There is a diverse range of causes related to physiological needs that directly affect both physical and mental health, as well as quality of life.
Before surgery: reasons for a breast operation
Breasts can change due to pregnancy, aging, or significant weight loss, and undergoing breast surgery can improve their appearance. Sometimes, breast implants are particularly indicated for correcting congenital malformations such as tuberous or tubular breasts, or pectoral anomalies such as Poland syndrome, with the aim of achieving symmetry and more aesthetically pleasing results.
