Before breast augmentation: What is the “ideal” breast anyway?
The answers are as different, as individual as a woman's reasons for having her breast enlarged. An "ideal" aesthetic breast is symmetrical, but whether you prefer it big or small, firm or soft, slightly sagging or "pushed up", opinions and preferences differ widely.
If there is hardly any breast tissue and you have a very flat breast that looks more “like a boy”, women often want more feminine shapes/breasts and a little more cleavage. Some women also have beautiful breasts, but would like to have them bigger. Many patients come to us for a consultation after pregnancy and want their “old”, naturally firm breasts. Others, on the other hand, opt for breast augmentation – be it with implants or autologous fat – or breast correction for age or aesthetic reasons. The question of the individually most beautiful breast is not a question of age - however, you should be of legal age and have completed your body growth. Then we can discuss individually what is most suitable for you.
Breast augmentation: why a plastic surgeon?
Almost any surgeon and specialist who reads the relevant literature is able to slide a silicone pad on or under the pectoral muscle - provided the breast is symmetrical and fits perfectly. Based on our many years of professional experience, such an optimal case tends to be the exception. As a rule, patients come to us because their breasts no longer fit so well after pregnancy, are a little asymmetrical or have assumed a tubular shape. In such cases, various surgical techniques and elements of breast surgery must be combined, which requires 6 years of specialist training in the field of plastic and aesthetic surgery and many years of professional experience.
Detailed knowledge of the exact muscle attachments, the course of the blood vessels and nerves, and the different types of tissue are urgently required for smooth healing. as dr medical and experienced Specialist in plastic surgery can Dr. Bodo will provide you with comprehensive information about the various breast surgery techniques and the risks of breast augmentation, give you an idea of the options and make appropriate recommendations. Breast augmentation is a surgical procedure and should not be taken lightly. For this reason, you should always opt for a specialist in plastic and aesthetic surgery for such an operation.

What implants are used for breast augmentation?
Breast augmentation changes the body – in different ways for each patient. It is therefore important to identify exactly which measure suits you best. For breast augmentation, in most cases we use high-quality branded implants with a manufacturer's guarantee made of cohesive silicone gel. In our experience, this is the “gold standard”. It feels the most natural, is very well tolerated and there are no known allergies.
We work with breast implants from Polytech, Allergan, Sebbin and Motiva, all of which meet the highest quality standards. If desired, (almost) all other products can also be used. A new alternative are the particularly light B-Lite implants. These have reduced the weight by around a third through special processing of the silicone gel. This means that 300 gram silicone implants only weigh around 200 grams. This is particularly an advantage with larger implants and in subglandular locations, as the weight of the implant does not pull on the skin as much.
implant shapes
There are round and teardrop-shaped (anatomical) breast implants in different diameters and projections - low, moderate, high or extra high profile. With the teardrop shape, a distinction is also made between a round base or a transverse and longitudinal oval shape. There are over 200 different implants to choose from. Therefore, the right choice of implants is the key to your “dream breasts”.
If you want beautiful, large and full breasts with a great décolleté, you should choose round implants. If you want your desired breasts to look “as natural as possible”, then teardrop or anatomical implants are a better choice. The exact measurement of the breast and the desired breast shape are important in order to select the right implant.
Whichever form of implant you choose, the "initial breast" is always decisive. A detailed consultation and a conversation about your wishes and ideas is a prerequisite for a result that corresponds to your wishes.
Alternative to silicone implants: breast augmentation with autologous fat
Possible alternatives to silicone gel implants are saline implants or breast augmentation with autologous fat. Saline implants are rarely used anymore because they are much harder than silicone implants. They can lose volume after a certain time or, in the worst case, burst. The saline is not dangerous or harmful, but in any case it will require surgery to remove the case, which, by the way, is always made of silicone.
An Breast augmentation by Lipofilling is performed in conjunction with liposuction. With the help of our suction procedure, your fat cells remain "alive" and quickly connect to their new environment. This makes the breast feel particularly natural. With a single treatment under local anesthesia, the breasts can be expanded by up to one cup size. Compared to a conventional implant surgery, patients recover from a breast augmentation with autologous fat much faster. A potential downside, however, is that your body may break down your own fat over time and you would have to repeat the process.
