Breast Augmentation and Summer Fashion

Women who are considering breast augmentation surgery generally want their new shape to be ready for summer.

2011-04-27

NEW YORK, NY, April 27, 2011 (Press-News.org) Women who are considering breast augmentation surgery generally want their new shape to be ready for summer. Understandably, they look forward to taking full advantage of all the clothing and fashion they've been unable (or hesitant) to enjoy in the past.

In order to allow for plenty of healing time, breast augmentation candidates should plan to have their procedure completed in the winter or early spring months, such as February or March. With people's busy holiday schedules behind them, and colder weather keeping everyone indoors, these months are an ideal time to rest up and to recover from breast augmentation surgery.

Restoring Your Confidence With Breast Augmentation

Breast augmentation is not only sought out by individuals dissatisfied with their breast size. Other patients look to breast augmentation to help correct asymmetrical breasts, or to restore volume that was lost because of breastfeeding, childbirth, or weight loss.

Thanks to modern techniques and materials, breast augmentation has become safer and more accessible than ever, making it an ideal solution for women who have always felt the need to hide their figure due to asymmetry or insufficient size. Consulting with a skilled, board-certified breast surgeon can help you determine a treatment plan that will give you a naturalistic, evenly-proportioned look that you can take confidence in.

Breast Augmentation Recovery

One reason you want to allow for plenty of recovery time between your breast augmentation surgery and the summer fashion season is because you may be swollen for up to three or four months after surgery. While drinking water and engaging in light exercise can help reduce this swelling, you want to give your body the downtime it needs for proper healing to take place.

During recovery, it is important to keep your incision dry. Do not use lotions or creams on the incision, as they can cause inflammation. Complete the course of antibiotics your breast surgeon has prescribed to avoid infection.

Pain medication can help during this time, although it should not contain aspirin or ibuprofen until your surgeon says otherwise; early on, these medications can cause excessive bleeding.
If you had a breast lift combined with your breast augmentation surgery, this will lengthen your overall recovery time.

Your Final Results

For the first few days and weeks following your surgery, your breasts may be firmer than you're used to, sitting higher up on your chest. Over time, they will soften and drop into a more natural position. Don't worry if your breasts seem a bit "off" at first in either position or shape; they will normalize over the next few weeks and months.

If you are considering breast augmentation in NYC, please visit the website of board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. George Lefkovits for more information.

Caterpillars inspire new movements in soft robots

2011-04-27

Researchers have been examining the diverse behaviours of caterpillars to find solutions for the new generation of search and rescue soft robots. Despite their extreme flexibility and adaptability, current soft-bodied robots are often limited by their slow speed, leading the researchers to turn to terrestrial soft-bodied animals for inspiration. Some caterpillars have the extraordinary ability to rapidly curl themselves into a wheel and propel themselves away from predators. This highly dynamic process, called ballistic rolling, is one of the fastest wheeling behaviours ...
