What Is the Difference Between Breast Augmentation and Breast Implants?

What Is the Difference Between Breast Augmentation and Breast Implants?

People often confuse breast augmentation and breast implants. They are similar in name but have considerable differences. While a lot of people get confused about their differences, procedure, and purpose, here is a quick overview of how they are different. 

Both of these popular surgical treatments have different aims for patients but are interdependent for any necessary breast enhancement.

If you are looking into breast enhancement here is what you need to know to begin with – before seeing a Board-Certified Cosmetic Surgeon for a direct answer.

Breast Augmentation

Breast augmentation is a surgical procedure that involves placing implants underneath the chest muscles or breast tissue, forming pockets that will bring about aesthetical enhancement of the breast. The result is perkier and fuller breasts with improved shape. The procedure enhances the appearance of fuller and bigger breasts. 

Breast implants are mostly used for cosmetic amplification for patients who have suffered damage from mastectomy due to cancer, breast ptosis from breastfeeding, or excessive weight loss.

Breast Implants 

A breast implant refers to when a woman has a prosthesis placed inside her breast as a way to completely reconstruct or shape the breast. Due to advancements with silicone implants, the procedure results in a breast that mimics the shape and movement of a natural breast. There are several factors when it comes to considering a breast implant including shape (teardrop or round-shaped), texture, the overall size. 

 

Are Both Silicone and Saline Safe Choices?

When it comes to breast implants, there are two options to choose from: silicone and saline. While silicone is more popular among pop culture celebrities, both seem to have no difference when it comes to aesthetical enhancement.

Saline implants, which are less expensive compared to silicone, are the only available option for 18-year-olds. Saline implants give a more natural and realistic feel as they sit and move easily. They are easily detected when ruptured due to their noticeable deflating effect on the breast.

Silicone implants are made of silicone, a synthetic material that mimics the texture and feel of human fat. Both saline and silicone implants are FDA approved, but silicone is the most likely to rupture with an increased difficulty of detecting leakage, as they can get trapped in the fibrous capsule that forms around the implant after surgery. It’s why most manufacturers and experts recommend periodic check-ups.

 

What Are the Benefits of Breast Augmentation?

Among the many benefits of breast augmentation, improved physique and curves seem to be the most sought-after.

However, breast augmentation goes a long way to restoring confidence for women who suffer from trauma, weight loss, or losing their sense of feeling ladylike.

1. Improved confidence

Many women find that breast augmentation adds a little spice to their life. They experience significant boosts of confidence and self-esteem that help them in their work, careers, family, and social life. A little curve enhancement can go a long way in giving you added vitality and vigor. 

2. A Youthful Appearance

Natural signs of aging include sagging breasts. Revitalize your appearance and feel young again by adding a little bounce to your life. 

Breast augmentation, such as a lift, restoration, or restructure, can return your breast to its former glory, giving you a more young and healthy appearance.

3. More Clothing Options 

Those beautiful strapless gowns or summer tees might suddenly fit a little better. With breast augmentation, a new line of clothing options might just open up to you. Many women find that the added mass allows for more wardrobe options that accentuate the curves. 

4. Improved Symmetry

Breast enhancement can be useful for women that have some form of asymmetry in their bodies. A woman, for example, born with genetic issues or that has undergone trauma or surgery, may experience issues with the symmetrical makeup of her breast. Through cosmetic surgery, a more symmetrical structure can be formed, implementing proper alignment that seems naturally appealing. 

Additionally, breast augmentation also improves proportion by reconstructing the affected areas of the breast with borrowed skin and tissues, restoring proportionality where it was once missing.

How Much Does Breast Augmentation Surgery Cost?

Breast augmentation in some locations like the United States can cost anything between $5,000 to $10,000. 

In Turkey, which has become a popular destination in recent years, it has been known to cost as little as $3000.  This includes a state-of-the-art facility that has all of the latest medical accommodations, state-of-the-art equipment, trained personnel, and staff. In this scenario, health insurance policy is not much of an issue to added cost.
