What does breast enlargement involve
Breast implant surgery is carried out under general anaesthetic.
The operation involves:
- making a cut (incision) in the skin next to or below the breast
- positioning the implant – either between your breast tissue and chest muscle, or behind your chest muscle (as discussed during your consultation)
- stitching the incision and covering it with a dressing
The operation takes between 60 and 90 minutes.
Recovery
You should be able to move around soon after having breast enlargement surgery.
It can take a few weeks to fully recover from surgery, so you should take a week or 2 off work. You should not drive for at least 1 week.
