breast augmentationBreast augmentation, technically known as augmentation sucked plasty is a surgical procedure to enhance the size and shape of the breast of the woman in the following situations: to improve the silhouette of the woman who thinks her breasts are too small to correct breast reduction that occurs after several pregnancies, to correct a difference in size between both breasts. As a reconstructive procedure following breast surgery.

You can increase breast size once or several sizes through the introduction of an implant under the mammary gland or the pectoral muscle, depending on the features.

Before the person decides to have surgery, you should think carefully about your expectations and discuss them with your surgeon.

Types of incisions

There are 3 main access routes for breast implants.

1. The areola: placement through the lower edge of the areola (periareolar inferior) because the contrast area of skin tones.

Even in patients with dark skin or dark areolas recommended to expose the scar still immature (hyperemia) to sunlight or ultraviolet rays, as normally this is pigmented and is camouflaged further. In white patients is sought, however, protect the scar matures so once pearly be confused with the surrounding skin.

History of Transplants Techniques

Monday, February 1st, 2010

According to Takei and Coll. (1985), the problem post-operatively the most common techniques related transplants, the rejection is immediate, partial or total implant materials. In most cases, the cause is related to a surgical technique resulting in incomplete coverage of the tissue graft material in the interproximal areas. Although apparently there was an approximation of tissues during the laying of sutures, tissue shrinkage due to the healing will often strip the material of the graft during the postoperative period. Because of the difficulties observed, they developed a technique of preservation of papillae in order to use them in combination with bone grafts and synthetic materials in cases of periodontal bone defects (Takei HH, Han TJ, Carranza FA Jr, Kenney EB Flap technique for periodontal bone implants. J Periodontol 1985; 56:204-210).

In 1949, Schluger was one of the first researchers to describe the principles of surgical resection associated with bone bone remaining cases for which we could establish physiological contours without attachment loss, eliminate craters and interdental intrabony defects in to eradicate periodontal pockets and to achieve gingival architecture and physiological bone after surgery (Schluger SA basic principle in periodontal surgery.
