Breast Enlargement.

Welcome to the Department of Plastic Surgery of the healthcare facility Lékařský dům Praha 7.

Breast Augmentation

Breast augmentation (implantation) has become one of the most sought-after plastic surgeries in Europe in recent years.

Simply put, it is the insertion of an implant into the bust. Augmentation is performed in cases where the client is dissatisfied with her chest and with the help of plastic surgery she wants to enlarge and fill her breasts.

The surgery is performed under general anaesthesia, takes about 60 to 80 minutes and requires 24 hours of hospitalization.

Surgical convalescence takes about 2 weeks, the patient can fully work 1 month after the operation.

After surgery it is necessary to rest in bed for at least five days and to wear special compression underwear for at least 1 month, which keeps the implant in the correct position and thus reduces the risk of capsule formation, which is one of the most common complications associated with breast augmentation.

After surgery it is recommended to visit a breast clinic and have your breasts examined once a year.

CONSULTATION

The operation itself is preceded by a consultation, where the plastic surgeon explains the entire procedure and listens to your ideas and requirements for breast augmentation.

He then suggests the best possible variant of implants, which are the most suitable in terms of anatomy, but also in such a way as to suit your ideas in terms of size and shape.

OUR IMPLANTS

We use only implants from renowned manufacturers such as:

  • Natrelle – formerly MacGhan (USA)
  • Polytech (Germany)
  • Mentor (USA)
  • Nagor (United Kingdom)

WAYS OF INSERITNG IMPLANTS

1.
By incision on the border of the areola in its lower part, when the resulting scar is placed on the colored interface of the two skin types and thus becomes very inconspicuous

2.
By incision in the inframammary fold (under the breast), which is usually about 4 – 6 cm long, where the scar is small but noticeable

3.
By incision in the armpit- the procedure is more demanding and painful, but the scar after the operation is almost invisible

THE SHAPES

There are two types – round and anatomical (drop-shaped)

The anatomical ones copy the natural shape of the breast and are more suitable for women who want the most natural breast shape.

The most common implant filling is silicone gel. The volume of implants varies according to the patient’s wishes. It is most often around 250 – 400ml.

Additional Information

Not only are there different ways of inserting implants, another distinction is whether the implant is inserted under or above the large pectoral muscle.

Insertion under the muscle is more suitable for patients who are very slim or thin and have very small breasts. The implant nicely shapes the upper part of the breast.

On the contrary, in patients with larger breasts, inserting the implant above the large pectoral muscle better fills the breasts and the patient thus obtains the desired shape and volume.

Frequently Asked Questions

You have questions? We have answers.

Are breast implants safe?

Implants used for breast augmentation have been tried and tested for many years and no increased risk of cancer or any other disease associated with their use has been proven.

How long will breasts hold shape after augmentation?

Unless you go through a significant change in weight or hormonal changes, the shape of the breasts will stay the same for many years, unless unreasonably large implants are used (there is a risk of slight sagging).

Implant manufacturers recommend replacing implants about 10 years after the surgery, but if the sonogram or mammogram is OK, there is no need.

How often after breast augmentation would I have to see a doctor?

Checks after breast augmentation (breast augmentation with implants) should be performed once a year, even if you have no problems. We also recommend that clients undergo a sonogram examination once a year, which can reveal even the slightest deviations from the normal condition of the implants.

How does breast augmentation affect potential pregnancy?

As pregnancy has an effect on the shape of the breasts due to hormonal changes, the results of the operation may be devalued. So, if you are considering pregnancy in the near future, it is recommended to wait for the operation until after the children.

Which plastic surgeries are covered by health insurance?

Ear correction for children younger up to 10 years of age.
