Ocean Clinic Answer Top 7 questions about Implants Breast Augmentation Mammoplasty

14-10-2020

Which breast implant shapes are available?

Breast augmentation is one of our most popular procedures at Ocean Clinic Marbella and Madrid. This is because of the dramatic and positive effect it has on female patient’s appearances and self-esteem. Aside from simply increasing their size, breast surgery can also be used to decrease volume, reshape or balance un-proportioned breasts, making them more symmetrical. With countless breast enlargement procedures performed by Ocean Cleanic Surgeons, they are extremely well placed to assist you on your journey!

1. Which breast implant brand is right for me?

Your preferences and anatomic proportions are key in finding the implant brand best suited to you. All the brands we use are of the highest quality, certified, approved and in their latest generation. They all provide you with a life-long guarantee for the implant and, in some cases, even reimbursement for re-operation in case of late-onset complications. In our opinion, the chief advantages of each brand are:

Motiva: Novel, the possibility of an ergonomic form, extremely low risk of capsular fibrosis in

6 years of the survey, natural and pleasant touch. ➯ Motiva Novel

B-lite: Offering you a desired size and shape with approx. 30% less weight to carry,
thus decelerating the sagging and ageing process, aiding the fight against gravity. ➯ B-lite Lightweight Breast Implants
Nagor: Very good value for money, highest possible projection (i.e. breast forward
distance from the chest wall) amongst all anatomic shape implants. ➯ Nagor

2. What are the breast implants made of?

All our implants are made of silicon. We do not use anything else. The silicon molecules are three-dimensionally linked, which guarantees that the silicon cohesive gel cannot exit the silicon shell – and this even in the extremely unlikely case of an implant rupture. The silicon shell ranges from no texture (smooth) to various amounts of texture (feels like very fine sandpaper), depending upon brand and model. In case of B-lite implants, the standard silicon gel features additional microsphere enhancement, resulting in its lightness.

3. Which breast implant shapes are available?

Round: Form of a compressed sphere, offering some more fullness to the upper part of
the breast (upper pole).
Anatomic: Form of a teardrop, which does not change if you hold it upside down.
Ergonomic: Round when you are lying down and anatomic when you are standing up,
just like a natural breast.

For every shape, there are four degrees of projection (breast forward distance from the chest wall) available – from low to extra high. Please do not be misguided by the misbelief that anatomic implants produce natural results whereas round implants should create a prominent décolleté. The ultimate shape of your augmented breast results not only from the shape and the positioning of the implant, but also from the shape, position and amount of your natural breast tissue, your skin laxity and your pectoral muscle thickness. Therefore, natural and less natural looks can be achieved by both anatomic and round implants. In order to obtain your desired final appearance, a competent examination and a surgeon’s advice is essential.

Ocean Clinics has more thena 10 years experience in breast augmentation and performed over 1000 breast augmentations.

4. Where is the scar after breast augmentation with implants?

Depending on model and size of the implant, incisions are 3 to 4.5cm long and their placement varies according to your preference.

Inframammary fold: In the breast’s fold itself, only slightly visible scars.
Periareolar: Placed within the pigmented areola, barely visible.
Trans-axillary: Performed in the armpit, no bothersome scars, visible only if lying with elevated arms behind you head (e.g. whilst sunbathing).

The Ocean Clinic’s preference is access via the inframammary fold unless the breast enhancement is combined with a simultaneous breast lift. Access via the inframammary fold shows the lowest incidence of capsular fibrosis over the course of time.

Are you considering breast implants but wondering about scarring? A beautiful enhancement with minimal scaring, only 3cm long!

5. Where is the breast implant placed?

Subglandular: Above the big pectoral muscle, underneath the breast tissue (glandula).
Submuscular: Underneath the big pectoral muscle and its connective tissue.
Dual plane: The upper pole of the implant is covered by the major pectoral muscle, whereas the lower pole lies predominantly sub-glandular. The muscle is divided along its anatomical direction of fibres, avoiding any functional deficits.

The most important criterion in deciding the position of the implant is the thickness of the skin covering the upper pole and the amount of underlying fat tissue. The assessment is called the pinch test and is always carried out by our surgeon.

6. Do i have to change my breast implants?

If you do not have any problems and are still satisfied with the appearance, there is no reason why you should change your implants. The belief that there is a standardised necessary implants exchange every 10 years grew from a much higher incidence rate of capsular fibrosis in the past. With the latest-generation implants we use, these numbers diminish to very low levels. All our implants have a life-long guarantee. In case you have any symptoms or uncertainties, come and see us.

7. Alternatives to breast augmentation with implants

Fat grafting is a recommended alternative technique in case you have enough fat reserves. Multiple sessions are often necessary, as the body absorbs a certain amount of transplanted fat. It is above all a good option if you wish to enhance your breasts by one or two cup sizes or as a complementing procedure. Autologous breast lifting is possible if you have sagging breasts with a prominent lower pole. Notice that your breasts will not become bigger, but implant effect can be created as your breast tissue is repositioned in order to tighten and lift the breast. The method requires the patient to accept more scars.
