Breast augmentation allows the size and shape of the breasts to be adjusted precisely while preserving a natural look and feel.
Breast augmentation is one of the most common aesthetic surgery procedures worldwide. Well-proportioned breasts can improve confidence and help correct asymmetry, including after pregnancy or weight loss. The aim is to achieve the desired breast size and shape while maintaining a natural appearance that is in harmony with the body’s contours. The implant is always selected individually, taking into account the patient’s anatomy, body shape, skin elasticity and expectations.
Breast augmentation is performed using silicone implants from recognised manufacturers. The choice of implant depends on the desired result and the patient’s anatomy. The operation lasts up to 40 minutes and is performed under general anaesthesia. The incision is usually made in the breast crease so that the resulting scar is as inconspicuous as possible. The procedure is performed at the Plastic Surgery Centre at Kotka Private Clinic, where the patient remains overnight for observation. The implant may be placed:
The implant position is determined during the consultation, taking into account the shape of the chest, tissue thickness and the desired result. The aim is to achieve a natural-looking, balanced result that remains stable over time.
The consultation takes place at the Plastic Surgery Centre at Kotka Private Clinic. An initial assessment can also be provided by email based on photographs. During the consultation, the doctor will assess the shape of the chest, the condition of the skin and the patient’s expectations to determine the most suitable implant and surgical technique. How to prepare for your consultation
The operation is performed under general anaesthesia at Kotka Private Clinic. You will not feel any pain during the procedure. The patient remains in hospital overnight for observation.
Mild swelling and tightness are common during the first few days.
Should swelling, pain or asymmetry cause concern, take a photograph and send it to the clinic. The doctor will assess the situation and advise you on what to do next.
Breast augmentation is a safe procedure, but as with any surgery, rare complications may occur. These include:
All risks and the measures used to reduce them will be discussed during the consultation.
Breast augmentation may make natural differences between the breasts, such as slight asymmetry, more noticeable. This is normal and will be taken into account when planning the procedure. The aim is to achieve a balanced result that is in proportion with the body, rather than perfect symmetry. Breast augmentation is often combined with a breast lift to correct sagging. The implants are tested and come with a long-term warranty. Implants do not need to be replaced at fixed intervals. Regular check-ups are recommended every five to ten years. For more information about when and why implant replacement may be necessary, see: Breast implant replacement → Maintaining a stable body weight and attending regular follow-up appointments can help preserve the result.
The most suitable implant can be recommended after assessing the structure and proportions of the breasts.
