It's no secret that I too underwent breast augmentation surgery back then, but if I could start over, I wouldn't go under the knife today.

What did Sarka Kata say about her breast augmentation?

Talking to Femina about judging the Miss World Hungary pageant alongside her teenage daughter Noémi, Sarka Kata turned to her own experience with cosmetic surgery. She said: „Nem titok, hogy annak idején én is átestem mellplasztikán, de ha újrakezdhetném, ma már nem feknék kés alá.” (“It's no secret that I too underwent breast augmentation surgery back then, but if I could start over, I wouldn't go under the knife today.”)

Why her honesty matters

What stands out in her comment is not regret about a particular result, but a change of mind that came with time. She frames it as something she would decide differently today — not because the operation itself failed her, but because her sense of what matters shifted. That is a common and valid reason to reconsider a cosmetic decision years later, and it says nothing about how anyone looks today.

How breast augmentation is done today

Breast augmentation places an implant behind the breast tissue or the chest muscle to add volume and shape. It is performed under general anaesthesia, and the patient normally spends one day in hospital afterwards. The implant itself is chosen together with the surgeon, based on the width of the chest, the condition of the skin and the result the patient wants.

Who is a candidate, and how to prepare

A good candidate is an adult in stable health who wants more volume or a different breast shape and has realistic expectations about the result. Anyone planning a pregnancy is advised to think about timing: surgeons recommend waiting at least 6–12 months after giving birth and after breastfeeding has ended.

What recovery looks like

Return to non-physical work is usually possible after 7–14 days. By about three weeks, post-operative swelling fades and scars begin to form, and heavy lifting or raising the arms above shoulder level is still avoided. By one month, the breasts generally take on a more natural shape and softness.

What recovery looks like

How recovery after breast augmentation usually goes

  1. 7–14 daysReturn to work without physical exertion.
  2. 3 weeksPost-op swelling fades and scars form; no lifting over 3 kg or raising arms above shoulder level.
  3. 1 monthSwelling subsides further and the breasts take on a natural shape and softness.
  4. 4–6 weeksFitness, swimming, pool and sea become possible again; compression garments come off.
  5. 3 monthsStrength training returns as the pocket around the implant settles.
