Boob jobs don’t have to look fake

We’ll look at this further below.
If you are thinking of enlarging your breasts, but are worried they won’t look real you’re not alone.
You are not the first to have this concern and you won’t be the last.
The reality is, breast implants have changed dramatically over the years, along with the knowledge and experience required. So ensuring your new boobs look realistic is very possible.Overall, there are two core points when it comes to looking more natural, these include:
1.Implant size
2.Current breast size

If a woman has naturally small boobs, then the larger they try and go, the more fake they will look.
For example, if the breast tissue is currently a B-cup and they try to go to an F-cup, then this will be more of a dramatic change and may look more fake.
However, if you try and go 1 or 2 sizes bigger than your natural boob size, it will look more natural.
During a consultation with a professional cosmetic surgeon, these are all points that are considered and will be discussed.
If you have an idea of what you want, your consultant will also be able to provide expert advice on what is more likely to suit you in looking more natural.

Other factors that affect how natural breast augmentation can look are:
-Implant placement
-Implant shape

The placement of an implant is important when it comes to looking more natural, but it all depends on your body size and shape as to where is best for you.
Slim people are more prone to breast implant visibility than those carrying a bit more weight.
They tend to have part of the implant placed under the chest muscle to give a smoother feel and look. If you have a bit more fat on your upper body, then the implant can be placed entirely behind the chest muscle. This technique also allows the implant to move freely and more natural inline with the boob movement.
The shape of implants are either round or teardrop. While it is often down to preference which you prefer when entering your consultant, your surgeon will be able to provide the pros and cons of each and outline which one will be more suited to you.
As well as size, you have to consider the fact that when you stand up gravity will play its part in making the breasts slope towards the floor. So don’t be put off by one shape of implant versus the other before you know the facts and reality of the situation.
Overall there are many factors to consider when opting for surgery to make breasts bigger, but more natural.

What to note:
Patients with less breast tissue will struggle to jump more than 2 sizes without looking more fake.
Patients with smaller boobs will experience more roundness and tightness after surgery.
In the following months after surgery, breasts will slope naturally.
Larger natural breasts will not look as high on the chest after breast augmentation.
Under / over the muscle implant placement can make a difference and will be discussed with your consultant. However, under muscle can look more natural.
Making sure the diameter of the implant matches the diameter of your natural boob is important in looking more natural.
Fat transfer from other body parts is possible to achieve a larger look and open up the possiblity of jumping up more sizes. For example B to E.
In some cases, saline implants wrinkle more than silicone ones, causing them to look more fake through the skin.

How to spot (bad) fake boob jobs and what to stay clear of if you want a more natural look:

1.No sloping. Implants that sit high on the chest and do not slope with gravity look more fake.
2.Round like a ball. Implants that are considered ‘too round’ can appear faker than shaped, teardrop or oval ones.
3.Close-together boobs. The closer together the implants are with minimal space between, the more unrealistic they can look.

10 things you probably didn’t know about boob jobs

1. People who choose to have their breasts enlarged often think that one procedure will last a lifetime.

However, around a quarter of women will require more surgery after about 10 years. This is because some implants experience changes as time progresses, such as leakage and shape warping due to scarring that occurs naturally in the body.
Other factors such as pregnancy and losing weight can affect the way your boob job looks. This often changes what some women think about how their body looks. And may opt for more surgery.

2. In 2018, the recovery time is much less than years ago.

Now-a-days, women who have their breasts enlarged do not need as much time off work.
Due to the nature of the procedure and advances in treatments, downtime is minimal.
Obviously each case is different depending on the procedure and body type, but a lot of women can return to work after one week and engage in light duties. However, it may take a bit longer to recover if the implant is placed behind the muscle as oppose to above the muscle.

3. Try before you buy. Women can now try before they buy when it comes to breast implants.

Products are available to feel and touch to help decide which type of implant is right for them. They can also use special bras to get a feel of how their new boobs might look and feel.

4. Breastfeeding is still possible. Women who have breast surgery can often still breastfeed.

Depending on the type of surgery they are having and where the incision is made. A specialist consultant can advise on the best place and what is right for you. Crease incisions and those under the arms make breastfeeding still possible. However, breastfeeding in the future could be affected for those needing incisions near the nipple.

5. Cosmetic surgeons all have different levels of knowledge, skill and experience.

It is important to thoroughly research the surgeon who will perform your breast enlargement procedure and ask for examples of their work. Reputable surgeons, like those at Manchester Private Hospital will always showcase their certifications and before/after photos of their patients.

6. Silicone implants are more popular in the North West, particularly in Manchester and surrounding areas.

However, saline implants are still widely used. There are pros and cons of each and you can discuss this during your consultation. It’s important to know the facts of each implant type and choose one that best suits your preferences.

7. Enlarged breasts feel like real breasts would on your chest in terms of weight.

Although their are weight differences between saline and silicone implants, either one will add weight to the upper body, just as you would feel if your breasts were naturally larger. This is an important consideration as it can affect posture and body shape.

8. Your breasts can still get larger naturally after breast enlargement and other procedures such as breast reduction.

Changes in circumstances can mean your breasts can still grow. Hormones, pregnancy and weight gain may result in larger breasts even if you have undergone enlargement surgery.

9. It is important not to rush back to exercise after breast surgery.

Of course, this depends on the type of surgery and how much bigger your boobs are, but there is always recovery time that requires you to behave differently than normal. Particularly if you are an active person who likes cardio exercise. Exercise should be limited for around 3-4 months post surgery.

10. Although you can decide how big you want your boobs and what type of procedure you want, your consultant will provide the best advice for your personal circumstances.

Whilst your ideas can be used as a guide, it is important to discuss in detail with your consultant what suits your body shape and type from a professional point of view.
