Trend for Pamela Anderson-like breast implants is gone
by Zuzana Zelenakova


Whether you believe it or not breast implants have been used for over a century to augment the size or alter the shape of women´s breasts, to be more precise since 1895. currently there are two main types of breast implants: saline-filled implants and silicone-gel-filled implants. If some statistics should be done patients seeking this kind of body correction are usually younger, healthier, from higher social-economic class and often married with children. They are not satisfied with their appearance and even experienced some uncomfortable remarks about their appearance. The self-esteem with these women is not what is should be and even prevalence for depression is higher. That is as far as comparison to the general population is concerned. Desire for bigger breasts or simply for breast correction is part of bigger image these days. Today great emphasize is put on body, which as we think from should be flawless as we see it in ads or in movies, mostly those coming from Hollywood. We can say that women now are more sensible to the needs of their bodies and when they decide for a plastic surgery they want the result to fit in the whole frame. That is why breasts a la Pamela Anderson are no longer number one with plastic surgeons. Another important thing besides choosing the right size and type of implants corresponding to your body is choosing the right person to do it. “Patients must spend some time 'investigating' the doctor´s credentials and reputation in the industry. Visiting the doctor´s clinic a few times and talking to other patients in the waiting area is a good way to validate the doctor´s experience,” advises Dr. Marco Faria-Correa, a renowned Brazilian cosmetic surgeon working at the Gleneagles Hospital, Camden Medical Centre and East Shore Hospital in Singapore.
