Breast augmentation is a cosmetic surgical procedure designed to enhance the size, shape, and overall appearance of the breasts. It is commonly chosen by individuals who desire fuller breasts, wish to restore volume lost after pregnancy or weight loss, or want to achieve better symmetry. The procedure involves placing breast implants—either saline or silicone—under the breast tissue or chest muscles. The choice of implant type, size, and placement is personalized to match the patient’s goals and body proportions.

Breast augmentation is typically performed under general anesthesia and takes about 1–2 hours. Most patients return to normal daily activities within a week, with full recovery in a few weeks. This procedure can boost self-confidence and body image, offering long-lasting results when performed by a qualified plastic surgeon. Modern techniques ensure natural-looking outcomes with minimal scarring and downtime.
