Breast Surgery
Considerations Before Surgery
Your surgeon will discuss implant type, size, shape and placement, scars and how your body will change with age or pregnancy.
Recovery
Desk Work
Most patients return to desk work in one to two weeks.
Supportive Bras
Supportive bras are worn for several weeks.
Strenuous Activity
Strenuous activity is avoided for about six weeks.
Follow-Up
Follow-up is needed to check healing.
Choosing implants from reputable manufacturers is important, and you should receive implant details for your records.
Types of Breast Surgery
Augmentation
With implants or fat transfer.
Breast Lift (Mastopexy)
Breast Reduction
For comfort and posture.
Reconstruction
After mastectomy.
Asymmetry Correction and Revision
Correction of asymmetry or revision of earlier surgery.
Gynaecomastia Surgery

Breast Reconstruction
For women who have undergone cancer treatment, reconstruction can restore shape and confidence. It may use implants or the patient’s own tissue, and it can be done at the time of mastectomy or later. Coordination with the oncology team is essential.
Risks
Risks include infection, bleeding, changes in nipple sensation, capsular contracture and the possibility of future revision. Regular check-ups matter after implants.
