Breast Enhancement
Tips & Advice
|
Muscle Up Interestingly, the breasts do not
contain muscle tissue. But muscle underlies the breasts, therefore
working out is not merely an exercise in futility. Exercise can
lift and shape the series of muscles located underneath the breast.
These muscles, working together with a ligament called Cooper's
ligament, simulate the support of a natural bra.
Do not attempt any exercise after your breast surgery until directed
to do so by your surgeon. |
Implants
and Breast-Feeding Many women are concerned about being able to
breast feed their children after breast surgery. In most cases,
breast implants should not affect the ability to breast-feed or produce
milk. Even if you experience difficulty breast-feeding, it may not
necessarily be related to your breast augmentation-some studies report
that 10 to 15 percent of women who have never had breast surgery cannot
adequately breast-feed. Breast reduction surgery can further
increase the risk of breast-feeding problems. Regardless, it's
important to tell your plastic surgeon if you are planning to have
children after any breast surgery. |

The Switch to Silicone "I have saline
implants. Now that silicone may be available again, should I make the
switch?"
Silicone may feel somewhat more like natural breast tissue but that
doesn't mean silicone implants are the right choice for every women.
If you are happy with the appearance and there is no other reason for
implant replacement, you can leave the saline implants alone.
However, if you are looking for a change in size or shape, if your
implants no longer match your body image, or if you are experiencing any
condition that warrants replacement your should consult with your
plastic surgeon. |
Breast Wishes Women explore breast enhancement
for a myriad of reasons--a desire to have larger breasts, to return to
pre-pregnancy shape, to regain a figure altered by cancer or other
trauma or just to turn back the clock.
