Breasts are considered one of the main attributes of women's beauty. They can vary greatly among women and change over the years due to pregnancies, weight changes, and other life events. As a paired organ, asymmetries are common. If you are not satisfied with differences in shape or size, or if your breasts have changed and you would like to enhance them, we can help.
Breast augmentation, or augmentation mammoplasty, can be performed by placing silicone implants of different shapes and properties, or by using your own fat with lipotransfer (Lipocellular Regeneration).
This surgical procedure is designed to improve breast size and shape by placing implants. It is personalized and can be adapted to each woman's individual needs and goals.
Implant breast augmentation is an outpatient procedure with fast recovery, enabling you to resume activities such as dining out or shopping the same day of your surgery.
When tissue quality is not optimal and the breasts exhibit stretch marks and laxity, GalaFLEX™ mesh provides support and improves breast tissue. GalaFLEX™ mesh is composed of hydroxybutyrate, an organic compound absorbed after approximately 14 months, leaving behind connective tissue that is 3–4 times stronger than native breast tissue. It acts as an internal bra that supports the implant and helps maintain its position longer.
Fat is harvested from the patient and subsequently injected into the breasts to increase volume or correct irregularities. This procedure is called breast augmentation with Cellular Regeneration.
Fat is the tissue with the highest concentration of stem cells in the body, which enhances breast tissue quality. Because it is the patient’s own tissue, there is no rejection. Another advantage is that the procedure can be performed multiple times until the desired size is achieved.
There is also the possibility of minimally invasive breast augmentation with no scars on the breast for selected candidates. The implants are placed through the axilla using high-definition endoscopy. Inquire about this procedure during consultation.
In some cases, the best option is to combine techniques, including implants and lipotransfer (Lipocellular Regeneration). This allows correction of asymmetries and provides better implant coverage, among other benefits.
The characteristics of each implant are selected to benefit the patient maximally. An expert preoperative evaluation is required to choose the ideal implant for each candidate.
Silicone-covered implants are filled with saline (sterile salt water) to the desired volume. These can deflate over time and are not recommended.
Filled with silicone gel that mimics the natural texture of breast tissue. Known to provide a more natural look and feel. They are of higher quality than saline implants.
Within silicone implants, there are two shapes: round and anatomical (teardrop). Surface options include smooth, textured, and polyurethane surfaces, and gels vary in cohesivity (viscosity).
