Breast augmentation
If the breasts seem too small or are not symmetrical, or if lost volume needs to be restored — for example after breastfeeding or significant weight loss — breast augmentation is the best solution.
The operation is performed by placing silicone implants under the mammary glands or under the muscle. Thanks to modern technology, silicone implants have a very long warranty period, they carry no risk of tumours, are not allergenic and do not interfere with pregnancy — a woman can breastfeed after breast surgery. The incision can be made in the natural fold under the breast, in the armpit or around the areola, and the scars are almost invisible. The operation is performed under general anaesthesia; one night is spent at the clinic, the stitches are removed on the seventh day, and a special bra is then worn for a month.
Breast lift (mastopexy)
If the breasts have lost their shape but kept the desired size, a breast lift can improve them without implants and without touching the mammary glands.
The operation allows breasts of any size to be lifted, although the effect lasts longer in women with smaller breasts. It is performed under general anaesthesia; one night is spent at the clinic, the stitches are removed on the seventh day, and a special bra is then worn for a month.
Breast lift with augmentation
If the breasts have lost their shape after weight loss or breastfeeding, the breast lift described above is performed together with augmentation using silicone implants. One night is spent at the clinic, the stitches are removed on the seventh day, and a special bra is then worn for a month.
Breast reduction
Not every woman wants large breasts. Overly large breasts can in time cause discomfort and pain in the back and neck. During breast reduction the surgeon removes the excess fat and glandular tissue and moves the nipple and areola to a new position, shaping the breast. The operation is performed under general anaesthesia; one night is spent at the clinic, the stitches are removed on the seventh day, and a special bra is then worn for a month.
Frequently asked questions
In which cases can breast augmentation be considered?
Breast augmentation may be considered if the breasts seem too small or asymmetric, or if volume needs to be restored after breastfeeding or significant weight loss.
Where are the implants placed and where can the incisions be?
Implants can be placed under the breast gland or under the muscle. Incisions can be made in the natural fold beneath the breast, in the armpit or around the areola.
Which breast corrections are possible?
Breast augmentation, a breast lift without implants, a lift combined with augmentation, and breast reduction are all possible.
What is the recovery like?
The surgery is performed under general anaesthesia. Patients usually stay at the clinic for one night, sutures are removed on the seventh day, and a special support bra is worn for about a month.
How much does breast surgery cost?
Breast augmentation with implants costs EUR 3,800–4,500, a breast lift EUR 3,500–4,000, a lift with implants EUR 4,800–5,500, and breast reduction EUR 3,500–5,000. The exact price depends on the correction chosen and the extent of the surgery.
