One of the most frequent doubts that patients have when they consider having breast surgery is “what size is the most convenient for my body?
It is advisable not to go to the consultation with a fixed idea, since the ideal is to be advised by a specialist in Plastic Surgery. Thanks to the experience of the experts, they can find a consensus between the patient’s wishes and the size that, according to the morphology of the patient’s own body, may fit better.
What factors does the choice of size depend on?
The variables that come into play in this decision are multiple. The most obvious is the aspect that the patient seeks to give to the result, that is, if she wants to increase volume in a noticeable or natural way or if she prefers simply to correct some asymmetry.
However, there are other aspects to take into account, such as lifestyle or the shape of each person’s body. In this sense, it is important that the analysis and assessment be personalized and take into account the characteristics of each woman.
The aim of the choice of size and surgical intervention is to achieve both the desired result and an aesthetic harmony with the rest of the body. For this reason, the specialist must take measures to advise the patient appropriately, according to her height, thoracic measurements, shoulders and hips.
Advanced technology in breast surgery
Thanks to new techniques, it is now possible to perform a postoperative simulation, which allows us to visualize the result. In the office of Dr. Escariz uses Crisalix, a 3D virtual program that reduces anxiety and uncertainty for patients, since it is possible to preview how certain sizes would look from all perspectives.
