Indications for
Breast Augmentation
Considerations for breast augmentation may include the following circumstances:
• Naturally small breasts: When the natural breast size leaves a patient feeling unsatisfied with their appearance.
• Post-childbirth and breastfeeding: Pregnancy often causes breasts to enlarge, but once breastfeeding concludes, the breasts may deflate, resulting in a loss of elasticity and shape. In such instances, breast augmentation, possibly coupled with a breast lift, can restore the previous look.
• Following significant weight loss: Rapid weight loss can lead to breasts losing their previous fullness.
• Asymmetry: This could be due to injury, hormonal imbalances, or genetic factors.
• Aging: As women age, their bodies produce less collagen and elastin – essential proteins for skin elasticity.
Consequently, breasts can sag, and stretch marks may develop on the surface.
Even women with larger busts may consider this procedure. Over time, the weight of larger breasts can cause them to droop and sag. Through breast augmentation, the shape can be adjusted to appear more lifted and youthful.
As always, any decisions related to surgical interventions should be made in consultation with a healthcare professional who can adequately assess your specific needs and risks.
