Breast aesthetics is the application in which problems such as breast structure not being obvious according to the height, age and weight of the individual, being larger than the size it should be, sagging condition, and deformity due to traumatic or genetic reasons are eliminated.
In 1962, Dr. Thomas Cronin performed the first silicone breast operation. In this way, it has proven that breast aesthetics can give more permanent and natural results. Halit Ziya Onuralp has been a pioneer in the field of breast aesthetics by performing the first aesthetic application for the first time in our country.
How is Breast Aesthetics Performed?
For breast aesthetics, it is first decided which application to be made with the control of a doctor. After these controls, the type of prosthesis to be preferred is decided. As with all surgeries, various tests are performed to check the individual’s compliance with breast aesthetics. If the individual is suitable for breast aesthetics, this operation is performed with general anesthesia. In the breast augmentation surgery performed, a prosthesis is inserted. However, if the procedure is a breast reduction operation, fat is removed from the breast at the required rate. While these are being done, the lifting application can also be performed at the same time. After the completion of the procedures, the breast is wrapped with bandages and the application is terminated. There are more than one type of prosthesis preferred in breast aesthetic procedure. Therefore, which type of prosthesis to choose differs according to the breast structure of the individual. The types of prostheses used include:
- Drop prosthesis
- Round prosthesis

What is Breast Augmentation Surgery?
Breast augmentation surgery is a type of operation applied to breasts that lose volume and shrink with age, breasts that are deformed due to excessive weight loss, breasts that are deformed after childbirth and breasts that are disproportionate to body style. In this operation, a round or drop-type silicone prosthesis is placed in the breast tissue. In the selection of the type of prosthesis, the age, body style and type of the individual are always taken into account. In breast aesthetics, prosthesis placement is performed with the incision to be made from the armpit, under the breast and around the breast head. Breast augmentation is completed in an average of 2 hours and is performed with general anesthesia.
What is Breast Reduction Surgery?
Breast reduction surgery is applied to breasts that are larger than they should be due to weight gain, due to developmental factors, or due to certain tumors. Too large chest structure can lead to neck, back and shoulder pain, shortness of breath and various posture disorders. In order for the individual to have a lighter, healthier and aesthetic appearance, excess fats in the breast tissue are removed. In this way, it is ensured that the individual achieves the breast image he imagines.
In breast reduction surgery, a single vertical incision of 5-6 centimeters is opened from the head of the chest to the bottom. Minimal incision is provided. If 1000 g or more of skin and tissue are to be taken from a single breast, an inverted T incision is opened on the chest. In this way, it becomes possible for the permission to occur to coincide with the lower fold of the chest.
What is Breast Lift Surgery?
Breast lift operation is an operation performed as a result of loss of elasticity of breast tissue, hormone imbalance, sudden weight loss, deformity, sagging due to pregnancy or breastfeeding. A vertical incision is opened from the chest head to the chest fold and a lift is performed from under the chest. For those with sagging and large breasts, reduction is performed together with weight loss and augmentation for breasts that have been emptied at birth.
