According to statistics, 24% of women in the world are dissatisfied with the size of their breasts, and 16% are willing to increase it with the help of a plastic surgeon. Among them, almost 30% have zero breast size, which is considered a difficult case in plastic surgery. How realistic is this and what methods are used to enlarge breasts with zero size?
In fact, the advent of this method gave a chance to realize their dream of big breasts for those who previously could not be helped. If the girl has her second or at least the first breast size, you can stretch the skin and place an implant. In girls with zero breast size, many surgeons refused to perform the operation. Implant placement is impossible due to the unaesthetic result - the breast will look like a ball covered with skin.
What is a hybrid correction?
In the beginning, liposuction appeared - a method for removing excess fat from problem areas: thighs, abdomen, waist. In addition, doctors have begun conducting experiments that have shown that fats take root well and can be used as donor material for various body shapes, in areas where extra volume is required.
This is how lipofilling appeared, which forms the basis of the hybrid technique. During hybrid correction, with the help of pre-taken fat from the patient, a conditional frame or "cushion" is created along the contour of the implant so that it does not feel like something separate to the touch. This avoids the notorious effect of a stretched ball. That is, the implant is "surrounded" by soft fat and looks very natural! After the swelling disappears, when the real 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 that lasts about 2-3 hours. But there are also cases when the implant is installed for the first time directly, swelling is expected to decrease and the appearance of the real contours of the new breast. It takes about a month, after which you can safely shape your breasts with fat.
You need to understand that the zero size is absolutely flat breasts, on which only the nipples stand out.
Advantage of hybrid correction
If it is still possible to solve the problem of lack of skin (the skin is stretched), you should still keep in mind that the skin will stretch exactly to the size of the implant. And the implant itself will be clearly visible and noticeable to the touch. Filling the breast with fat slightly adds volume and hides the implant under the fat layer for a more natural breast.
Who is this technique for?
Primarily recommended for women who lack their own fat layer of the breasts and few mammary glands responsible for breast volume - this is the notorious "zero" size. You should understand that the zero size is an absolutely flat chest, on which only the nipples stand out (according to the type of the child's physique).
In the past, many surgeons refused to perform operations on girls with zero breast size.
If you simply place an implant with such physiological characteristics on the woman after the tissue swelling subsides, the implant will become clearly visible, all the way to the contours. For example, it will be noticeable in the anterior axillary area and this is not only not aesthetically pleasing, but also causes physical discomfort to the patient herself. Imagine that you clearly feel a foreign body inside you, it worries you, both physically and emotionally. However, nothing else can be done with the classic augmentation method - there is no fat and the implant is covered only with skin.
How does the operation work?
First, the surgeon removes fat from areas of the body where it is usually abundant - these are fat deposits on the sides, abdomen, thighs, knees or arms. The surgeon then makes an incision in a specific access area, which is agreed with the patient separately. Access is possible through the contour of the nipple, in the armpit or in the fold under the breast. Then there is the separation of the tissues of the gland and the pectoral muscle - this is done to form a conditional "pocket" where the implant is placed.
In addition, the fat collected during liposuction is separated - it is purified from plasma and other blood derivatives. The cleaned mass is then injected through a special thin needle along the contour of the implant.
Usually such a manipulation is enough to get 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 a hybrid correction, the breasts look very natural and are difficult to distinguish from the natural ones by touch.
Recovery period
From the moment of the operation, the first two weeks or a little more takes primary rehabilitation. At that time, the woman will not be able to work, so she will have to use sick leave. As for the pain, they are present for the first two to three days after the manipulation, but at the same time they are easily eliminated with anesthetic drugs. After three days, the patient can return home, in strict accordance with the recommendations of the surgeon.
Two weeks later, the stitches will be inspected and removed. At this time, in general, the woman gets used to new forms, the initial discomfort passes. You can start exercising in a gentle mode, eliminating the load on the shoulders and chest area. Do not lift heavy weights or make sudden movements.
In addition, during the first month, the patient must constantly wear special compression garments - this helps to fix 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 swelling subsides and tissue sensitivity is completely restored.
