With summer vacation here, many are busy preparing for water activities. At times like this, women are excited and worried at the same time. They are conscious not only of the bare face that will show once makeup washes off in the water, but also of the body line that a bikini can hardly hide.

Among these, small breasts are one worry that cannot be left out. No matter how slim the arms and legs are, if the breasts are small it is hard to complete an S-line figure, and since a bikini makes it difficult to hide whether there is breast volume, the confidence of a woman with flat breasts only shrinks.
It would be good if breast volume could be increased reliably through exercise and eating habits, just as excess flesh is removed through dieting, but the reality is that it is hard to achieve a satisfying size and shape. Breast augmentation is performed mainly for women with such concerns, but many also feel a heavy burden because of the general perception that it is painful and has a long recovery period.
One patient who visited the clinic for a consultation after agonizing over breast surgery said, "I tried putting volume-up pads inside my bikini, but the shape looked too artificial and I was on edge in case the pads shifted or floated up," and added, "At least at water parks you have to wear a life jacket, so I have often taken comfort in that."
According to Dr. Yoosuk Chung of TheLINE Plastic Surgery, recent breast augmentation is performed precisely on the basis of ultrasound diagnosis, so one-day pain-free surgery with less pain and a relatively short recovery period has also become possible. Ultrasound diagnosis before surgery can assess breast tissue and health status, and because only the necessary portion is finely dissected with precision on that basis, surgical pain and bleeding can be minimized.
Generally, the biggest reasons a breast surgery patient is admitted are wearing a drain to remove pooled blood when bleeding occurs after surgery, and post-operative pain. One-day pain-free breast augmentation, with little bleeding and pain, allows same-day discharge without admission.
In addition, ultrasound breast assessment makes it possible to minimize breast augmentation side effects and shorten the recovery period, and it also allows an accurate surgical plan to be established, such as determining the position of the implant to be inserted in teardrop breast augmentation using the teardrop-shaped implants preferred recently.
Dr. Yonghyun Cho of the clinic advised, "With ultrasound breast assessment you can not only establish a breast surgery plan that fits your body exactly, but also check your health status, including for breast cancer," adding, "If you want safer breast surgery with higher satisfaction, I recommend choosing a specialized breast augmentation center equipped with a state-of-the-art system on par with a university hospital."
