Natural Looking Boob Job: What Are Your Options?
For many women who are considering breast augmentation surgery, being left with boobs that look real is the most important factor. Fortunately, recent technologies and modern techniques within cosmetic surgery have made it easier for patients to undergo natural boob jobs, leading to more natural-looking breasts.
Breast Augmentation Options For Most Natural Looking Boobs
If you’re looking for a natural-looking boob job, it’s not quite as simple as going to your surgeon and asking for a natural boob job. In fact, there are a few options available to you, and our team will be happy to discuss these with you during an initial consultation. To help you decide which option is right for you, we’ve summarised each option for boob jobs that leave you with natural-looking breasts.
Saline Implants
In recent years, saline implants have been considered a popular option for patients looking for a natural-looking boob job. Saline breast implants are inserted into the body empty before being filled with sterile saltwater. The main benefit of choosing saline implants is that your operation should leave you with a smaller, less noticeable scar, which is often a key consideration for women who want to achieve a more natural look as a result of their boob job. Other benefits of having saline implants include:
– Surgery can be performed with a smaller incision, which is more likely to leave you with smaller scars.
– Saline implants have been approved by the FDA for women over the age of 18. Silicone implants, on the other hand, are only FDA-approved for patients aged 22 and above for breast augmentation surgeries.
– The amount of saline in each implant can be adjusted, which can help patients achieve a more symmetrical look.
– Some people consider saline implants safer due to the fact that they are filled with water, which the body can absorb.
Silicone implants
Silicone breast implants are the most common type of implants used for boob jobs today. Unlike saline implants, which are filled with saltwater, silicone implants are filled with silicone gel, offering a softer feel, which many patients believe offers a more natural looking boob job and a more authentic feel. Other benefits of silicone implants include:
– Silicone implants are more durable than saline implants and less likely to rupture.
– The gel inside means the implants are more stable, whereas saline implants can move over time due to the liquid inside.
– They are less likely to experience rippling, which makes silicone implants a more suitable option for patients with lower amounts of breast tissue.
Fat Grafting
More recently, fat grafting has become an option for those considering a boob job whilst also wanting to maintain natural looking breasts. A fat transfer sees fat transferred from one area of the body to the breasts. As a result, this option is often considered the most natural, as existing body fat is combined with existing breast tissue. Other benefits include:
– Smaller incisions mean minimal scarring, helping to reduce any visible signs of a breast augmentation.
– Added benefit of removing excess fat from other areas of the body, which is then transferred to the breast.
– More of a long-term solution, unlike breast implants, which need to be replaced after a certain period of time, which is usually around 10 years.
Breast Fat Grafting Case Studies
Which Option Is Right For Me?
Your surgeon may rule out certain options when discussing a natural looking boob job. For example, patients who do not have a large amount of excess fat may not be suitable for a fat grafting breast augmentation. Those who struggle with an unstable weight may also not have this option available to them.
Other considerations include whether or not you wish to breastfeed in the future, if you are happy to replace implants in the future and also the cost. If you’re unsure which option is right for you, we’ll run through the pros and cons of each technique during your consultation here at UK Aesthetic.
