Other women want to correct asymmetry or restore volume that has been lost after weight loss or pregnancy. Good candidates for breast augmentation are generally healthy, non-smokers who have a positive outlook and realistic expectations for the surgery.

This main difference is most noticeable when a woman lies down or stands up, as with a circular implant the fluid will stabilise and create a different appearance, while with tearing implants the condition is fixed and will not change.
There are three general places where breast implants can be placed: underneath the breast tissue and muscle (submuscular), underneath the breast tissue but over the muscle.
It is recommended that breast implants be changed every 10 to 20 years, depending on the type of implant. However, many women do not need to have their implants changed that often.
Patients with active cancer, autoimmune disease, and those who are pregnant or breastfeeding are not good candidates for breast augmentation. Also, patients who have had previous radiation therapy to the chest area are not good candidates.
