Breast implants are a cosmetic surgical procedure that involves placing an implant that is filled with liquid under the breast tissue to increase the size or shape of the breast. While often done for aesthetic reasons, there are also medical situations where breast implants are used as part of breast reconstruction after a mastectomy or due to an imbalance in breast development.

The majority of women who choose breast implants do so to boost self-confidence and feel better about appearance. Some may feel dissatisfied with the natural size of the breasts, while others may have experienced physical changes after pregnancy or weight loss. Choosing breast implants can be a thoughtful decision, which involves evaluating personal motivations and realistic expectations.

Breast augmentation can change the size and shape of your breasts. The surgery might improve your body image and self-esteem. If you choose to use anatomical implants for your breast augmentation surgery, make sure you choose your surgeon carefully. Due to the unique shape of the implant, a very precise size will need to be created. You may also experience increased sensations, especially around the nipples, within weeks and months after surgery, because your nerves are stiffened and irritated, but those sensations will disappear soon afterwards. If your implant flips, you will need breast revision surgery to correct it.⁣
