description | Breast augmentation is one of the most commonly performed procedures worldwide among aesthetic reconstructive
surgeries. Among the indications for performing the procedure are primary and secondary alterations related to breasts
shape and volume. During the initial assessment, emphasis should be placed in the anamnesis and physical examination,
allowing to define target sizing and realistic expectations to prospectively determine the possible postoperative
satisfaction rates. There are several methods used to select the appropriate implants that have become more accurate
with time and with the use of technology. Although there are multiple materials developed, to this moment silicone
implants continue to be the ones most used worldwide with low complication rates depending on each patient and on the
technique used. It is considered as one of the aesthetic reconstructive surgeries with the highest degree of acceptance
among the general population who undergo this type of procedures. |
