According to statistics, 24% of women in the world are not satisfied with the size of their breasts and 16% are ready to enlarge them with the help of a plastic surgeon. Among them, nearly 30% have a zero breast size, which is considered a difficult case in plastic surgery. How realistic is this and what methods are used to enlarge the zero size breast?
Indeed, the emergence of this method has given the possibility to the realization of 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 insert 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 have looked like a ball covered with skin.
What is hybrid fix?
At first, liposuction appeared, a method of removing excess fatty tissue from problem areas: thighs, abdomen, waist. In addition, doctors have begun to conduct experiments which have shown that fat takes root well and can be used as a donor material for various body sculptures, in areas where additional volume is required.
This is how lipofilling appeared, which formed the basis of the hybrid technique. During the hybrid correction, a conditional frame or "cushion" is created along the contour of the implant with the help of the patient's fat previously removed so that it does not feel like something separate to the touch. This avoids the infamous tight ball effect. That is, the implant is "surrounded" by soft fat and looks very natural! After the edema subsides, 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 one operation, which takes about 2-3 hours. But there are also cases when the implant is installed directly for the first time, the reduction of edema and the appearance of the real contours of the new breast are expected. It takes about a month, after which you can safely frame the chest with fat.
You must 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 tight), it is still necessary to 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 breasts with fat adds slightly volume and hides the implant under the fat layer for a more natural breast.
Who is this technique for?
First of all, it is recommended for women who do not have their own fat layer on their breasts and few mammary glands responsible for breast volume - this is the infamous "zero" size. You must understand that size zero is an absolutely flat chest, on which only the nipples stand out (depending on the body of the child).
In the past, many surgeons have refused to perform surgery on girls with zero breasts.
If you simply insert an implant with these physiological characteristics of a woman, after the tissue edema has subsided, the implant will become clearly visible, right down to the contours. For example, it will be evident in the anterior axillary region, and this is not only not aesthetically pleasing, but also causes physical discomfort to the patient herself. Imagine clearly feeling 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 arms. Next, the surgeon makes an incision in a specific access area, which is negotiated separately with the patient. Access is possible through the nipple contour, in the armpit or in the crease under the breast. Then there is a detachment of the gland and pectoral muscle tissues - this is done to form a conditional "pocket" in which the implant is placed.
Furthermore, the fat collected during liposuction is separated: it is purified from plasma and other blood derivatives. Then the clean mass is injected through a special fine needle along the implant contour.
Usually one of these manipulations is enough to obtain a stable and 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, breasts look very natural and are hard to distinguish from natural to the touch.
Recovery period
From the time of the operation, the first two weeks or so require primary rehabilitation. At this time, the woman will not be able to work, so she will have to take sick leave. As for pain, they are present in the first two or three days after manipulation, but at the same time they are easily eliminated with anesthetic drugs. After three days, the patient can go home, subject to strict adherence to the surgeon's recommendations.
Two weeks later, an examination and removal of the stitches are planned. At this point, in general, the woman gets used to new forms, the initial discomfort passes. You can start playing sports in gentle mode, eliminating the load on the shoulders and chest area. Don't lift heavy kettlebells or make sudden movements.
In addition, during the first month, the patient must constantly wear special compression garments: it helps to fix the correct anatomical position of the new breast.
You will be able to admire the final result in about 5-6 months, when the hidden edema disappears and the sensitivity of the tissues is completely restored.
