What’s important when determining breast implants? Size? Preference? / IN KOREA

Hello, we’re Dr. Hyeok and Director Son from Flexible Doctors. I heard that patients most frequently ask questions about determining the size of breast implants before having breast augmentation, right? about determining the size of breast implants before having breast augmentation, right? What would be the main question? It's about size.

Like, “Which size is best for me?” There is so much information nowadays, and we need to provide a variety of evidence. So, depending on the reason or the patient’s style, the cc can best be explained in detail. Ah, I see.

Then, are there any important issues when determining which implant to use? Of course. One very important thing is the patient’s style. More important than that is the patient's own body shape. If you ignore such things and forcefully insert the implant,

various problems can arise. The most important thing to consider is the width of the breast. It’s actually determined by the size of the rib cage. In the case of Korean women, the average size is 11 cm.

If the breast width is 11 cm, the implant should be less than 11 cm. If you break this rule, the implant will dent inside. Therefore, the first rule is to fit the width of the patient’s breast. What is the problem with using a larger size?

Well, implants also have different specifications. For example, let's say that the average width is 11 cm. The implant that goes inside that width would be 250cc. If you blindly use an implant that is too large, various problems will arise. The biggest problem is obvious - as the impla nt grows,

sensory problems and various problems with rippling will follow. Hmm, I see. When using large implants, it may look unnatural, but various problems can also occur, right? It’s best to consult with the doctor actually doing the operation to

make sure everything is accurate and come to a decision after listening to a detailed explanation of any problems that may follow. Thank you for the good information, doctor. Today, we learned more information about the size of breast implants. Thank you.
