Breast Procedures - Breast Enlargement, Breast Reduction & Breast Lifts
Popular cosmetic Breast Surgery operations include Breast Augmentation or Breast Enlargement, Breast Reduction and Breast Enhancement. Of these the most commonly performed procedure is the Breast Enlargement which involves increasing the size of the Breast via the introduction of implants.
Popular Breast Implants
The two most popular types of implants used in Breast Augmentation or Breast Enlargement contain saline or silicone gel. Silicone gel Breast Implants have been used in Breast Augmentation surgery since the 1960’s and are the world’s most popular Breast Implant. These implants are favoured by plastic surgeons because they allow for free movement and have a texture which gives them the feel of a natural Breast.
Saline Breast Implants contain saline which is a natural product found within the human body. For Breast Augmentation the Saline Breast Implant can come in the form of variable volume whereby the Breast Implant’s size can be increased in future. Additionally the incision needed during surgery and therefore the scar is smaller because the Breast Implant is filled with Saline once the implant has been placed in the Breast. Silicon Gel Implants are prefilled and therefore a larger incision is required.
Further information on Breast Implants and advice on the Breast Enlargement procedure will be provided by a cosmetic surgeon as part of the Breast surgery consultation process pre surgery.
Paying for Breast Augmentation
Whilst price is an important factor when choosing to have Breast Augmentation surgery there are many other things to consider such as the cosmetic surgeon and the clinic and its location. Most plastic surgery clinics will provide payment options for Breast Enlargements and other plastic surgery procedures. These allow you to spread the cost of the Breast Enlargement surgery usually over a 12 to 48 month period and some offer 0% finance.
