Are There Non-Surgical Breast Augmentation Options?

Blog

Going under the knife understandably makes some people nervous. While a trained and respectable breast augmentation cosmetic surgeon can achieve the results you like without major risk to your health, if you're not interested in going under the knife, there are still options available to you. Here's a look at three of the most common non-surgical breast augmentation options out there.

Lifting

One problem that many women experience as they grow older is that their breasts start to sag. This usually happens due to a combination of the mammary glands shrinking, sudden weight loss, or just due to aging.

While the size of the mammary glands can't easily be altered without hormone treatments, there are other options to restore the lift and fullness of your breasts. Laser and Aptos threading treatments are particularly popular for this reason.

Laser treatments cause the body to remove old cells and restores some of its ability to create collagen, which can help to restore the skin's elasticity and firmness. Aptos threading is similar to certain types of facelifts, as a thin wire is inserted under the skin and used to pull the breasts up higher on the chest.

Increasing Size

For some women, changing the size of the breasts is desired, but going under the knife isn't. In this case, there is still an option for you.

Increasing the size of the breasts can be performed with the help of liposuction. A surgeon takes unwanted, excess fat cells from elsewhere on your body, like your belly or hips. This fat is then injected into the breasts, helping to fill them out. While the results aren't as permanent as breast implants, it's a procedure that can be repeated as needed and comes with the added benefit of contouring other parts of your body by removing the fat.

Smoothing

Finally, smoothing the skin on your breasts is a possibility via botox. Botox prevents the muscles it comes into contact with from contracting, which can cause the skin on your breasts to appear smoother and more snug. Botox is also sometimes used to help prevent slouching movement in the shoulders, which helps the chest to stand out and up more effectively, even when you're not consciously aware of your posture.

If you're not happy with the way that your chest looks, you don't have to simply put up with it or go under the knife to get help. Talk to a cosmetic specialist about non-surgical breast augmentation to find out what options are best for you.

Turning Back the Clock

After my thirtieth birthday, I began to notice some unappealing signs of aging on my face. I started to see dark spots and fine lines. Because I wanted to turn back time, I researched non-invasive cosmetic procedures to help people look younger. I was immediately intrigued by microdermabrasion. I began getting microdermabrasion treatments regularly. After each treatment, my skin instantly looked smoother and more vibrant. Within a few weeks, the fine lines under my eyes and around my mouth became less noticeable. On this blog, I hope you will discover the most popular types of cosmetic treatments performed on patients today. Enjoy!
