Hybrid breast augmentation: How to solve the zero size problem

methods of breast augmentation with surgery

According to statistics, 24% of women in the world are not happy with the size of their bust, and 16% are willing to enlarge it with the help of a plastic surgeon. Among them, almost 30% have zero breast size, which is considered a difficult case in plastic surgeries. How realistic is this and what methods are used to enlarge zero size breasts?

In fact, the emergence of this method gave a chance to realize their dream of big breasts for those who could not be helped before. If the girl has her second or at least first breast size, you can stretch the skin and place an implant. For girls with zero breast size, many surgeons refused to perform the operation. Implant placement was impossible due to the non-aesthetic result - the breast would look like a ball covered in skin.

What is hybrid correction?

At first, liposuction appeared - a method of removing excess adipose tissue from problem areas: thighs, abdomen, waist. Further, doctors began conducting experiments that showed that fat takes root well and can be used as a donor material for various body shaping, in areas where extra volume is required.

Thus appeared lipofilling, which formed the basis of the hybrid technique. During hybrid correction, with the help of the patient’s previously obtained fat, a conditioned frame or “cushion” is created along the contour of the implant so that it does not feel like anything special to the touch. This avoids the infamous tensile ball effect. That is, the implant is "surrounded" by soft fat and looks very natural! After the edema disappears, when the true result can be assessed, the breast looks natural and remains soft to the touch.

Usually, specialists perform lipofilling immediately, along with breast augmentation, in an operation, which takes about 2-3 hours. But there are also cases when the implant is first installed directly, the reduction of edema is expected and the appearance of real contours of the new breast is expected. It lasts about a month, after which you can safely place the fat breast.

You should understand that size zero is a completely flat chest, on which only the nipples stand out.

Advantage of hybrid correction

If it is still possible to solve the problem with the lack of skin (the skin is stretched), you should keep in mind that the skin will stretch exactly to the size of the implant. And the implant itself will be clearly visible and visible to the touch. Filling breasts with fat adds a little volume and hides the implant under the fat layer for a more natural breast.

Who is this technique for?

First, it is recommended for women who do not have their own layer of fat in their breasts and some of the mammary glands responsible for breast volume - this is the infamous "zero" size. You should understand that size zero is an absolutely flat chest, in which only the nipples stand out (according to the type of baby's physique).

In the past, many surgeons refused to perform surgeries on girls with zero breast size.

If you simply place an implant with such a woman's physiological characteristics, then after the tissue edema is removed, the implant will become clearly visible, down to the contours. For example, it will be noticed in the anterior axillary region, and this is not only not aesthetically pleasing, but also causes physical discomfort to the patient himself. Imagine that you clearly feel a foreign body inside you, it bothers you, both physically and emotionally. However, with the classic augmentation method, nothing else can be done - there is no adipose tissue and the implant is covered only by the skin.

How is the operation going?

First, the surgeon removes fat from places on the body where it is usually abundant - these are fat deposits on the sides, abdomen, thighs, knees or hands. Next, the surgeon makes an incision in a specific area of ​​entry, which is negotiated with the patient separately. Entry is possible through the contour of the nipple, into the armpit or into the crease under the breast. Then there is a detachment of glandular tissue and chest muscles - this is done in order to form a conditional "pocket" where the implant is placed.

Next, the fat collected during liposuction undergoes separation - it is cleared of plasma and other blood derivatives. The cleaned mass is then injected through a special thin needle along the contour of the implant.

Such manipulation is usually sufficient to obtain a stable and long-lasting result. In very rare cases, the fat can be removed, in which case a second operation is prescribed.

The main advantage of this method is the beautiful aesthetic effect and the comfort of the patients afterwards. After hybrid correction, the breasts look very natural and are difficult to distinguish from natural to the touch.

Recovery period

From the moment of surgery, the first two weeks or so receive primary rehabilitation. At this time, the woman will not be able to work, so she will have to take medical leave. As for pain, they are present in the first two to three days after manipulation, but at the same time are easily eliminated with anesthetic medication. After three days, the patient can return home, subject to full compliance with the surgeon's recommendations.

Two weeks later, an examination and removal of the sutures is planned. At this time, in general, the woman gets used to new forms, the initial discomfort passes. You can start playing sports in a gentle way, eliminating the load on the shoulders and chest area. Do not lift heavy bins or make sudden movements.

Furthermore, during the first month, the patient must constantly wear special compression garments - it helps to adjust the correct, anatomical position of the new breast.

You will be able to admire the end result in about 5-6 months, when the hidden edema subsides and the tissue sensitivity is fully restored.
