Breast is a true symbol of femininity; a beautiful breast underlines the harmony of the body, confers self- confidence and provides a feeling of wellbeing and sensuality. Nevertheless, being too much large, too small, hanging or asymmetric it becomes source of discomfort to which plastic surgery can respond.

 PRINCIPLE
They are recommended for women wishing to increase the volume or shape of their breasts.
Before the surgery a physical check up is performed :
 Thorough breast examination and x-ray are compulsory
Volume and desired shape
Biology: customary pre surgical exams
Surgery lasts about an hour under general anaesthesia. The incision is usually located by the areola.
The prosthesis, after decision of your medical specialist on volume and shape, will be inserted between the gland and the large pectoral, in some cases (very thin skin and absence of gland) preference will be to slide it under the large pectoral muscle.
Prosthesis is an implant filled with physiological serum or silicone gel. There are different types: inflatable or pre filled, and several shapes: round or anatomical (chosen during medical consultation).
POST SURGICAL PROCEDURES
You could be out of the clinic 24 to 48 hours after surgery. During this period, breasts hurt but are flexible. During 15 days breasts are sensitive and extensive movements of arms are somewhat bothersome.
It takes about 3 months to « forget about » your prosthesis and to start a normal sport activity again, as well as breastfeeding or an eventual pregnancy. A yearly clinical follow-up as well as x-ray of your breasts is in no way altered.
There are no changes while travelling by plane or scuba diving.
YOUR STAY IN TUNISIA
A 14 days stay in Tunisia is recommended to have the expected successful result and gain the possibility of having a post surgical consultation. A 24 to 48 hours hospitalization is needed.
RESULTS
Most of the time, breasts are flexible and natural.
The sensitivity and protruding of the nipples are maintained.
An eventual change of implants could occur after approximately 10 years. X-ray surveillance of the breasts is easy.
COMPLICATIONS
It is sometimes possible to feel the implant at the bottom of the gland and also in certain positions, especially when both the mammary gland and the skin are very thin.
The only true complication (3% of the cases) is the « shell ». Its appearance is unpredictable and requires a new surgery intervention to free the prosthesis from the fibrous envelope that is too thick and surrounding it. Most of the time, after releasing it, the “shell” does not reappear and cases of real intolerance are seldom. It appears that the percentage is even lower with the actual textured membrane prostheses. |
