Expert Guide to Breast Augmentation (Boob Job) by Dr. Kantamneni Lakshmi

Breast augmentation, commonly known as a boob job, is a cosmetic procedure aimed at enhancing the size and shape of the breasts. This surgery involves placing implants under the breast tissue or chest muscles to create a fuller appearance. Breast augmentation surgery is typically performed under general anesthesia and takes about 1-2 hours. While the results can be long-lasting, there are potential risks such as infection, implant leakage, and changes in sensation. Recovery time varies but generally includes swelling and discomfort for a few weeks, with most patients returning to regular activities in 4-6 weeks.
