Patients are to use a sports bra for a month following the operation.
For patients who are over 40, radiological examinations -mammography and if needed, ultrasonography scans- are performed before the surgery.
What kinds of prosthectics can be used?
There are 2 types of breast prosthetics: round and anatomical. Prosthetics can be put from the baseline of the breast, arm pit or nipples. Position, type and size of the prosthetics are determined regarding the desire of the patient, status of the breast, length, weight and the shape of the rib cage. Prosthetics are anti-allergic and they have no side effects. They do not prevent us from being pregnant or breast-feeding. Breasts with prosthetics do not cause any problems in mammography. Prosthetics can only be torn if a very serious traffic accident or stab wound occurs.
