BREAST AUGMENTATION
Large and firm breasts increase women's self-confidence. Also It creates freedom and confidence in choosing clothes. However, most women think that they do not have breasts of ideal size. Especially women with small breasts or no breasts feel inadequate and unhappy.
The most commonly used method for breast enlargement today is breast enlargement surgery with silicone prosthesis. The prostheses used are approved by the American Ministry of Health, guaranteed and do not require replacement. Silicone prostheses contain a memory gel, which we call smart gel. Even if the silicone very rarely bursts, is cut or punctured, its contents do not leak out.
People who have had a breast prosthesis implanted can become pregnant and breastfeed. The biggest advantage is that breasts can be enlarged to the desired size and form, and the result is permanent for many years. It would not be right to say that this or that size is ideal for a beautiful breast. Ideal breast size is a personal concept, it is a measurement related to a person's weight, height, shoulder and hip width. In addition, one's own opinions are also important in deciding on the ideal breast size. The best results are achieved with personalized planning. Listening to and understanding the person who will undergo breast augmentation surgery and deciding together with the person is the absolute way to get the best result.
Padded bras used to make breasts look larger do not look natural and can damage the existing breast structure. Instead of using these, it is necessary to turn to permanent solutions. For this reason, instead of making unhealthy choices, you can achieve the desired breast size with breast enlargement surgery.
