Breast augmentation surgery in India is an increasingly popular choice due to its affordability and high-quality care. Here’s a quick overview of key points to help you understand the procedure:

Cost

• Average Cost in India: USD $2,500 (varies by surgeon, city, and type of implants).

Benefits

• Enhances breast size and shape, restoring volume lost due to aging, weight loss, or breastfeeding.
• Boosts self-esteem by improving symmetry and overall appearance.

Types of Breast Augmentation Procedures

1. Fat Transfer: Uses fat from areas like the belly or thighs, but not suitable for those with insufficient body fat. Results may be temporary.
2. Breast Implants: Silicone or saline implants available in various sizes and textures. Silicone offers a natural feel, while saline is filled with sterile saltwater.

Types of Breast Implants

• Silicone Implants: Natural feel, FDA-approved.
• Saline Implants: Filled with sterile saltwater.
• Cohesive Silicone (“Gummy Bear”) Implants: Firmer, hold shape better.
• Round Implants: Enhance overall breast volume.
• Smooth/ Textured Implants: Textured implants stay in place better, smooth implants have a lower rupture rate.

Incision Options

• Inframammary: Under the breast fold.
• Periareolar: Around the nipple.
• Trans-axillary: Through the armpit.
• Transumbilical: Through the belly button.

Implant Placement

• Sub-glandular: Above the chest muscle.
• Sub-muscle: Beneath the chest muscle.
• Subpectoral: Combines both placements for a more natural look.

Post-Surgery Expectations

• Swelling, discomfort, and tenderness are normal and may last several weeks. Scars fade over time. Recovery time varies, but most return to work within weeks.

Who is a Good Candidate?

• Women who’ve lost breast volume after pregnancy or weight loss.
• Those seeking to improve breast symmetry or restore a youthful appearance.
• Must be in good mental and physical health.

Breast augmentation surgery carries risks such as pain, scarring, infection, and in rare cases, implant rupture. Always consult with a qualified surgeon to discuss options and risks based on your individual health and needs.
