BREAST ENLARGEMENT / PROSTHESIS CHANGE

  • DAY ADMISSION

  • FULL ANAESTHETIC

  • RECOVERY TIME 3-6 WEEKS

Breast augmentation or breast augmentation uses an implant with or without fat (Hybrid breast augmentation) to increase volume. Breast augmentation is ideal if breast tissue is naturally low or after pregnancy/weight loss where breast tissue has decreased. Dissatisfaction with breast volume often leads to women's insecure self-image. One does not find appropriate clothing, feels less feminine.

Full anesthesia
When determining the shape of the implant, you can choose between an anatomical (drop shape) implant or a round implant. Which type of implant is most appropriate depends on your lifestyle, physical characteristics and your expectations. This will be discussed in detail during the consultation.
Self-examination of the breasts remains possible with an implant. If a mammography is planned, the radiologist should be informed. If a mammogram is not possible, an MRI scan is recommended.
