Implications of Breast Augmentation

There are many complications that may arise from breast implant surgery. Today we will touch on some of the primary complications that may arise as a result of such surgery. For those looking to have a baby during or after the surgery, breast feeding may be impaired as the implant may be

There is a risk that breast implants may impede breast cancer detection. During mammography, X-ray, or ultrasound the implants could hide suspicious tumors or lesions. Treatment providers must take special care of breast-implant patients during breast exams.

Another issue that may arise after implants come from the loss of sensation that may arise in the breast. After breast augmentation, some implant patients experience loss of sensation in the nipple and breast area. Loss of sensation results from damage to nerve endings in the breast and nipple. The loss of sensation is often temporary, but it can be permanent.

Texas Woman Claims Breast Cancer to Pay For Breast Implants

Here's an interesting story for those keeping up with breast augmentation news around the country. Waco Texas has seen a bit of fraud lately in relation to breast augmentation, as a woman recently falsified her need for breast implants in order to raise money. The unbelievable story is stranger than fiction.

Recently a woman has been charged with stealing money that was originally supposed to go to her breast cancer fund. Trista Joy Lathern, 24, took thousands of dollars from individuals who thought they were giving to a charitable fund.
But wait, there's more. Lathern never had breast cancer in the first place. Still, she allegedly played the hoax to the max. The McLennan County Sheriff's Office says Lathern even shaved her head, and then held a fundraiser for herself that was attended by dozens of friends and neighbors, and raised over $10,000 for the treatment. Arrested on Wednesday, Lathern was charged with "theft by deception over $1,500, but under $20,000."

Self-confidence, Self-esteem is Boosted By Breast Augmentation Surgery

It used to be that any celebrity who got a breast augmentation or any other plastic surgery work done was scrutinized for their decision.

Now a days, it's almost a 'given'.

With all the beauty makeover reality shows and the compelling stories they tell of how plastic surgery can transform not only people's physical appearance, but their self-confidence and self-image as well, it's no wonder people are more open to the idea of plastic surgery. It's amazing to see the kind of impact a change on the outside of a person can have to their inside; their confidence and overall psychological well being - or simply, just being a happier person.

Kelly Rowland, a recent breast implants patient, didn't get a breast augmentation that was overboard or obvious, she just wanted something to balance out her physique - and not some expectation of what the public deems as a staple beauty. She did it for herself.

What do you think? Post your thoughts in the forums or if you're looking to pique your curiosity, visit Breast Implants USA today and you just might find the perfect doctor to provide that little enhancement you've been looking for.

New Treatment for Early-Stage Breast Cancer Patients with Breast Implants

There is great news today from the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) regarding a breakthrough in partial breast radiation treatment for those women who've undergone breast augmentation surgery. The study has found that women who've undergone breast implants surgery and have early-stage breast cancer have a new, less invasive treatment option called brachytherapy which results in less cosmetic and structural damage to the breast. In addition, the results find that with brachytherapy, there is less capsular contracture, which is the hardening of scar tissue surrounding the implant, which effects breast shape and is oftentimes very painful.

In the procedure, radiation 'seeds' are planted directly into the affected breast tissue just after a lumpectomy. This localized and specific treatment is showing better results than conventional radiation therapies which target the entire breast tissues, and cause hardening of the implants, requiring breast implant replacement.

This new breast cancer treatment is great news for those who have undergone or plan to undergo breast implants surgery because it opens up the treatment options for those who develop breast cancer after their implants surgery.

For more information on brachytherapy, please visit the Radiological Society of North America's website.

Thanks for visiting Breast Implants USA!

What Are My Choices For Breast Implants?

There are many choices to be made when it comes to Breast Implants Surgery. Gathering as much quality information as possible is paramount for making informed decisions that will impact your experience and the results you and your doctor achieve together. Besides the choice of surgeon, which is perhaps the most important choice you can make when considering breast augmentation surgery, is the type of implant prosthesis used in the procedure.

Every body is different, so there's no 'one size fits all'. Depending on your body type and your anatomical proportions, the shape, size and texture of breast implants used will create beautiful, natural looking breasts. These are important tools your doctor will employ in order to create the most natural looking breasts possible.



Smooth vs. Textured Breast Implants

There are advantages to both smooth and textured implants and the use of one over another will be determined by your doctor in your pre-op consultation. Because of the smooth surface of the prosthesis, smooth breast implants have the ability to move within the 'breast pocket', which gives the breast a more natural look and feel. However, the smooth surface can also create capsular contracture.

Textured implants, on the other hand, have a thicker shell and a more firm feeling to them. The textured surface keep the implants from moving around the 'breast pocket' which causes less friction between the implant and the surrounding body tissues, lowering the risk of caspsular contracture.


Round vs. Anatomical Breast Implants

Round breast implants are the most popular choices in implants shape and can often provide a more round, fuller look to your breasts. A good surgeon can shape the round implants to look and feel natural within the 'breast pocket', depending on their use of smooth or textured implants.

Anatomical implants were originally designed for breast reconstruction surgery, but have become more popular recently in the realm of general breast augmentation surgery. The anatomical shape is like that of a tear drop, wider at the bottom and tapering at the top. The shape was designed to look more natural and anatomical implants tend to last longer than round implants.

Ultimately, your experienced surgeon will know which options are best for you, based on your body type and your desires - their objective is to meet your vision with skill and realistic expectations.

Breast Implants - Breast Augmentation

Breast Augmentation (Augmentation Mammoplasty) is an elective surgical procedure used to increase the size of a woman's breast. Breast Implants are prostheses made of either saline or silicone which are inserted just under the breast for cosmetic or reconstructive purposes. The procedure usually lasts 1-2 hours and recovery time is usually weeks rather than months, allowing the patient to return to work as few as 3 days after surgery.

Important Note: Every single patient is different, and has a different scenario. Because of that, it is very important that prior to making a decision, you contact a board certified plastic surgeon, and consult with them about your goals, desires and to see if you are a good candidate for this plastic surgery procedure.

Breast Feeding With Breast Implants

Can I breast feed after Breast Augmentation?

Yes and no. If your incision is made under the fold of the breast or through the armpit you shouldn't have any problems, however, if it's done around the areola, problems may arise. If the nerves around the areola weren't damaged, you may be able to nurse fully or partially.

Breast Implants With Silicone Gel or Saline

Many patients report a shorter operative, as well as recuperative time, and physicians generally observe less stress and trauma to the body as a result of this procedure. Over 2 million women have chosen to have breast implants and have been very happy with the results.

How long do implants last?

It is not known how long implants will last. In the body, the wall of the implant may weaken and become disrupted. This is more likely when there is an impact injury, such as from the steering wheel of a car or fall. The implant may or may not last a lifetime and depends upon the manufacturing process and other, as yet, unknown factors.

Making an Informed Decision About Breast Implants

Despite more than a decade of controversy over their safety, breast implants are more popular than ever among women who want to build upon what nature gave them or who want to restore what disease has taken away.

Whatever the reason, opting for breast implants is a personal decision that should be made only after a woman fully understands and accepts the potential risks of the devices and the importance of follow-up evaluations with her physician.

Options for Implant Size

The ultimate size of the breast is mainly a personal decision by the patient. Cup size is an inexact estimate of the final size since cup sizes vary with the bra manufacturer and how tight or loose the patient wears her bra as well as how much breast tissue is already present. Describing the preferred cup size does aid the surgeon, but it also helps to look at pictures or photos to show the physician the desired final look.
