Mammoplasty is considered to be one of the most popular plastic surgeries in the world. Why do Women Do It? It is difficult to answer this question clearly. Some believe that nature does not reward them with fertile enough breasts, others want to quickly restore their previous shape after childbirth and breastfeeding.
German scientists recently conducted a survey among patients of aesthetic surgery clinics and found the main reasons that force women to fearlessly undergo surgery.
- "I am a mother of three children, and I give them all breast milk. As a result, my breasts are very saggy, and the skin on them is stretched. "
- "Since I was little I was very fat, and now I've lost weight. I've been on a diet for a long time, but I don't have time for sports. So breasts are as ugly as they are. "
- "A few years ago I was diagnosed with breast cancer. The right breast was taken. I don't like inlay prostheses. I want to be a real woman. "
- "My breasts are too small, and I'm always teased at school because of this. I still feel insecure as a little girl, and because of this, I have big problems with my personal life. I know when I enlarge my breasts, everything will change. "
- "This is my last hope of having beautiful and dense breasts. I tortured myself for a long time, did special exercises and even took pills, but it was all useless. The operation was better. "
- "Men love big breasts. After surgery, my chances of success in marriage are higher. I'm sure I'll get a better job than I do now. "
- "By nature, the left breast is bigger than the right breast. This is very ugly. It's hard for me to choose underwear, and I'm embarrassed to undress in front of loved ones. "
This is simply the most popular answer. According to studies, the average age of women who see a plastic surgeon is constantly declining. Nearly half of the patients were young women under the age of 25 years. Interestingly, about 3% of the respondents were girls under the age of 20. Why mammoplasty is needed at a young age is a mystery. After all, breasts are currently still developing and may acquire the desired volume and shape.
Medical causes of breast enlargement
- Improves the shape of the mammary glands after losing weight too fast. Chest sags, volume decreases, ugly stretch marks appear on the skin. Silicone implants give the breast a beautiful shape, making it firm and plump.
- During pregnancy, due to hormonal changes in the body, the breast increases significantly, and after breastfeeding, on the contrary, it sharply "deflates". Mammoplasty performed 1 to 1. 5 years after delivery helps restore the breast to its previous shape.
- As a result of hormonal system disorders, the breasts may not grow at all or may not form properly. In this case, mammoplasty is recommended.
- The absence of one or both breasts may be due to mastectomy (complete removal of the breast). Angelina Jolie, who decided to have a mastectomy because of her high risk of getting cancer, can be cited as an interesting example. All breast tissue is removed to the cast and implants are fitted. The only thing reminiscent of this is the small scars under the breasts. Needless to say, the two operations did not negatively impact his appearance and career.
When is mammoplasty strictly contraindicated?
- The breasts are still not fully formed. The optimum age for surgery is from 18 to 50 years.
- You suffer from breast disease. Surgery can cause serious complications.
- You have too little subcutaneous fat.
- The rib cage is very deformed and has scars.
- Mammologists and surgeons give negative conclusions about the results of your examination. If an expert rejects you, then there is a serious reason for that. No need to look for another plastic surgeon by any means.
