For the last fifty years, breast augmentation operations are among the most performed plastic surgery interventions. Breast augmentation, called “augmentation mammoplasty” in the technical jargon, is the surgical intervention performed with the aim of augmenting the size and modifying the shape of a woman’s breast. In this method, the cup size is increased by placing the breast implant under the breast tissue. However, the purpose of breast augmentation operations is not the augmentation of the breast only; a proper contouring is also aimed.
