My surgery process (breast aesthetics)
What did Başak Çakmak say about her surgery?
On her own YouTube channel, on 2025-05-11, Başak Çakmak posted a vlog titled, in her own words: “AMELİYAT SÜRECİM (meme estetiği)” (“My surgery process (breast aesthetics)”). Watch the video on her channel. The video itself carries no written description — the title is the only statement she attached to it, and it documents her own surgery process for her subscribers.

WhatsAppThat title is the entire basis of this article. She did not name a surgeon, a clinic, or any implant details, so this article does not guess at any of them. The sections below describe breast augmentation in general, not her personal procedure.
Why documenting the process matters
Choosing to title a video “my surgery process” and let viewers follow along, rather than present only a finished result, is a common way creators handle a visible personal change: it gives an audience a day-by-day account instead of leaving them to guess from before-and-after comparisons alone.

This article does not comment on her appearance at any stage; it uses her own title only as a starting point for a general explanation of the procedure.

How breast augmentation is done today
Breast augmentation increases breast volume and corrects shape, most often with implants placed in a single operation. At the consultation, the surgeon assesses the natural shape and proportions of the breasts, discusses the patient's goals, and helps choose an implant suited to her anatomy. The two main implant shapes are:
Round implant
- Shape
- Symmetrical round shape
- Typical result
- A fuller upper breast
Anatomical implant
- Shape
- Teardrop shape with a natural slope
- Typical result
- The most natural-looking contour
Surgery is performed under general anaesthesia with continuous monitoring, with incisions placed in hidden areas such as under the breast, around the areola or in the armpit.
Who is it for, and how do you prepare?
Breast augmentation is considered for naturally low volume, asymmetry between the breasts, or volume lost after pregnancy, breastfeeding or weight loss. In the one to two weeks before surgery, aspirin-containing drugs, steroids and other hormonal medication are stopped on the surgeon's guidance, and hormonal oral contraceptives are stopped at least a month ahead.
In the final one to two months before the operation, patients are generally advised to balance work and rest, sleep more, and avoid stress and strong emotions. Tests are taken about a week before the operation.
Recovery, step by step
After surgery the patient stays in the clinic's inpatient ward for one day under observation. The operation itself, under general anaesthesia, is painless; in the first one to three days afterwards, moderate discomfort is managed with painkillers and eases significantly by day 5–7 — broadly the stretch of time a day-by-day “surgery process” vlog like hers would cover.
Office work without physical exertion is possible after 7–14 days, with light walks allowed after one to two weeks. Swelling clears and scars begin forming within about three weeks, during which lifting over 3 kg and raising the arms above shoulder level are avoided. Within three months, inflammation in the tissue resolves and a stable pocket forms around the implant. Fitness, swimming, pool and sea become possible after 4–6 weeks, when compression garments also come off, and strength training resumes after three months. Scars fade until almost invisible over 6–12 months.
How recovery after breast augmentation usually goes
- Day of surgeryGeneral anaesthesia; one day in the clinic's inpatient ward under observation.
- Days 1–7Moderate discomfort managed with painkillers; pain decreases significantly by day 5–7.
- 7–14 daysReturn to office work without physical exertion; light walks after 1–2 weeks.
- 3 weeksSwelling clears, scars start forming; no lifting over 3 kg or raising arms above shoulder level.
