Breast augmentation before and after
How does breast augmentation work?
For a breast augmentation, you first have a consultation. Here, you discuss your wishes so the consultant can determine how to fulfill them. You will try on different prostheses and talk about your health. Be sure to bring a list of your medications. Once all important matters are discussed, you will schedule a meeting with the plastic surgeon. During this second appointment, you will discuss the treatment plan.
The surgery is performed under general anesthesia. The plastic surgeon makes incisions in the breasts, as discussed beforehand. The implants are placed through these incisions. Once they are in position, the incisions are stitched and covered with bandages. You will be taken to the recovery room, where you will gradually wake up. After a check-up, you can go home the same day. The surgery takes about an hour.
Breast Augmentation Step-by-Step Plan
You can reach us from Monday to Friday between 09:00 and 15:00 at 088 101 4600. Choose option 1 if you want to inquire about fillers or muscle relaxants. For questions regarding surgery, select option 2.
First, you will have a consultation with a consultant. Here, you will discuss the key points: the process, your wishes, the possibilities, aftercare, etc. Your breasts will be measured, and together you will determine which size suits you best. You will be given a special fitting bra and T-shirt, and a few photos will be taken. You will also discuss your health. It’s important to bring your medication list (AMO), which you can get from your pharmacy. At the end of your consultation, you will schedule a meeting with the plastic surgeon. You will also look ahead to select a surgery date.
The surgery is performed under general anesthesia, so you won’t feel anything! Your plastic surgeon will make incisions at a pre-discussed location, allowing them to insert the breast implants. Once they are properly positioned, the incisions will be closed, and everything will be bandaged. This entire process takes about an hour. Afterward, you will be taken to the recovery room where you will gradually wake up. Following a check-up, you will be able to go home the same day.
The recovery takes about six weeks, but this can vary from person to person. During this period, you must get plenty of rest. No lifting, bending, exercising, or driving. After two days, you can remove the bandages yourself, and the stitches will dissolve on their own. During your consultation, you will receive detailed aftercare instructions.

Result after a breast augmentation
The outcome of a breast augmentation is clear: fuller, larger breasts. The exact size will depend on the decisions made during your consultation. Many of our patients who have undergone breast augmentation report a significant boost in self-confidence and improved body proportions. While you’re on your way to these results, a bit of patience is needed. In the first few weeks after surgery, your breasts will be supported by a postoperative bra and covered with bandages, ensuring optimal healing and recovery.
After two weeks, you can remove the bandages, and after six weeks, the bra can come off. You may see some results at that point, but the final outcome will only become truly clear after three months. Full recovery can take up to a year, by which time the scars will have (almost) completely faded. Have you had a breast augmentation before, whether at Faceland or elsewhere, and are you looking for something different? You can opt for an implant exchange.
Recovery breast augmentation
Take sufficient time to recover after a breast augmentation. You will receive pain medication and detailed aftercare instructions to take home. You will also be given a postoperative bra that you must wear day and night for six weeks. Avoid strenuous activities such as bending, lifting, and exercising, and keep your arms low. After two weeks, you can remove the bandages yourself. If you experience complications or have any concerns, please contact us.
You may start driving again after two weeks, but be sure to listen to your body. Try to live as healthily as possible, as this will aid your recovery. For example, avoid smoking two weeks before and four weeks after the breast augmentation. After six weeks, you can resume all your daily activities, but the results will only start to become visible after three months. The final outcome will be optimal one year after your breast augmentation.

Frequently Asked Questions About Breast Augmentations
The price of breast augmentation depends on the brand and size of the prosthesis to be placed. The consultation is always free and non-binding. Check the price list for an indication of the costs for your breast augmentation.
The surgery takes about 1 hour. Afterward, you’ll be taken to a recovery room where you can slowly recover from the anesthesia. Often, you can go home the same day.
Breast augmentation adds extra volume through implants. After the operation, you’ll definitely have a larger cup size. A breast lift, on the other hand, addresses sagging breasts by removing excess skin tissue. So, you don’t get extra volume. You can also choose to combine the two procedures.
After breast surgery, you should take it easy for at least six weeks. After two weeks, light activities are possible again, but it’s advisable to wait six weeks before exercising. With heavy fitness, it’s better to wait three months. We strongly advise against smoking six weeks before and after the surgery.
