Objectives: Through the study carried out, we wanted to demonstrate the influence of breast augmentation on body image, self-esteem, emotional stability and the influence of all these factors on the psychosocial and sexual status of patients who opt for this type of intervention.
Introduction: The notoriety of breast augmentation in the aesthetic surgery of the twenty-first century has awakened our interest in investigating the preoperative characteristics, but also the psychosocial, sexual and motivational aspects that determine our patients to opt for this aesthetic intervention.
Materials / method: Preoperatively, we evaluated the postoperative expectations, the present patients' satisfaction with the appearance and volume of their breasts and the influence of these considerations on self-confidence and psychosocial and sexual status. Postoperatively, patients were evaluated at 3, 6 and 12 months to determine satisfaction with appearance, volume and consistency of their breasts, but also their self-confidence and self-attractiveness, emotional stability and the influence of all these factors in improving their quality of life, psychosocial and sexual status after breast augmentation.
Results: After breast augmentation, patients reported an increase in their sexuality, sexual desire and satisfaction, as well as an increase in their psychosocial well-being. Therefore, the quality of life of patients who opted for this type of intervention improved considerably postoperatively by improving their sex life, their body image as well as their physical and psychosocial well-being. At the same time, we noticed that there is no typical patient who opts for breast augmentation, as body image is important for all women and cannot be classified.
Conclusion: The postoperative result of a breast augmentation is not only morphological but also psychological, the patient finding herself more easily in the postoperative body image, and the study we are about to present to you has successfully demonstrated this fact.
