According to statistics, the vast majority of women are not satisfied with the size of their breasts. Without surgery, breasts can increase during pregnancy, with weight gain, before menstruation. In other cases, to correct the shape, you will have to resort to methods that have proven themselves well: surgery, massage, sports, cosmetology.
To choose an effective and safe way to enlarge the mammary glands, it is necessary to take into account their initial state, the result of the planned transformation, the general health of the patient.
Breast augmentation surgery techniques
Breast augmentation with prosthesis is characterized by access to the pocket where the silicone prosthesis will be placed.
In most cases, the doctor will cut the tissue around the circumference of the nipple. This is due to the fact that the scar will be invisible on the areola and a decrease in the diameter of the nipple is necessary for almost all patients who decide on plastic surgery.
Access through the armpit or the area around the navel is used less often, as this technique is much more complicated and requires long-term rehabilitation.
The method of performing the operation may differ in the location of the implant: under the gland, under the muscle or a combined method.
Expected outcome of breast augmentation with implants
Following the operation with the use of silicone implants, it is possible to enlarge the breasts of different sizes. But to assess how harmonious the new forms will be, 3D modeling is used - visualization in a graphics program into which the patient's photographs are loaded.
Almost 95% of women who have undergone mammoplasty are satisfied with the result, contrary to statistics on another popular operation: rhinoplasty, where the number of repeat visits to the surgeon is high.
Types of implants
The implants are distinguished by their shape:
- round;
- anatomical, teardrop-shaped.
The choice is made by the patient on the basis of aesthetic preferences and type of build. Anatomical prostheses look natural; after the tissues have healed, the surgeon's intervention will not be evident. But the round implants do not lose their shape, even several decades after the operation. To prevent the migration of artificial breasts, you should choose implants with a textured rather than a smooth surface.
It may also differ in the composition of the implant filler:
- silicone;
- biogel;
- saline solution.
Saline-filled dentures are soft to the touch and have the most affordable price. Gel and silicone make the implants firm and elastic. Gel-filled implants are not always rigid: there are three degrees of density:
- soft, which lose their shape faster than others, but are indistinguishable from the mammary glands;
- firm, retaining its shape for a long time;
- soft touch, which is a compromise between hard and soft.
To select an implant, the surgeon must describe in detail what result he wants to see after the operation and whether the bust should look natural.
Breast Lift
With fluctuations in body weight, breastfeeding or with initially large breasts, ptosis inevitably develops: the bust sags, seems unfilled. In this case, it is necessary to remove the excess fabric to restore a beautiful shape. In this case, implants cannot be used, as the breast visually appears more voluminous after the operation.
The surgical method depends on the severity of the ptosis. With a slight lift, periareolar surgery is usually used, in which the surgeon makes two incisions: along the contour of the areola of the nipple and above. The flap of excess tissue is removed and the edges of the two incisions are sutured.
If the patient's breasts are more deformed in the upper half and the nipples are directed downwards, a half-moon cutting method is used, when the nipple is raised in the same way as periareolar mastopexy.
For significant ptosis, an anchor lift is used, in which an anchor-shaped incision is made, the upper point of which starts at the nipple and the lower line runs horizontally along the crease of the breast.
Endoscopic breast augmentation
Endoscopy differs from normal surgery for the use of special equipment that allows you to make an incision no more than 4 cm long to insert the prosthesis from a point distant from the chest. The surgeon can observe the process of placing the implant under the muscles on a screen, where the image is transmitted from an endoscope equipped with a camera.
This method of surgery is safe, while no one can guess the unnaturalness of the breast, as there will be no signs of surgery on the breast.
Breast augmentation in the salon
If you plan to increase your breasts by no more than 1 size, you can resort to cosmetic procedures that stimulate blood circulation and strengthen the skin.
Myostimulation
During myostimulation, there is an effect of current discharges on the pectoral muscles. The mammary glands will not increase in size, but the muscles will become bulky. A similar effect can be achieved with the help of physical exercises, but sport, unlike the course of myostimulation, has many contraindications.
Microcurrent therapy
Microcurrents, like myostimulation, are a procedure in which an electric current is applied. But in this case, it does not affect the muscles, but the skin. The improvement of local metabolism affects the reduction of collagen fibers, responsible for the firmness of the skin.
Laser procedure
The laser helps to firm the skin and eliminate minor ptosis. In some clinics, the procedure is called laser rejuvenation - by strengthening the breast frame, you can make it more voluminous and elastic, but it will not be possible to increase the size of the breast in this way.
Mesotherapy or biorevitalization
Injectable cosmetology is one of the most effective ways to improve skin condition. Biorevitalization and mesotherapy make it possible to inject hyaluronic acid and vitamin complexes to the desired depth of the skin. And the injections themselves cause an accelerated production of elastin and collagen for the regeneration of the skin damaged by the needle.
Treatments designed to improve the condition of the skin cannot enlarge the breasts. But you can introduce fillers into the bust, which will make the forms lush for up to six months.
Before augmenting the breast with contour plastic, you need to make sure that there are no contraindications:
- decrease in blood viscosity;
- menstruation;
- infection in the body;
- allergies or autoimmune diseases.
How to enlarge the breast using folk methods?
Numerous alternative methods of breast enlargement are generally ineffective. Such methods of therapy as massages, drugs, sports and special cosmetics have a proven clinical effect, while decoctions, infusions and lotions do not in any way affect the size of the breast and muscles.
Breast enlargement massage
Massage is an effective method of breast enlargement without surgery or injections. Helps improve local circulation, strengthen muscles and firm skin. Immediately after the procedure, the effect of a slight breast augmentation occurs,
, but it disappears after a few hours.
Contraindications for massage are:

There are several massage methods, but with any technology, you must first fully perform all manipulations with one breast, and only then move on to the other.
Breast water massage
Hydromassage can be done during the shower every day. After adjusting the pressure so that the water beats strongly, it is necessary to massage the chest in a circle for 2-3 minutes on each side. The water should be comfortable, but not too hot.
After that, you can complicate the procedure by taking a contrast shower. In order not to catch a cold, it is necessary to gradually increase the exposure time to cold water: first 10 seconds with a minute of pause, then 20, 30 and 60 seconds respectively.
Corrective breast massage
Breast reshaping massage is performed with the help of the hands, so it is otherwise called manual. It acts both on the muscles and on the skin, thus helping to make the breasts more round and toned.
During the massage the following manipulations are performed:
- three fingers (middle, index and ring) should be guided around the chest, gradually increasing the pressure;
- slide your fingers from the nipples to the upper chest;
- pinches the breast, trying not to pull the skin, but to act on the soft tissues.

This simple breast enlargement massage includes all the phases of a classic massage: stroking, pinching and tapping. In this case, the procedure takes no more than 5-7 minutes.
Vacuum Breast Massage
