A lot of women now opt for cosmetic breast enlargement to feel more attractive and boost their self confidence. What they don't know, however, is the physical, mental and emotional preparation required prior to surgery and the adjustments needed during the aftermath. Knowing what to expect from beginning to end makes it so much easier for the patient to handle, and the recuperation period faster. So here's a run-down of the possible scenario.
Before the Operation
You may be asked to undergo mammograms, x-rays and routine breast exam. This will allow the surgeon to determine the shape and size of your breasts and their inframmamary creases. Don’t be surprised as you may be pinched or tugged gently on your skin. This is done to give a tentative measurement of the distance between your breasts. Knowing if you are loose, lax, and other variables helps the surgeon make the proper recommendation regarding the best breast implants suited to your body type.
During the Consultation
Come in early as this lessens the anxiety compared when you are hurried and late for the appointment. Ask all the questions you want, do not feel embarrassed or worried if some of them sound silly or stupid. After all it is your body, you have every right to know what it will undergo, and this will help greatly in the adjustment period.
It's better if you have a ready set of questions prepared at home so there is no chance to miss out on anything you want raised or discussed simply because you are too nervous to think. It is also great to have photographs with you so your doctor has a clear visual representation of how you want your breasts to look like. Have reasonable, realistic expectations when discussing your goals with your doctor as well as your motives for wanting this done. Do not forget to ask about the risk and possible complications such as implant deflation or rupture and what to do when this happens.
Finally, ask if it is all right to speak with your surgeon’s former patients for they are the best people to attest to the skill and satisfying results you are hoping to find. All good and professional cosmetic surgeons do not mind, in fact, they welcome this opportunity to ease their patients' mind and prove their proven medical capability.

Costs and Warranty
The cost of the operation relies heavily on several factors. Some of these are the type of breast operation, breast implant type and profile, the cosmetic surgeon performing the procedure. Highly trained surgeons with years of experience successfully performing cosmetic breast enlargement surgeries naturally have higher rates. Finally, where is the location of the operation – a hospital or an office facility? Warranties are offered for a limited time since no lifetime warranties are offered yet. Read and understand carefully all written documents for your protection and future concerns.
On the Day of the Surgery
Make sure you are accompanied by someone to be with you for a day or two starting on the day of your operation. Take all your pre-op meds and refrain from taking aspirin, warfarin, and other drugs known to be blood thinners. Wear loose fitting clothing and remove all jewellery and nail polish. Make sure your bed, sofa and chairs are properly made up with clean sheets and fluffed pillows so you are comfortably settled when you get home. Fruits, vegetables, yogurt, crackers, oats, Jell-O and other nutritious, but easy and ready to eat food are stacked in your fridge in case your appetite is still down within a couple of days. Keep all your emergency numbers handy, especially that of your surgeon.
Finally, relax. If good preparation and patient education is properly done prior to cosmetic breast enlargement, this is easily achieved.
