The ins and outs of breast surgery

In the case of breast augmentation surgery, small incisions are made in the armpits and implants are then inserted beneath the pectoral muscles. As the implants settle, they drop to a slightly lower position, creating a natural-looking fullness towards the bottom of the breasts.

For a mastopexy (breast lift) or breast reduction, the anchor or inverted-T technique is used, with incisions being made around the edge of the areola and along the crease underneath the breast to keep visible scarring to a minimum.

The different types of breast surgery

There are several types of cosmetic breast surgery, namely:

Augmentation mammoplasty: Generally performed on smaller breasts to add volume, redefine breast shape or to restore fullness lost after breastfeeding.
Reduction mammoplasty: Used to reduce overly large breasts that cause discomfort or pain or to modify breast shape.
Breast lift: Used to correct ptosis or sagging of the breasts due to menopause or weight loss.

There are other cosmetic procedures commonly associated with the mammoplasty that may be considered to enhance the bust. These include:

Breast lipofilling: Used to add or restore volume to the breasts with almost no visible scarring.
Mammopexy: Used to reposition the nipples or to correct invaginated (inverted) nipples.

What are the benefits of breast surgery?

Augmentation mammoplasty increases the size and volume of the breasts using implants and is one of the most popular procedures in aesthetic medicine today. Performed under general anaesthesia, the surgery is short and leaves virtually no visible trace, with scars most often concealed under the arms (in the armpits) or around the areolae.

The best innovations for the most beautiful results

Within the discipline of breast surgery, aesthetic medicine is constantly evolving in order to provide the best possible treatments to achieve a sublimely beautiful bust. The Department of Plastic Surgery at Clinic Lémanic consistently keeps up to date with new developments and leverages the latest technologies, which have been shown to significantly minimise postoperative side effects and complications.

At Clinic Lémanic, our goal is to give you gorgeously enhanced assets in just a few hours. The latest generation implants used by our surgeon are safe, flexible and – given that they cannot be easily seen or felt – incredibly discreet. You will be left with virtually no visible scarring and natural-looking results that you will be able to enjoy for many years to come.

Different treatment stages

Consultation

Procedure

Post treatment

Consultation

The first step in your breast transformation journey is a consultation with our plastic surgeon. During this initial pre-operative consultation, you will have the opportunity to express your specific concerns and expectations to the surgeon, who possesses the necessary know-how to determine which size and shape of implant will best suit your physique and allow you to achieve aesthetically balanced results. After having explained the procedure and its potential risks or complications, the surgeon will then conclude – with your input, of course – which implant is right for you.

Procedure

On the day of your breast surgery, you should arrive on an empty stomach as per the instructions you received during your initial consultation. You will need to be at the clinic at least 2 hours before the scheduled appointment to allow enough time for the admission process. One of our friendly nurses will welcome you and assist you with any necessary pre-operative preparations. Before anaesthesia is administered, the surgeon will use a surgical marker to indicate where the incisions will be made. Once this has been done, you will be able to relax, knowing that you are in capable hands. The surgery will then begin and will last approximately 2 hours.

Post-traitement

Several follow-up visits will be scheduled for after your mammoplasty. Sutures are generally removed within 2 weeks of surgery.

We recommend that you take at least one week’s sick leave after the procedure to allow your body sufficient time to rest and recuperate. We also recommend that you keep your arms close to your body and lift them as little as possible during this period. At the end of your sick leave, you should be able to drive without undue discomfort. A special support bra should be worn for the first few weeks following your mammoplasty.

When will I see the results?

You will see the results immediately. However, your breasts will continue to change shape and improve in appearance for at least another 6 months after surgery. Once recovery is complete and your breasts have settled into their final size and position, it will then be time to revamp your wardrobe with pieces that accentuate your femininity and allow you to appreciate your enhanced curves, which you will be doing for years to come.

Is breast surgery right for me?

You may want to consider breast surgery if:

You would like to improve the shape and position of your Mammoplasty can help correct ptosis (sagging) caused by ageing, breastfeeding or significant weight loss. With the inverted-T technique, for example, it is possible to get rid of unwanted excess skin and to restore a firmer, perkier and more aesthetically pleasing shape to breasts without the need for implants.
You would like more volume or fullness. Implants increase the size of your breasts and thereby help improve their overall shape. Breast augmentation is one of the most sought-after cosmetic surgery procedures in the world. It allows patients to achieve added volume and to improve their breast shape in a natural-looking way, especially when performed using latest generation implants. When following the transaxillary approach to breast augmentation (where the implants are inserted through incisions in the armpits), scars are skilfully concealed underneath the arms. Breasts remain completely scar-free and evidence of the procedure is limited to very short (4 cm at most), inconspicuous scars within the armpit crease. The first results are immediately visible after surgery, but it takes approximately 6 months for the final results to be revealed.
You would like to reduce the size of your breasts. A disproportionately large chest can quickly become a hindrance in your daily life. It can cause persistent discomfort and/or pain, prevent you from taking part or even excelling in certain sports and significantly limit your wardrobe options. Whatever your reasons for wanting a smaller bustline, breast reduction surgery can help sculpt your breasts into a sublime shape that fits your physique and your aesthetic goals.

Please note: Pregnant or breastfeeding patients and patients under the age of 18 are not eligible for breast surgery.
