Gangnam breast augmentation surgery,

What you should check before the implant

When speaking with people considering breast augmentation surgery,

one common thing comes up.

Which implant should I choose,

and what surgical method should I use?

No matter how much I look, there is so much information

that it only makes things more confusing.

With the number of choices increasing the more you search,

have you ever felt stuck without a clear “standard” to guide you?

We fully understand that frustration.

Breast augmentation surgery involves many decisions,

from the type of implant to the placement location

and the incision method.

And each of those choices

determines the quality of the final result.

That is why it is important not to simply choose a place with many reviews

or a low price, but to find a clinic that can properly design

a method suited to your body.

In this post, I would like to point out

two key things you must know before making a decision.

If you read to the end, I think it will become much clearer

how you should judge your options.

Choosing an implant,

The entire process is about designing what suits your body.

When looking into breast augmentation surgery, there is no shortage of information

about which implant is best.

But at Globi, during consultations,

this is what we tend to explain first.

You should look at the thickness and condition of your own tissue

before following a trendy implant.

A smooth-type implant surface feels natural,

but for people with thin glandular tissue,

the outline of the implant may later become visible.

On the other hand, a textured-type surface

moves less after insertion and tends to have a relatively lower risk

of capsular contracture, but its texture is not as soft as a smooth implant.

A teardrop implant has a shape that adds more volume

to the lower part of the breast, which makes it useful for enhancing curves.

At this point, you may feel even more unsure about what to choose,

but in fact, that is perfectly normal.

It is not about which option is good or bad;

the suitable choice itself changes depending on the individual’s condition and body type.

The same applies to the placement location.

For people with insufficient glandular tissue,

we do not believe it is right to insist only on submuscular placement.

In such cases, the dual plane method,

which places the upper part of the implant under the muscle

and the lower part under the fascia,

can create a more natural result.

In the end, implant selection and placement location

should not be decided separately;

they should be designed together based on the condition of your body.

The reason our clinic spends enough time on consultations

is because of this, and without going through that process,

even if the surgery is technically perfect,

the result may differ from what you wanted.

We are not saying you must come to us.

However, wherever you go,

we recommend checking first whether they take the time

to discuss a method suited to your body.

The result is determined by the procedure as much as by the implant.

The next important point is this.

It is how the implant is inserted.

Breast augmentation surgery involves a process of separating tissue

to create space for the implant.

Depending on how much blood vessels and surrounding tissue are damaged

during this process, recovery speed,

the degree of pain, and even the likelihood of capsular contracture,

in which the breast becomes hard, can all vary.

That is because the greater the damage,

the stronger the inflammatory response,

which increases the risk of capsular contracture,

a condition in which a hard capsule forms around the implant.

Even if the surgery goes well,

if this part is not properly managed,

it can sometimes lead to revision surgery,

which is why I pay special attention to it.

When talking with patients, I often meet people who say

that their recovery after breast augmentation surgery was unusually slow

and the pain lasted a long time.

There can be many reasons,

but in many cases, the tissue was damaged more than necessary

during the dissection process.

That is why, with the belief that delicate dissection during surgery

determines the postoperative course,

our clinic follows the principles and manages the process carefully.

At our clinic, we use HD endoscopy

to perform surgery while directly confirming the process with our eyes.

Because we dissect while seeing the inside accurately,

we can preserve microblood vessels and surrounding tissue more precisely,

and when inserting the implant, we use a sterilized disposable Keller Funnel

to prevent direct contact with the skin.

These may seem like small details,

but I believe these factors accumulate and create differences

in the recovery course.

Breast augmentation surgery involves many decisions,

from implant selection to placement location

and the surgical method.

I hope this post can serve as a small guide

for those who felt unsure about where to begin

before making a decision.

If you have any questions,

please feel free to contact us anytime.
