Breast augmentation
Breast augmentation is a surgical procedure to enlarge and shape a woman's breasts. It can be done through different methods such as augmentation with implants, with own fat or a hybrid solution where implants and own fat are used. The most commonly used method is to place implants under the mammary gland or pectoral muscle.
Breasts change throughout a woman's life, which means that there are different reasons why they want breast augmentation. Many experience changes related to breastfeeding, pregnancy, aging, weight gain and weight loss. These changes affect the appearance of the breasts.
Our treatments
Breast augmentation with implants
Breast augmentation with implants is the most common way to increase breast volume. The implants we use are from Mentor, an American company that is FDA-approved. This approval places high demands on quality and safety. With over 50 years of experience in manufacturing implants, Mentor implants are a reliable supplier of implants. There are two types of implants: Round and drop-shaped silicone. We will determine which type suits you best through consultation.
Breast augmentation with own fat and figure shaping
Breast augmentation with autologous fat is a well-established clinical method that has been used for several years. Although small fat injections into the breast for minor breast irregularities have been performed in the past, it is only relatively recently that the use of autologous fat to recreate a completely new breast has begun. The fat tissue around the breasts is prepared with small tunnels under the mammary gland, or alternatively in the pectoral muscle where the fat is layered without pressure. Before the fat is extracted from the patient and processed, it is injected with a special cannula into the breast area.
Hybrid breast augmentation with implant and fat
Hybrid breast augmentation is a breast augmentation method where an implant and your own fat are combined to shape the breasts. This method is a growing trend as it gives the breasts a more natural feel. The result is often more natural, which is an important factor for many. The procedure itself involves placing the implant under the mammary gland or pectoral muscle. Or the implant is placed under the skin of the pectoral muscle. This is then combined with injections of the patient's own fat to give the breasts a more natural appearance.
