As your first step, we urge people not to see this type of surgery as: rather like entering a sweet shop.  Not like just picking your new boobs off the shelf.

Indeed, the size and type of implant you aspire to is not the exclusive domain of simply- what you “the patient” wants. There are many different approaches to surgery based on anatomical shape and body proportions. Too many people based their decision on some gimmicky unreal TV programme.

Some cosmetic surgeons may just go along with the patient’s wishes -but not ours.

As many of us know, not so long ago there was a lot of adverse publicity surrounding PIP implants.

Fortunately, we have been unaffected by this issue, because our surgeon-never used them.

Unlike in some other countries-(where the management decides) in the Czech Republic it is different.  Decisions as to the type and brand of implants etc. are entirely at the discretion of the surgeon. It’s his decision, and his alone.

When did we ask our surgeon why he avoided using PIP ? He explained very simply:- that when something which would normally cost £7-800 is offered at £150… then something is not quite right.

For a number of years, we were always baffled as to how the cost in London and other places throughout the world, were lower than in Prague!  We leave you to draw your own conclusions.

 As a rule breast enlargement surgery is very safe.

However, there have been worldwide reports of the occasional fatalities when undergoing this procedure so -it should not be approached in a blasé/ nonchalant manner.

Breast augmentation  is quite unique to each individual. Therefore full discussions beforehand, are a pre requisite to a successful outcome. 

Any questions appertaining to size and breast shape should be addressed by both you and the surgeon. In addition, any underlying psychological issues.

Usually, breast implants are sited above the mammary gland. However, in the case of particularly tiny breasts, the implant is placed under the muscle. Otherwise, there is a possibility the implant (ridge) might show through the skin.

Breast implant inserted via the armpit is nothing new and has been frowned upon within the profession. One of the main reasons being, the armpit is a sweat gland and is prone to infection whilst healing. It may turn out OK, but there is an increased risk.

“The surgeon could not have been more caring. Even planting a couple of “pecks on the cheek” as well as reassuring me by holding my hand.”

Breast Enlargement Surgery – Preoperative Instructions & the Operation

• One month before your surgery refrain from taking any of the following medications:  Acylpyrin, Aspirin, Alnogon, Mironal, etc. all of these contain blood thinning agents (salicylates) which can cause increased bleeding.

• At the time of surgery ensure you are free of any colds or viral infections.  Report any illnesses to your clinic we would be happy to reschedule.

• Drink as much water as you can possibly be starting 3 days prior to surgery. Of course, on the day of surgery, it’s nil by mouth.

• Whilst we appreciate it’s much easier said than done the night before to try and get a good night’s sleep.  The week before your breast implant surgery smoking and alcohol should be reduced or ideally stopped altogether.

At consultation or just prior to surgery you will be asked by the surgeon to stand up. He/she will then draw on your chest with a special pen to guide him as to the final positioning of your implants.

About Breast Enlargement Surgery

If the patients is tiny somewhat diminutive and with thin non fleshy skin, an under the muscle implant would be deemed appropriate. Using over the muscle implants could become visible. Placing the implant under the muscle take 100% longer to perform and is quite painful for a few days post op. The over muscle method is virtually painless.

Breast enlargement surgery procedure lasts on average between 1-2 hours, depending on whether or not the implants are placed over or under the muscle. Many enquirers are under the impression implants should always be placed under the muscle.

This is not the case and entirely depends on the patient’s anatomy.

If the patient is tiny and somewhat diminutive with thin non-fleshy skin, an under-the-muscle implant would be deemed appropriate.

Using over-the-muscle implants could become visible. Placing the implant under the muscle takes 100% longer to perform, and is quite painful for a few days post op.

The over-muscle method is virtually painless. Therefore, if there is no chance your implants will show through, there is absolutely no need to endure a longer anaesthetic than necessary.

Type of implants

Essentially there are two types either rounded or anatomical.

Anatomical are also know as “teardrop” shape. These two different shapes give your surgeon different options depending on the frame size/skeletal structure of the patients. In most cases the round ones are employed but much depends on the patients anatomy, shape, and thickness of skin tissue etc.

Breast Enlargement Aftercare

For this procedure as standard patients stay overnight. Just prior to discharge the support bandages are changed and any drains are removed. It is recommended rest for 3-4 days and absolutely no physical exertion. Sutures are generally removed after the 5 to 7th day. At the same time the patient will be instructed on how to apply a daily massage regime designed to prevent formation of a fibrous capsule and to promote formation of the natural shape of the breast. Normal activities may be resumed 7 to 10 days after surgery. Two months on the breast implants are considered to be stable. Periodic check-ups at a mammary clinic are recommended.
