This operation can be done from the age of 17. But it is advised sometimes to delay the operation until all planned pregnancies are over. The operation generally lasts an average of two hours, requires general anesthesia and a stay in the clinic of about three days. In this type of procedure the scars are more visible than in the other two.</p> <p class="text"><b>Breasts - Too Small</b></p> <p class="text">When breasts are increased with implants, a partial anesthesia is often used. The choice of the positioning of the implant (in front of or behind the muscle), of the type of incision (around the areola or under the armpit), of the volume or of the nature of implant vary depending on the anatomy and quality of the skin. This procedure can be performed at the end of adolescence. The scars are almost invisible and the results are excellent and natural. For those who do not wish implants, surgeons of LACLINIC are the only ones in Switzerland to offer breast augmentation using microsurgical skin tissues taken from the patient herself without the addition of prosthesis.</p> <p class="text"><b>Sagging Breasts</b></p> <p class="text">It is more often after a pregnancy or weight loss that the mammary gland collapses. The procedure consists in remodeling the breasts by fixing the gland in a good position and by removing the excess skin. This procedure can be done at any age. It is generally performed under partial anesthesia. A stay at the clinic is not always necessary.</p> <p class="text"> <b>Pre and Post-Operative Effects and Results</b></p> <p class="text">Blood exams are done systematically before the operation to trace eventual contra-indications. These procedures do not involve pain and if any, very little. The patient will be required to wear a support bra day and night for three weeks. Definite results are visible after two months. The breasts have then a harmonious and natural shape. The sensitivity is preserved and generally breastfeeding remains possible even after large reductions.</p> </td> <td width="274" valign="top" height="161"> <div align="right"> <p> </p> <div align="right"> <p align="right"><span class="text4"><img src="../../images/seins-augmentation.jpg" width="240" height="83" vspace=15 alt="breast augmentation"></span></p> <p align="right"><span class="text4"><font size="4" color="#666666">Embellishing the breasts</font></span></p> <br> </div> <div align="right"></div> <p><img src="../../images/seins-reduction.jpg" width="240" height="83" alt="breast reduction"></p> </div> </td> </tr> </table> </td> </tr> <tr> <table width="650" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" dwcopytype="CopyTableRow"> </table> </tr> <tr> </tr> </table> </td> </tr> </table> </td> </tr> <tr> <td> <div align="center"> <p> </p> <p><font align="center" color="D8DCE8" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="-1">© LACLINIC / Dr Michel Pfulg, MD, aesthetic surgeon, Avenue de Collonge 43, CH-1820 Montreux, Switzerland</font> </p> </div> </td> </tr> </table>
