[Star Daily News = Reporter Gyu-jun Hwang] Since breast augmentation involves inserting an implant into the body, many factors must be carefully considered before choosing surgery. It is a method sought by many people because the types and sizes of implants are very diverse and offer a wide range of choices, and because volume can be maintained semi-permanently. However, as the rate of breast surgery rises, cases of side effects are also increasing, so caution is needed.

Among the various plastic surgeries, breast augmentation is a more complex procedure than others, so safety is far more important than the cost of the surgery. Since risks such as capsular contracture, implant rupture, and secondary infection exist, the facilities and size of the clinic, surgical equipment, and clinical experience of the specialist must be carefully assessed.



Satisfactory results can only be achieved by choosing an implant with safety as well as post-surgical naturalness and feel in mind, and by performing the surgery with the appropriate method. Since there are now many implants that highlight natural feel as their advantage, such as BellaGel, micro-textured types, and Motiva, it is important to consult thoroughly with a breast surgery specialist before surgery and choose the implant suited to your body type and proportions.

Dr. Dong-yeon Hwang of NANA Plastic Surgery advised, "Voluminous breasts that harmonize with the body's proportions can boost women's confidence and bring positive feedback on their changed appearance. However, since side effects such as capsular contracture can occur with improper surgery, it is important to decide carefully after thorough consultation with an experienced breast surgery specialist who has extensive experience in breast surgery."

It is also important to check the equipment held by the clinic performing the breast augmentation. Important checkpoints include whether the surgery is performed using Full HD endoscopic equipment, whether an anesthesiologist is on site, and whether safety facilities such as an uninterruptible power system are properly in place in case of an emergency.
