Breast augmentation
Many women choose breast augmentation to enhance their appearance and embrace their femininity. At DaVINCI Clinic, our aesthetic surgeons offer two methods for breast enhancement:
Breast Augmentation with Implants: This is a permanent solution that increases breast volume by placing implants. The implants provide a natural appearance and shape.
Breast Augmentation with Fat (Lipofilling): This method uses the patient’s own fat, making it an ideal choice for those who prefer not to have prosthetics. However, this is a temporary result since 50% of the injected fat is absorbed within one month, with the remaining fat staying permanently in the treated area. For long-lasting results, many patients opt for breast implants.
Women considering breast augmentation must be at least 18 years old. They should discuss their expectations with the surgeon and follow pre- and post-operative guidelines to ensure the success of the procedure.
At DaVINCI Clinic, we use safe implants from well-known brands such as Mentor and B-Lite. In fact, our surgeons employ the Dual Plane technique, placing the implants below the pectoral muscle for optimal results.
The implants come with a lifetime warranty, so they do not need to be replaced after a certain period. Our experienced doctors ensure safe, effective results. The surgery typically lasts 60-90 minutes and is performed under general anesthesia.
Breast augmentation does not interfere with breastfeeding or medical exams like mammograms or ultrasounds. It can also be combined with liposuction for enhanced body contouring.
Preliminary consultation
- On the day of your consultation with the surgeon, you must inform them of any allergies to medications and disclose if you are taking any medication for health reasons that may affect the surgery.
- A few days before the operation, you will undergo pre-operative tests that will help the medical staff assess your health condition.
- At least two weeks before the surgery, you must stop taking any medications containing Acetylsalicylic Acid (such as Aspirin, Vivin C, Cardiospirin, etc.) and stop using oral anticoagulants. If you need to discontinue any therapy due to surgery, consult with the doctor who prescribed it.
- You must stop smoking at least two weeks before the intervention.
- Take a shower, remove gel or nail polish products the day before the operation, and avoid eating or drinking at least eight hours before the procedure.
- On the day of surgery, wear comfortable clothes with buttons or zippers for easy access and comfort.
After the operation
After breast augmentation surgery, patients are required to stay overnight in the hospital under the care of medical staff. Three days after the operation, a follow-up visit to DaVINCI Clinic is needed for wound treatment. In the first few days post-surgery, patients may experience tightness and pain in the chest area due to the positioning of the implants under the pectoral muscle. Most patients leave the hospital with empty stomachs, and 2-3 days after surgery, the clinic’s medical staff will remove the chest drains.
Around the one-month mark, the immune system begins to form a capsule around the implants, which helps the body adjust to the prostheses, making them feel more natural. At this stage, patients can gradually return to normal activities. During the recovery period, it’s essential to follow prescribed guidelines to keep the chest immobile. In conclusion, we recommend avoiding heavy physical activities for the first 3-4 days after surgery.
