During this stage, the surgeon:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Evaluates your breast anatomy<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Discusses your aesthetic goals<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Reviews medical history<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Explains implant options<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Uses measurements and imaging for planning<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>You and your surgeon decide the implant size, shape, and placement technique.

The two most popular kinds of implants are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>1. Silicone Implants<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>These implants feel soft and natural since they are filled with silicone gel. Because of their lifelike texture, they are frequently utilised in breast augmentation surgery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>2. Saline Implants<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Filled with sterile saltwater, these implants allow size adjustment during surgery and require smaller incisions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your surgeon may also discuss round vs. anatomical (teardrop) shapes, surface texture, and implant profile. Choosing the right implant ensures a balanced and attractive result.<\/p>\n\n\n\n  <div class=\"lux-info-banner\" style=\"\n    background:#915097;\n\tmargin-bottom:20px;\n    padding:24px 16px;\n    text-align:center;\n    border-radius:2px;\n    color:#ffffff;\n    font-size:20px;\n    line-height:1.5;\n    font-weight:500;\n    white-space:normal;\n    word-break:break-word;\">\n    <div class=\"lux-info-title\">\n      <strong><\/strong>\n    <\/div>\n    <div class=\"lux-info-cta\" style=\"margin-top:6px;\">\n      <!-- Mobile: Call -->\n      <a href=\"tel:07969084422\" \n         class=\"lux-info-call\">\n         Choose Perfect Implant Type For You \n      <\/a>\n      <!-- Desktop: Trigger Care Console -->\n      <a href=\"#\" \n         class=\"lux-info-whatsapp\"\n         onclick=\"(function(e){\n           e.preventDefault();\n           var el = document.querySelector('.triger-carecansole');\n           if(el){ el.click(); }\n         })(event);\">\n         Choose Perfect Implant Type For You \n      <\/a>\n    <\/div>\n    <style>\n      .lux-info-call,\n      .lux-info-whatsapp{\n        color:#ffffff;\n        text-decoration:none;\n        display:inline-block;\n        cursor:pointer;\n      }\n      .lux-info-whatsapp{\n        display:none;\n      }\n      .lux-info-call:hover,\n      .lux-info-whatsapp:hover{\n        text-decoration:underline;\n        color:#ffffff;\n      }\n      @media (min-width:768px){\n        .lux-info-call{display:none;}\n        .lux-info-whatsapp{display:inline-block;}\n      }\n    <\/style>\n  <\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Anaesthesia and Preparation<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/luxhospitals.com\/blog\/plastic-and-cosmetic\/myths-about-breast-augmentation\/\"><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);color:#0693e3\" class=\"has-inline-color\">Breast Augmentation Surgery<\/mark><\/a> is usually performed under general anaesthesia.

The inframammary incision is commonly preferred in Breast Augmentation Surgery because it allows better precision and minimal visible scarring<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Implant Placement<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The surgeon makes a pocket for the implant after making the incision. Placement of the implant is possible:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Subglandular<\/strong>: Behind the tissue of the breasts<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Submuscular<\/strong>: The muscle beneath the chest<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Submuscular implantation frequently minimises noticeable rippling and produces a more natural contour. To ensure symmetry and a natural shape, the surgeon carefully positions the implant. After placement, the incision is closed using sutures, surgical tape, or skin adhesive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n  <div class=\"lux-info-banner\" style=\"\n    background:#915097;\n\tmargin-bottom:20px;\n    padding:24px 16px;\n    text-align:center;\n    border-radius:2px;\n    color:#ffffff;\n    font-size:20px;\n    line-height:1.5;\n    font-weight:500;\n    white-space:normal;\n    word-break:break-word;\">\n    <div class=\"lux-info-title\">\n      <strong><\/strong>\n    <\/div>\n    <div class=\"lux-info-cta\" style=\"margin-top:6px;\">\n      <!-- Mobile: Call -->\n      <a href=\"tel:07969084422\" \n         class=\"lux-info-call\">\n         Achieve Balanced Natural Shape at Lux Hospitals\n      <\/a>\n      <!-- Desktop: Trigger Care Console -->\n      <a href=\"#\" \n         class=\"lux-info-whatsapp\"\n         onclick=\"(function(e){\n           e.preventDefault();\n           var el = document.querySelector('.triger-carecansole');\n           if(el){ el.click(); }\n         })(event);\">\n         Achieve Balanced Natural Shape at Lux Hospitals\n      <\/a>\n    <\/div>\n    <style>\n      .lux-info-call,\n      .lux-info-whatsapp{\n        color:#ffffff;\n        text-decoration:none;\n        display:inline-block;\n        cursor:pointer;\n      }\n      .lux-info-whatsapp{\n        display:none;\n      }\n      .lux-info-call:hover,\n      .lux-info-whatsapp:hover{\n        text-decoration:underline;\n        color:#ffffff;\n      }\n      @media (min-width:768px){\n        .lux-info-call{display:none;}\n        .lux-info-whatsapp{display:inline-block;}\n      }\n    <\/style>\n  <\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Recovery After Breast Augmentation Surgery<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Recovery from Breast Augmentation Surgery typically takes a few weeks.
