Meet with Your Doctor
Getting your questions answered is one of the most important steps in considering a breast augmentation. The procedure can be highly effective and it can provide you with the results you need. However, in order for that to happen, you need to be comfortable with the process, the doctor and the risks you are taking on. To do that, the best route is to ask as many questions as you can so you can learn about the entire process.
The following are some of the most important questions to ask your cosmetic surgeon before you move forward. Doing so will answer your concerns and help give you an idea of what to really expect.
– What is the doctor’s training and experience? Does the professional use the latest technology and procedures to reduce risk and to increase the overall success of the procedure?
– Is the cosmetic surgeon able to provide you with before and after pictures of previous patients so you can see the difference? More so, you should be able to see what the realistic finished look will be for you through computerized programs or other methods.
– What are the risks of having this procedure? Because it is a surgical procedure, there is the risk of complications like infections. Your surgeon should tell you these but also help reduce your risk by offering a safe environment.
– What is the recovery time for the procedure? What amount of pain will you feel prior to the procedure, after and during?
– What can you expect in terms of the expectancy of the implants? What will they look and feel like? How long will they last? Will you need to have future procedures?
Breast augmentation does differ from one person to the next depending on the choices you make and your body type. However, your cosmetic surgeon will be able to provide you with a good estimation of what will occur during the process. You should have no problem understanding what to expect during the process. The good news is that most of these procedures do have very favorable results.
