NATURAL-LOOKING BREAST LIFT PROCEDURE 

1.What are the beautiful and attractive natural-looking breasts?

  • Size

In fact, Body height is the most important factor determining a standard bust measurement, however, size does not necessarily depend on height criteria.

  • Shape

It is obvious that breasts that meet the standard measurements, yet sagging, are also not considered as naturally curvy-looking breasts. 

What are saggy breasts? If the notch above the sternum forms an equilateral triangle with the two nipples, the breasts are naturally curvy-looking breasts.

  • Color

According to aesthetic perspective, attractive breasts are defined as  young-looking, fluffing and fully round in shape.The size of the areola should be moderate, small nipples located directly behind the fullest part of the breast mound.

In order for women to understand this issue better, we would like to introduce some of the post-surgery recovery stages that most breast lift cases need to go through:

  • In the first week: The breasts may be a little bit painful and tight.
  • In the second week: You’ll feel less pain, yet the tightness needs more time to settle.
  • After the first month: there is no more pain and swelling. However, the breasts still look “fake” and need more time to “settle” in, achieve a more natural curvy look. One of the requirements most doctors recommend is wearing a surgical bra during the recovery period following your surgery. 
  • After 2-3 months: your breasts will gradually become softer. At this point, you should consult your plastic surgeons and perform a gentle massage to soften your breasts
  • Last 3 – 6 months: There is no more tightness, your breasts become softer and achieve a more natural look.

– Plastic surgeon’s hard skills and breast lift techniques

Thoracic cavity dissection and breast implant insertion techniques play a vital role all over the procedure as this does affect not only the operation’s result but also the settling of the patient’s breasts.

Surgery accounted for about 30%, the remaining 30% depends on post-operative care. Therefore, you have to strictly follow recommendations from our plastic surgeons in order to achieve attractive, fluffy natural-looking breasts.

WHAT NEEDS TO DO WITH LONG-TERM BREAST TIGHTNESS?

1. Capsular contracture

Capsular contracture is a common complication with a high incidence, which usually occurs after 6-12 months after breast lift augmentation.

you may notice more obvious symptoms, including:

  • Sudden tightness and pain
  • Firmness breasts
  • asymmetry tissues
  • asymmetry breasts

2. Leaking filter material

This problem occurs mostly due to the fact that you have undergone plastic surgery in unauthorized facilities.

Currently, many facilities have used the method of injecting liquid silicone into the breasts to increase the bust size.

However, compared to using autologous fat or silicone gel breast implants, liquid silicone material is completely unsafe and can cause lumps and leaks.

Currently, most cosmetic hospitals strictly prohibit using liquid silicone grafting. In fact, Gangwhoo Cosmetic Hospital has received many cases of breast lift with leaks and lumps of filler material. These cases encountered severely damaged breasts with distortion and firmness in their breasts.
