Breastaugmentation

At Scanhealths ward for plastic surgery we perform safe surgery to increase the size and improve the appearance of the breasts. A breast implant is placed under or over the pectoral muscle for a nice aesthetic result.

The operation takes approximately 1 hour and we use the most common type of general anesthesia. The patient may return home on the same day as the surgery is performed and go back to work within 7 – 10 days. One must avoid touching the breast for 3 to 4 weeks. The scars will normally fade and vanish within 3 months to 2 years after the operation. Recovery time varies from patient to patient.

Side effects to breastaugmentation
After surgery one can experience slight discomfort, minor swelling, reduced or no sensation of the nipples and also bruising in the incised area. In rare cases it will be necessary to remove or relocate the implants if they for example deflate or rupture, or there is capsular contracture. This will make the breast feel hard and tight and there can be hemorrhages or infections. Other risks are increased or reduced sensation of the nipples or the skin, which in some cases can be permanent.
The final result will always vary somewhat from patient to patient, but here at Scanhealth your surgery will be performed by experienced surgeons who specialize in aesthetic plastic surgery. This guarantees that we give you the best conditions for a successful breastaugmentation.
