As we have entered an era that respects individuality, perceptions of plastic surgery are also changing.
More women are seeking breast augmentation to find confidence in themselves.
Not only those who are stressed because of small breasts, but also those who need breast correction due to various factors such as enlarged breasts or sagging breasts after childbirth are looking into breast augmentation.
Because breast augmentation is a procedure that is carried out with close consideration of individual characteristics, including implants, surgical equipment, anesthesia, and aftercare,
it is important to have 충분한 consultation with the medical team and choose a customized surgery that is suitable for you.

What types of implants are used in breast augmentation?
Implants vary depending on the individual, so it is advisable to check the characteristics of the implants
and decide after 충분한 consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon.

Motiva implants
When lying down, they spread naturally, and when standing, they change to a shape similar to real breasts,
and the feel is also natural enough to be close to that of real breasts.
- Silk surface that helps prevent capsular contracture
The surface of the implant is made with nano-sized particles, making it delicate and precise, and there is almost no capsular contracture caused by friction reactions
or genetic allergies caused by unnecessary foreign substances, so post-surgery massage is not needed.
- BlueSeal for maximum stability
BlueSeal lowers the possibility of capsular contracture that can occur when gel leaks outside the implant,
and allows careful assessment of the implant’s condition, such as cracks or rupture.

Mentor implants
- Natural feel and fullness
To achieve a natural feel and fullness, the sides are designed to be soft while the top is designed to be firmer.
The firmer top design helps maintain the implant’s volume.
- Various implant sizes and textures by body type
They are produced in a wide range of options to consider the body shapes of women around the world.
By adjusting the amount of silicone filler, they can be tailored to the chest circumference and size of various patients.
- Safety confirmed through FDA approval
Both the silicone inside the implant and the outer shell have received FDA (U.S. Food and Drug Administration) approval for safety.

How is surgery performed in breast augmentation?
There are also several surgical methods used in breast augmentation. The most commonly performed method is the dual-plane technique.
The conventional dual-plane technique is a surgical method in which the upper part of the implant is placed under the muscle and the lower part is placed under the fascia.
There is also the IPCD method. An important part of breast augmentation is performing the surgery so that the cleavage can form into a Y-line.
The IPCD surgical method is an approach that compensates for the shortcomings of the existing dual-plane method.
It maximally dissects the inner side of the breast and tightly dissects the lower outer side to prevent the implant from spreading outward,
making it a method that completes beautiful cleavage.
Why is the aftercare system important?

Aftercare is important for maintaining a soft feel after breast augmentation and managing scars at the incision site.
First, it is important to check whether a thorough breast examination is performed with ultrasound equipment to confirm the pre-surgery breast condition,
and whether systematic aftercare is provided consistently every week after surgery.
In addition, you should also pay attention to whether there is a variety of equipment for aftercare, such as equipment suitable for wound healing,
dedicated care equipment appropriate for scar management, and regenerative care equipment.
Why is the aftercare system important?

Is the surgical system safe?
Breast augmentation is a surgery in which implants are inserted into the body, and in many cases the procedure is performed under general anesthesia,
so it is necessary to check whether the surgical system is being carried out safely, such as whether advanced equipment is used
and whether a specialist in anesthesiology and pain medicine is present on site.

How should revision surgery for breast augmentation be performed?
In cases where revision surgery is performed due to capsular contracture, it is important to completely remove the capsule surrounding the implant.
In general, revision surgery is often performed through an inframammary incision.
In such cases, the scar may become more noticeable, so it is advisable to check whether the capsule can be completely removed using an endoscope through an axillary incision as well,
and whether capsular contracture can also be resolved.
