Before and after: what changes in the lives of patients who undergo breast implant surgery

There are many reasons why a woman may decide to undergo breast augmentation, and this decision often increases her confidence in her appearance and her self-esteem.

There are various causes that are related to physiological needs that directly affect physical and mental health and quality of life.

Breasts can change due to pregnancy, aging or significant weight loss, and undergoing breast surgery can improve their appearance. Sometimes, breast implants are especially indicated to correct congenital malformations, such as tuberous or tubular breasts, or pectoral anomalies, such as Poland Syndrome, in order to achieve symmetry with more aesthetic results.

However, it is important to remember that plastic surgery should not be considered a definitive solution to self-esteem problems. It is important that women who wish to undergo breast implant surgery have realistic expectations and are aware of the risks and benefits involved.

These are some of the results that patients usually see before and after breast implant surgery:

 

Before surgery

  • Dissatisfaction with physical appearance: Many patients who opt for a breast prosthesis may feel dissatisfied with the appearance of their body parts and may have experienced low self-esteem as a result.
  • Physical discomfort or pain: In some cases, the size or shape of the breasts can cause physical discomfort or pain, including back, neck or shoulder pain, or postural problems.

 

After surgery

  • Improvement in physical appearance: patients usually notice a significant improvement in their physical appearance after undergoing breast implants. This can lead to increased self-esteem and self-confidence.
  • Reduction in physical discomfort or pain: For patients who were experiencing discomfort or pain before surgery, breast prostheses can help relieve these symptoms, improve posture and weight distribution.
  • Increased confidence: Improving physical appearance can lead to an increase in the patient’s self-confidence and self-esteem. They may feel more comfortable in their skin and with their body.
  • Improved sexual life: some patients report an improvement in their sexual life after breast implant surgery. This may be due to increased self-esteem and confidence, as well as greater satisfaction with your physical appearance.

 

Using breast implants can have a significant impact on a person’s body and self-esteem, but results can vary from person to person. It is important to discuss with your plastic surgeon what size and shape is ideal for you and what results you expect. In addition, it is essential to correctly follow postoperative instructions, which are key to a good recovery.
