Breast augmentation is one of the most common cosmetic surgery procedures and has been developed over the last 40 years to become a refined and highly effective procedure. As cosmetic surgery goes, breast augmentation is always in the media thanks to a seemingly endless stream of alleged health scares, or pages of “has she, hasn’t she” photos concerning celebrities. SIlicon implants came under attack in the 1990’s thanks to a group of American lawyers casting doubt on their safety. Silicon implants were prohibited from being used for breast augmentation in the United states for 14 years as they were linked to a range of health problems ranging from rheumatoid arthritis to possible birth defects. The development of silicon implants has led to fantastic improvements in their safety, silicon implants are now much less likely to leak or rupture than their older versions mainly due to their thick outer shells created from multiple layers of silicon rubber. Fears that silicon implants may lead to auto-immune disae. This has reassured many women who have had breast augmentation in Manhattan. The UK Department of Health has not to date found any reason to ban the use of silion implants, but research will continue into their safety as a matter of course.

The development and refinement of new techniques means Manhattan breast augmentation patients can now not only choose the type of implant they have, but also where to have the incisions made and where to have the implant placed. Implants have benefitted from technological advancements meaning a wider range and style of implants are available for surgeons to create much more personalised breast augmentations.

Implants come in many sizes, meaning the potential increase in breast size isn’t limited to one or two cup sizes, however it is important to make sure the size increase will look in proportion with the rest of the body. Of course, these are all things that would be discussed in detail with the surgeon at pre-surgery consultation which is essential before even considering having breast enhancement in Manhattan.
