Breast augmentation: It is a breast cosmetic surgery through which the breasts are enlarged and reshaped using saline or silicone implants. In breast augmentation, some incisions are made either under the breast, along the areolar edge, or in the armpits. Then, the prostheses are placed under the breast tissue or chest muscle.  

Breast reconstruction: This surgery is often performed on patients who have lost one or two breasts due to mastectomy (a treatment for breast cancer), burn, or congenital problems such as Poland syndrome. In breast reconstruction surgery, the breast is recreated using an artificial implant or the patient’s tissues. Usually, the physicians use abdominal tissue, back muscle, or fat and muscle of the buttock to reconstruct the breast.
