Principle of operation

how hyaluronic acid is used for breast augmentation

Hyaluron is a large molecule that can retain a lot of moisture. The drug activates its own production of collagen, so it makes the skin smoother, more elastic, moisturizes and smoothes wrinkles.

In addition, the needles help to compress and enlarge the breasts, giving them elasticity. The tool is considered the most effective and safe, does not cause allergies and is not rejected by the human body.

The principle of operation is as follows:

  1. The substance penetrates deep into the subcutaneous layers and fills the cavity. Due to its dense, viscous structure, the acid remains in the tissues long enough.
  2. The substance injected under the skin actively attracts moisture, thereby enlarging and moisturizing the skin.

Over time, the substance is naturally eliminated from the body.

Advantages

The technique has a number of indisputable advantages:

  1. Security.Modern fillers contain hyaluronic acid, which has the same properties as the hyaluronic acid produced by the body, so there are no side effects.
  2. Simplicity of the procedure.The session does not last more than two hours and does not require surgery.
  3. Lack of anesthesia. . . Only local anesthesia is used.
  4. Painless.The fillers are fairly easy to inject.
  5. Multifunctionality of drugs.When using modern fillers, you can change not only the volume, but also the shape of the breast, as well as eliminate asymmetry.
  6. No allergic reactions.The filler is close to the composition of breast tissue, which means that it is excluded from the study and the manifestation of allergies.
  7. Short recovery time(A few days).
  8. The result can be evaluated immediately after the procedure.because with this technology the swelling is not pronounced as in other methods, and the filler is immediately distributed in the corrected places.
  9. Additional adjustments are allowed, after a while, to maintain efficiency.

Defects

Despite the many advantages, the method has some disadvantages, namely:

  1. Difficult diagnosis of mammary glands. X-ray examination of the mammary glands after the procedure is not recommended, as the fillers will be visible on x-ray. Doctors can make a mistake in the diagnosis by misjudging the results of the procedure for a tumor.
  2. Multiple examination of the breast for the complexity of palpation and the presence of neoplasms.
  3. Fragileness. The effect lasts a maximum of 2 years.
  4. Probability of filler migration.
  5. Probability of infection. To prevent such a problem, you should follow hygiene and follow the recommendations of a cosmetologist.
  6. High cost of service.

Training

tests before breast augmentation

Two weeks before the injections, you should undergo a general examination and tests to be prescribed by a specialist in charge of the procedure.

As a rule, this is a general analysis of blood and urine, biochemistry, coagulogram. The doctor should consult an electrocardiogram and ultrasound examination of the mammary glands. It is necessary to consult a therapist and endocrinologist before the operation.

It is not recommended to drink alcohol a few days before injections. It is important! Before the operation, the doctor should know how to take any medication.

Technique

This operation must be performed by a qualified professional who has completed a special training course. Must have diplomas and certificates confirming their specialties.

The work is carried out in several stages:

  1. The skin is treated with antiseptic, local anesthesia is applied.
  2. After a few minutes, the drug is slowly injected into pre-marked areas.
  3. Fillers can be injected in different ways (under the nipple or under the large muscle). It depends on the original shape of the breast and the desired result.
  4. After the application of HA, the tissues are again treated with antiseptic.

The maximum volume of the drug injected into one breast should not exceed 300 ml.

Rehabilitation

compression garments after breast enlargement

Depending on the individual characteristics of the body, the recovery period lasts an average of one to three weeks.

To avoid serious complications, you should not visit the pool, solarium and sauna for a few weeks after the procedure and avoid hypothermia.

It is strictly forbidden to sleep on your chest so that the gel does not move. Also, you cannot massage during the recovery period.

The first 3-4 weeks are recommended to reduce physical activity, especially in the upper body. You should not wear normal bras or synthetic fabrics.

Special compression underwear is required during rehabilitation.

If you follow these simple rules, the result will be only pleasant.

Complications

After surgery, patients rarely experience any complications. One of the common side effects can be distinguished:

  • rot and swelling in the puncture sites of the skin;
  • mild pain in the chest;
  • increase in body temperature (rare).

Such symptoms are observed two days after surgery.

Sometimes more serious consequences emerge. In most cases, this is due to the fact that the patient does not follow the recommendations during the rehabilitation period or after the procedure, contrary to the contraindications.

Such complications are likely:

  • bride spread and migration;
  • inflammatory processes;
  • the gel does not take a certain shape;
  • asymmetry;
  • necrosis of breast tissue (occurs when infection occurs).

Efficiency

breast measurement after growth

The desired result lasts 12-24 months. The acid dissolves in the body over time.

The duration of exposure depends on individual characteristics, especially the condition, firmness and elasticity of the skin. The final result is evaluated at the end of the rehabilitation period.

An adjustment should be made every 1-2 years to maintain the effect. During the initial correction, 40% of the initial volume of the filler is injected into the mammary glands.

With the second - about 15%. This method significantly prolongs the effect and reduces the risk of premature loss of breast shape.

Prices

The equipment is very expensive. The final price depends on the following factors:

  • the amount of filler provided;
  • cost of the drug;
  • reputation of the clinic;
  • cost of cosmetologist services.

Alternative methods

Mamopoplasty

The result is the insertion of silicone implants into the mammary glands. Although this technique is effective, it has many disadvantages.

First, surgery is required under general anesthesia, and second, an implant problem may occur.

After injections with hyaluronic acid, breasts look more natural than mammoplasty.

Thread lifting

lifting stitches for breast augmentation

This technique aims to correct and improve the shape of the bust without surgery.

Despite the simplicity of the procedure, it is not suitable for everyone and has a number of serious limitations.

As a result of tightening with threads, breast volume does not increase, but becomes more elastic, supple and toned.

Mesotherapy

The technique involves inserting a meso-cocktail into the mammary glands, the composition of which is determined by a specialist according to the problem.

Mesotherapy helps to enlarge the breasts, get rid of stretch marks, age spots and scars. Many patients report that such a procedure is painful.

Laser correction

This is a relatively new technology for bust correction. Its essence is the use of laser beams that affect the mammary glands.

Unlike other methods, laser technology can only slightly improve the shape of the nipple by squeezing it.

Enlarge your bust with your own oil

The procedure involves removing your own fat from the problem areas, then processing a special fat and then inserting it into the mammary glands.

The undeniable advantage of this technology is that foreign bodies and substances do not enter the body.

In addition to increasing the volume, you can also get rid of unnecessary fat deposits. This method is not suitable for underweight girls.

Folk methods

The most common methods of breast augmentation with folk remedies are:

  1. Iodine test.
  2. Application of compresses.
  3. Use of special infusions.

The effect of folk remedies is possible only after very long use.

Reviews

Analyzing the opinions of patients, we can conclude that women who have breast augmentation with hyaluronic acid are satisfied with the result.
