageing, continuous fluctuations in weight or drastic and excessive weight loss, stress and continuous exposure to solar or artificial UV radiation.
Post-operative course: what not to do after additive mastoplasty
Breast augmentation surgery lasts between one and two hours, at the end of which the breasts may appear in a higher position than the more natural one that will be reached in the following month.
It is important to wear a specific post breast augmentation bra: it must be elastic and must be removed by the surgeon. As for the resumption of daily activities by the patient, the routine ones can be restarted once a week (of complete rest) has elapsed from the surgery, to allow time for symptoms such as bruising and soreness of the breasts to relieve Furthermore, while for light sports it is necessary to wait at least three weeks, and the times are doubled for heavier activities, such as swimming.
It is always important to check the state and condition of breast implants annually.
Reduce breast with reducing mastoplasty
The size of the breasts depends on several factors: the number of sex hormonescirculating in the body, the size, body weight andgenetics. Very large breasts can adversely affect a person’s life, causing:
Pain in the back, neck and shoulders
Skin irritation in the lower breast area
Grooves on the shoulders left by the straps of the bra that bears the strong pressure of the weight of the breasts
Difficulty in carrying out physical activity and even sleeping, due to clutter
There may also be repercussions of a psychological nature, due not only to the lack of esteem but also to the problems in finding clothes that fit well, adapting to the shape of the body.

Reducing mastoplasty: intervention techniques
The breast reduction operation is performed under general anaesthesia: as soon as it takes effect, the cosmetic surgeon proceeds with the elimination of excess adipose, skin and glandular tissue.
The methods of intervention and incision depend on the characteristics and size of the breasts, but in general, breast reduction begins with the displacement or temporary removal of the areola. The incision can only be per areolar, or it can be per areolar and vertical, per areolar, vertical and horizontal or, as anticipated, with the temporary removal of the areola and nipple
Reducing mastoplasty: post-operative course
At the end of the surgery, the cosmetic surgeon wraps the breasts and inserts a tube to help drain the blood that could accumulate. Upon awakening after anaesthesia, it is normal to feel pain in the breasts, whichwill be followed by swelling and bruising. The breast area will be particularly sensitive, but the situation normalizes in a period ranging from 2 to 4 weeks -and at this point, the patient can return to work.
It is advisable not to use a normal bra after breast reduction: for at least the first month,it is preferable to wear a sports bra. The times, on the other hand, are longer to resume sports activity and for the scars to lose their intense red colour: you have to wait 6 weeks for physical activity and 3 months for discolouration.
