Breast Augmentation FAQ

The initial healing phase after breast augmentation usually lasts around 1 to 2 weeks. During this period, patients can gradually return to light daily activities while avoiding strenuous efforts. Complete recovery, which includes the reduction of swelling and the final settling of implants, may take between 3 to 6 months. Your surgeon will give you detailed aftercare guidelines to help ensure a safe and smooth healing process.

 

Yes, some scarring is expected after breast implant surgery. However, the incisions are usually made in carefully chosen locations—such as under the breast fold or around the areola—to keep scars as hidden as possible. With good postoperative care, these scars generally fade over time and become barely noticeable, ensuring a natural-looking result.

 

The results of breast augmentation are typically long-lasting—often between 10 to 15 years, or even longer in many cases. The lifespan of your implants depends on several factors, including the type of implant, your body’s response, lifestyle, and overall health.
It’s important to note that implants are not considered lifetime devices. Regular follow-up appointments with your surgeon are essential to monitor the condition of the implants and ensure everything remains healthy. If complications arise or personal aesthetic preferences change over time, a revision or replacement may be considered.

Yes, when performed by a skilled and certified plastic surgeon, breast augmentation is considered a safe and well-established cosmetic procedure. Modern breast implants undergo extensive testing for safety and durability, and advancements in surgical techniques have significantly minimized risks.
At reputable hospitals such as ours, all procedures are carried out in fully equipped medical facilities that meet international healthcare standards. From pre-operative evaluations to post-operative care, your safety and well-being are our top priorities throughout the entire treatment journey.

In the majority of cases, breastfeeding after breast augmentation is possible, particularly if the implants are placed beneath the chest muscle (submuscular placement). This technique generally avoids interference with the milk ducts and glands.
However, incisions made around the areola (periareolar) may slightly increase the risk of affecting breastfeeding function. It’s important to discuss your future breastfeeding plans with your surgeon during your consultation, so the surgical approach can be tailored to support both your aesthetic and maternal goals.

Yes, women with breast implants can undergo mammograms safely. However, it's essential to inform your radiologist or technician beforehand. Specialized imaging techniques—such as implant displacement views—may be used to get clearer results without damaging the implants.
These adjustments help ensure both thorough screening and implant safety, making regular breast health check-ups possible even after augmentation surgery.

Gaining or losing weight after breast augmentation can influence the look and feel of your breasts. While implants remain unchanged, the surrounding natural breast tissue may expand or shrink, leading to noticeable differences in size, shape, or firmness.
Significant weight fluctuations may also impact implant positioning or symmetry. If you’re planning major weight changes—or experiencing them—your surgeon can offer personalized advice to help maintain the desired aesthetic outcome.
