Considering breast augmentation is a significant decision, and having the right information about your options is essential. Traditional breast augmentation has been a well-established method for many years. However, there’s now an innovative technique called Mia Femtech™. In this guide, we’ll compare these two approaches to help you make the best choice for your needs.
Traditional Breast Augmentation
Traditional breast augmentation involves the placement of implants to enhance the size and shape of the breasts. This procedure is typically performed under general anesthesia and requires an incision, most commonly made in the breast fold.
Advantages:
- Many Options: There are a wide variety of implant sizes and shapes available, allowing the results to be tailored to your preferences.
- Different Placement Options: Implants can be positioned either in front of or behind the chest muscle, depending on what suits you best.
Disadvantages:
- Long Recovery Time: It may take several weeks before you can return to normal activities.
- Visible Scars: The scars can vary in visibility depending on where the incision is made.
- Risk of Complications: As with any surgery, there are risks such as infection, bleeding, or capsular contracture.
Mia Femtech™
Mia Femtech™ is a modern technique for breast augmentation that is less invasive and does not require general anesthesia. Instead, the procedure is performed under local anesthesia. The implant is inserted through a small incision in the armpit, minimizing visible scarring.
Advantages:
- Quick Recovery: You can often return to your daily activities within a few days.
- Minimal Visible Scarring: The incision in the armpit makes the scars barely noticeable.
- Mindre påverkan på kroppen: Bröstvävnaden påverkas minimalt. Det minskar risken för att du förlorar känsel i bröstvårtorna.
- Natural Results: The implants provide a subtle and proportional enhancement of breast size, typically increasing by one to two cup sizes.
Disadvantages:
- Limited Size Increase: Mia Femtech™ is best suited for those seeking a more subtle enhancement.
- No Significant Shape Change: This technique works best if you’re already satisfied with the shape of your breasts and only wish to add more fullness.
Which Method Is Right for You?
Traditional Breast Augmentation Is Right for You If:
- You want a significant increase in breast size.
- You want to change both the size and shape of your breasts.
- You are willing to accept a longer recovery time.
Mia Femtech™ is right for you if:
- You want a subtle and natural enhancement to your breast size.
- You want to minimize scarring and recover quickly.
- You prefer local anesthesia over general anesthesia.
