FAQ
Is breast augmentation painful?
Breast augmentation surgery is performed under general anesthesia or IV sedation. That ensures you won't feel any pain during the procedure.

How long do the results of breast augmentation last?
The longevity of breast augmentation results depends on its type. Implants typically last 10-15 years. Even if you don’t notice a significant change in your breasts, the risk of implant rupture increases after 10 years. So, it is recommended to have an implant replacement once in 10 years.

How long should I wear a surgical bra after breast augmentation?
