Breast augmentation is for the purpose of enlarging small breasts or even asymmetric breasts with breast implants or fat grafting. There are other plastic and cosmetic surgery performed to the breasts, but the purpose of breast enlargement is termed as breast augmentation.
The ideal time to consider the surgery is sometime in the mid-20s when the growth cycle is at mature stage. And if you are planning to have children then consider the surgery afterwards such life events because pregnancy and child birth bear risks though it is not inevitable, to damage breast implants by means or rupturing; contracting or sagging. Though breast implants do not interfere with breast feeding.
Now the first importance of the surgery is the surgeon. To find the right surgeon, seekers must consider the fact that breast augmentation cost in the United Kingdom and the world over is expensive with the standard price starting from 3,000-6,500 depending on the profile of the cosmetic clinic, or hospital.
Breast augmentation is called prosthesis devices that are sized and built in various designs and builds to accommodate the required volume or symmetry. The devices are built of an outer shell and a filler gel that mimic the physical appearance of breasts. The outer shell is made of medical grade silicone and the filler gel is made of either silicone gel or saline water. Hence, there are two types of materials of breast implant devices: silicone and saline.
Either ways the outer shell of the device is made of silicon, now the matter of choice is only the filler gel whether to be saline or silicone. There are pros and cons with both saline and silicone implants. And it is mostly subjective to the patient's condition and desire that makes the ideal choice. Silicone gel devices are pre-filled with the gel, while saline gel can be filled in after the hollow silicone shell is placed to the breasts.
Incision and placement types for the surgery

€ Transaxiliary Incision: The side of the breast fold closer to the armpits the breast implants is slid to the place
€ Periareolar Incision: Or cutting open a small portion of the breast below the areola
Placement of the devices Types include
€ Sub-glandular: Above the breast glands
€ Sub-pectoralis/Split muscle: Underneath the pectoralis muscle of the breast
€ Sub Muscular: over the breast below the skin.
