Breast augmentation

The goal of this operation is to increase the size of your breasts, either because you were born with a small breast or because of pregnancies

The surgery is performed under general anesthetic or sedation , takes about 45 mns :the incision is  small (4cms) and located  either in the inframammary crease, or at the lower part of your areola or in the armpit.
The implant is positionned usually behind the muscle, sometimes in front.

They are made of  cohesive silicon gel  (sometimes, with a polyurethane coating)

They have either a round or a tear drop shape ;their surface is either round or textured

They exist in different volumes and projections (low,medium, high) so that there is always the right implant for your breast

All the stitches are disorbable.

You will have to wear a support bra for 3 weeks

This procedure can be performed as a  daycase or with an overnight stay

You can go back to work after 1-2 weeks and back to the gym after 4 weeks
