    Operation

    The surgery should be performed in a hospital and is usually performed under general anesthesia. The prosthesis is placed behind an incision in the breast tissue surrounding the nipple. It can also be placed with an incision under the breast or armpit. The area of prosthesis can be prepared in front or behind the chest muscle. A little dressing is made after surgery and bra is worn. It is possible to return home the same day. You can return to work within two or three days, participate in all sports activities within three weeks.
