Breast Augmentation

Breast Augmentation is a surgical procedure designed to enhance the size and shape of the breasts using implants or fat transfer. This transformative procedure helps women achieve fuller breasts, restore volume lost after pregnancy or weight loss, improve breast symmetry, and create a more balanced body proportion.

At Neoderma Clinica, we offer both implant-based augmentation and fat transfer techniques. Implant options include saline-filled and silicone gel-filled varieties in various shapes, sizes, and textures to achieve your desired look. For those preferring a more natural approach, fat transfer breast augmentation uses liposuction to harvest fat from other areas of your body and inject it into your breasts.

Our experienced plastic surgeons work closely with each patient to determine the ideal implant type, size, and placement based on your body frame, existing breast tissue, and aesthetic goals. We use advanced surgical techniques to minimize scarring and optimize results, creating breasts that look and feel natural while enhancing your silhouette and self-confidence.

Frequently Asked Questions

Breast implants are not considered lifetime devices, but they don't automatically need replacement after a certain time period. Modern implants are designed to be durable and can last many years—often 10-20 years or longer. The decision to replace implants is typically based on changes in your aesthetic preferences or complications such as implant rupture, capsular contracture, or significant changes in breast appearance due to aging, pregnancy, or weight fluctuations. Regular follow-up appointments and periodic imaging (MRI or ultrasound) are recommended to monitor implant integrity.

Saline implants are filled with sterile salt water after placement in the breast pocket. If they rupture, the saline is safely absorbed by the body. They generally provide a firmer feel and may show more rippling, particularly in thin patients with minimal breast tissue. Silicone implants are pre-filled with cohesive silicone gel that closely mimics the feel of natural breast tissue. Modern silicone implants use a form-stable gel that maintains its shape even if the implant shell is broken. Silicone implants typically provide a more natural look and feel, especially in women with minimal existing breast tissue. During your consultation, we'll discuss which option best suits your anatomy and goals.

Most women can successfully breastfeed after breast augmentation, especially when the implants are placed under the chest muscle (submuscular placement) and incisions are made away from the areola. The periareolar incision approach (around the areola) carries a slightly higher risk of affecting milk ducts or nerves important for breastfeeding. If you're planning to have children after your augmentation, be sure to discuss this with your surgeon during your consultation. They can recommend surgical approaches that minimize potential impact on breastfeeding. It's also worth noting that some women are unable to breastfeed regardless of whether they've had breast surgery.

There are two main implant placement options: submuscular (under the chest muscle) and subglandular (over the muscle, but under the breast tissue). Submuscular placement provides more tissue coverage, which can create a more natural look and feel, especially in thin patients with minimal breast tissue. It also reduces the risk of capsular contracture and interferes less with mammography. Subglandular placement may be appropriate for women with adequate existing breast tissue and can provide more dramatic upper pole fullness. It typically involves a shorter recovery period with less discomfort. During your consultation, our surgeon will recommend the best placement option based on your anatomy, lifestyle, and aesthetic goals.
