Mammoplasty

Round implants fill the upper pole of the breast more, giving a more pronounced volume. Anatomical (teardrop-shaped) implants follow the breast's natural contour. The choice depends on your anatomy, initial shape, and preferences — the surgeon selects the optimal option at the consultation after an examination.

In most cases, yes: with a careful technique the ducts and glandular tissue are preserved, and implants are placed so as not to interfere with lactation. Nipple correction is also performed while preserving the ability to breastfeed. If you are planning a pregnancy, be sure to tell your surgeon — they will take this into account when choosing the technique.

The size is selected individually, taking into account the width and height of the chest, the condition of the skin and tissues, and your preferences. An implant that is too large for a narrow chest looks unnatural and increases strain on the tissues. The surgeon helps find a balance between the desired volume and anatomical possibilities.

The periareolar approach (around the areola) is minimally traumatic and recommended for women who have given birth. The inframammary approach (in the fold under the breast) is considered the safest, with the scar hidden by the fold. The transaxillary approach leaves no incisions on the breast itself, but requires a higher level of surgical skill and special equipment.

Incisions are placed in inconspicuous areas — around the areola, in the inframammary fold, or in the armpit. Over time, scars fade and become practically invisible. Proper suture care and following recommendations during healing help form a thin, neat scar.

Light activity is usually allowed after a few weeks, while intense training and loads on the chest muscles are permitted no earlier than 1.5–2 months, and only after checking with your doctor. Early exertion increases the risk of implant displacement and swelling, so a return to sport happens gradually.

Yes, a compression garment supports the breast, reduces swelling, and helps the tissues heal correctly. It is usually worn for several weeks; the exact duration depends on the type of operation and is specified in your individual recommendations. The garment is especially important in the first weeks after surgery.

In the first weeks it is recommended to sleep on your back, avoiding pressure on the breasts. Sleeping on your side or stomach will only be possible after your doctor's approval. Keeping the upper body elevated in the first days helps reduce swelling and discomfort.

In most cases, sensitivity is preserved. A temporary decrease or increase in sensitivity is possible due to swelling and tissue healing, but it usually returns within a few weeks or months. The risk depends on the type of operation and is discussed at the consultation.

Bio-implants are modern breast augmentation materials distinguished by their composition and shell properties. They are more expensive than standard round and anatomical implants due to their manufacturing technology. The surgeon assesses whether they are appropriate for your case individually at the consultation.

Yes, a lift combined with implant placement is a common solution for breast ptosis with insufficient volume. This allows both lifting the breast and adding volume in a single procedure. The feasibility and scope of such an operation are determined by the condition of the tissues and discussed at the examination.

Reduction mammoplasty removes excess glandular tissue, fat, and skin, creating a smaller, more lifted breast. The operation relieves back and neck strain caused by macromastia. Recovery takes several weeks, the hospital stay is usually 2–3 days, and the final result is visible after 2–3 months.

Gynecomastia is the enlargement of the male breast glands. Surgical treatment removes excess glandular and fatty tissue, restoring a masculine chest contour. The operation is usually well tolerated, and the scars are barely noticeable. The approach is chosen after an examination that rules out hormonal and other causes.

Mammography remains possible after implants are placed, but it is important to inform your doctor about the implants beforehand — sometimes additional imaging techniques or ultrasound are used. Regular breast examinations after breast surgery are just as necessary as without it.

Modern implants are designed for a long service life and do not require scheduled replacement. Replacement may be needed in case of complications or a desire to change volume. Regular check-ups help monitor the condition of the implants and breast tissue in time.

The operation is performed under anesthesia, so there is no pain during it. In the first days, a feeling of tightness, heaviness, and discomfort is possible, which is managed with prescribed medication. Unpleasant sensations gradually decrease during the first week of recovery.

Aesthetic breast operations are performed after the breast has finished developing — generally from age 18. For medical reasons (for example, marked asymmetry or gynecomastia), individual decisions are possible. There is no upper age limit — what matters is the patient's overall health.

Yes, correcting asymmetry is one of the common goals of breast surgery. Depending on the cause, implants of different volumes, a lift, or reduction of one breast may be used. The surgeon draws up an individual plan to achieve maximum symmetry of shape and size.
