What are the benefits of Breast Enlargement?
Deciding to undergo breast enlargement, also known as breast augmentation or augmentation mammoplasty, is a highly personal choice that should be made after careful consideration and consultation with qualified medical professionals.
Here are some reasons why individuals, like you, may consider breast enlargement and what they can expect:
6 benefits of Breast Enlargement
- Enhanced Appearance
One of the primary reasons individuals opt for breast enlargement is to enhance their physical appearance. This procedure can help achieve a more proportionate figure, increase breast size, and improve symmetry. - Boost Self-Confidence
Many people feel more confident and comfortable in their bodies after breast enlargement. It can positively impact self-esteem and body image, leading to increased confidence in social, personal, and professional settings. - Correct Asymmetry
Breast enlargement can address breast asymmetry, where one breast is noticeably smaller than the other. By increasing the size of one or both breasts, a more symmetrical appearance can be achieved. - Reconstruction after Surgery
Some individuals undergo breast enlargement as part of breast reconstruction following mastectomy or other breast surgeries due to medical reasons like breast cancer. This procedure can help restore the natural shape and size of the breasts. - Post-Pregnancy Changes
Pregnancy, breastfeeding, and significant weight loss can cause changes in breast size and shape. Breast enlargement can restore volume and firmness lost during these processes. - Improved Clothing Fit
For some individuals, enlarging their breasts can make it easier to find clothing that fits well and feels comfortable, especially for styles that emphasise the bust area.
- Enhanced Appearance
Many people feel more confident and comfortable in their bodies after breast enlargement positively impacting self-esteem, body image, and confidence.
What to expect when undergoing a Breast Enlargement:
- Consultation
The process typically begins with a consultation with an accredited plastic surgeon. During this consultation, you’ll discuss your goals, medical history, and the options available to you. - Surgical Procedure
Breast enlargement is usually performed under general anaesthesia. Mr Fitton will make incisions, typically in inconspicuous areas, to minimise visible scarring. Implants are then inserted either beneath the breast tissue or beneath the chest muscle. - Recovery
Recovery time varies from person to person but typically involves some discomfort, swelling, and bruising for the first few days to weeks. Most individuals can return to work and normal activities within a week or two, although strenuous activities should be avoided for several weeks. - Results
Initially, there may be swelling and the breasts may appear larger than the final result. Over time, swelling will diminish, and the breasts will settle into their new shape and size. It may take several months for the final results to be fully apparent and appreciated. - Long-term Care
Regular follow-up appointments with Mr Fitton are important to monitor healing and ensure optimal results. Additionally, it’s essential to follow post-operative care instructions provided by Mr Fitton to minimise risks and complications.

Expectations and outcomes
It’s important to note that while breast enlargement can provide significant benefits, it also carries risks and potential complications, like any surgical procedure. It’s crucial to thoroughly research the procedure, choose a qualified and experienced surgeon, and have realistic expectations about the outcomes.
