Breast Augmentation - Breast lift

Breast augmentation is the most popular plastic surgery procedure in Greece. Many women choose to grow their breasts in order to better match their body type in order to make them feel more beautiful, more feminine and to stimulate their self-confidence. Others are driven to breast augmentation or lift after suffering from pregnancy, breastfeeding, weight loss or mastectomy and others because they have amorphous, small, uneven breasts. Whatever the case, it is certain that  breast augmentation has a proven positive effect on both the appearance and psychology of women.

You will proceed with some tests, such as general blood, chest X-ray and mammography (if you are over 35 years of age), as well as further tests, as appropriate.

Breast augmentation: The operation

Your surgeon will make incisions in your chest, either in the fold under your chest, around your nipple or towards your armpit. This allows breast implants to be placed in place, as appropriate:

In front of the chest muscle - this is suitable for those who have some massive tissue already so it becomes larger or if you want to restore fullness to deflated breasts.

Behind the chest muscle - this is suitable for ladies with very small breasts who do not have excess skin-.

This method reduces the risk of implants, but with this method it is more difficult to place larger implants. Questions about plastic breast augmentation
