One reason you may want to have breast implants is because you are a woman who has devoted your life and time to your children, and now it is time for you.

Having your children probably has taken a toll on your breasts.

If you breast fed your children, your breasts may be trying to sag. You have taken a good hard look at your breasts in the mirror, and do not like what you see. Your breasts are not as perky as before you had your children.

Reason number two could be that you are not happy about your breasts because they are too small. Many women prefer large breasts.breast implants1

The third reason is probably age. When your body ages your breasts will naturally lose some of their shape, and start to fall. No matter what the reason you want implants, there is help for you.

Two Types of Implants

Two types of breast implants, that the Food and Drug Administration have approved, are saline and silicone filled. You can choose from all different sizes and shapes. The shells that contain the saline and silicone come in textured and smooth.

Breast implants will not usually last over fifteen years. If you are considering getting breast implants, you will need to keep this in mind. These breast implants both have a silicone elastomer.

This elastomer increases the implant by using two outer shells, one inside the other. Using two shells together will make your breast implants a lot stronger. Two shells will be harder to rupture.

Surgery

Your breast implant surgery will only take a few hours to perform, if you have no complications. The surgery will take place in a surgeon’s office, a clinic, or in a hospital. There are several choices for implant placement.

Your physician may put your implants under your natural breast, or he can also implant them under your chests’ muscles. Talk to your physician about all of your options on this. You can usually have this type of surgery as an outpatient.

The anesthesia that you will be under will make you very sleepy, and you will not be able to drive, so you will need to have your family or friends to drive you home.

The Right Physician

When choosing a physician to do your implant surgery, you will want to choose one that has a lot of training in this area. You will want a surgeon who has already performed breast implant surgery on a large number of patients.

Make sure you check his credentials, and if possible, it would be a good idea for you to talk to someone who has gotten breast implants surgery from them.

You will need to discuss everything with your physician about breast implants before you decide. This is a big decision for you to make, and you will need to make sure that you are getting your breast implants for the right reasons.

There are no guarantees that your life will be a lot better for you, just because you had breast implants. You will want to be realistic in your expectations.
