Performer and make-up artist Oksana Pikul-Jasaitienė decided on breast augmentation exactly ten years ago, in October 2009.
What did Oksana Pikul-Jasaitienė say about her breast augmentation?
In an article published by 15min in September 2019, the portal reported that she decided on breast augmentation exactly ten years earlier, in October 2009, and that she was still happy with the result. The operation itself went smoothly, she said, but the recovery was painful and took time.

WhatsAppHer advice to others was direct: “Everyone has to understand that this is quite a hard and painful operation. My healing period lasted quite a long time. Of course, everyone's pain threshold is different.” She added: “Any intervention in the body carries risk. You have to understand that you are taking a risk for the result.” And about the long term: “Everyone has to realise that everything is temporary. It is not the case that I had the operation once and have the result for life. Sometimes an operation has to be repeated.”
That interview is all we rely on here. She did not describe the implants or the technique in those quotes, so we do not guess at them. Where the text below explains how augmentation works, it describes the operation in general, not her treatment.
Why her honesty is useful
Pikul-Jasaitienė spoke neither as an advocate nor as a critic. She said the decision was right for her, and at the same time she urged women to prepare, weigh the pros and cons and accept that there is risk. She also said that she now thinks decisions through more carefully than she did in her twenties, and that she has regular check-ups with doctors every year.

These are exactly the points a surgeon covers at a first consultation: realistic expectations, the recovery period, the fact that implants are not a lifetime device, and follow-up after surgery. Nothing in this article judges anyone's appearance; the point is how the decision is made.

How breast augmentation is done today
Breast augmentation places an implant behind the breast tissue or the chest muscle to add volume and improve shape. It is done under general anaesthesia, usually takes 1.5–3 hours, and the patient normally spends one day in hospital. The implant is chosen together with the surgeon.
Filling
- Options
- Silicone or saline
- What it affects
- How the implant feels and behaves
Shape
- Options
- Round or anatomical
- What it affects
- Fullness of the upper part of the breast
Surface
- Options
- Smooth or textured
- What it affects
- How the implant sits in the tissue
Size and profile
- Options
- Chosen with the surgeon
- What it affects
- Volume and projection in proportion to the body
Implants usually last about 10–15 years before replacement, which is the same point she made: a future operation should be part of the plan from the start.
Who is a candidate and how to prepare
A good candidate is an adult in stable health who wants more volume or a better breast shape and has realistic expectations. After childbirth, surgeons recommend waiting at least 6–12 months after the birth and after breastfeeding has ended.
Before surgery the clinic asks for blood tests, a coagulation panel, infection tests, an ECG, a chest X-ray and a breast ultrasound. Aspirin-type drugs, steroids and hormonal drugs are stopped in agreement with the doctor; oral contraceptives are usually paused at least a month before. The surgeon also explains possible complications, including hematoma, seroma, infection, changes in nipple sensitivity, capsular contracture, asymmetry, wound separation and tissue necrosis.
What recovery looks like
As Pikul-Jasaitienė said, pain thresholds differ. Most patients describe moderate discomfort for the first three days, much less by days 5–7 and none by weeks 2–3. Non-physical work is possible after 7–14 days and walks after one to two weeks. Fitness and swimming return after 4–6 weeks and strength training after three months. Compression garments are worn for 4–6 weeks.
Swelling settles in about a month, full recovery takes 3–6 months, and scars fade over 6–12 months. The timeline below shows the usual stages.
How recovery after breast augmentation usually goes
- Day of surgeryGeneral anaesthesia, 1.5–3 hours in theatre, then one day in hospital.
- Days 1–3Moderate discomfort, controlled with prescribed painkillers; compression garment on.
- Days 5–14Discomfort eases; non-physical work is usually possible after 7–14 days.
- Weeks 4–6Swelling has largely settled; fitness and swimming return; compression garment comes off.
- Month 3Strength training is allowed again.
- Months 3–12Full recovery at 3–6 months; scars fade and sensitivity usually returns within a year.
