Combined Breast Augmentation

Advantages of the Procedure

1. Natural Results: Fat grafting camouflages the edges of the implant, creating a smooth transition and a feel that is closer to natural tissue;

2. High Compatibility: Ideal for correcting issues such as stiff contours and asymmetry following traditional implant surgery;

3. Reduced Complications: Fat injection can lower the risk of capsular contracture around the implant;

4. Long-lasting Stability: The implant maintains volume over the long term, while the results from the surviving fat grafts are permanent.

Ideal for:

1. Individuals with congenital underdeveloped breasts or severe flat chests;

2. Those with thin subcutaneous fat (<0.5cm) where implants may become visibly apparent;

3. Patients with mild breast ptosis requiring simultaneous contour correction.

Contraindications:

1. Minors, pregnant women, and breastfeeding women;

2. Individuals with uncontrolled breast diseases or systemic infections;

3. Patients with psychiatric disorders or psychological impairments;

4. Those with severe keloid-prone scarring tendencies or coagulation disorders;

5. Insufficient autologous fat reserves (e.g., due to excessive thinness).

Select Equipment

- Liposuction Equipment: Advanced liposuction devices enable more precise and uniform extraction of autologous fat, minimizing damage to fat cells and enhancing fat graft survival. For instance, water-assisted liposuction systems utilize spiral water knives, applying pressurized water jets to precisely target specific tissues, selectively separating fat cells for superior extraction outcomes.

- Implant-Related Equipment: Devices such as endoscopes are employed during implant placement to provide clear visualization of anatomical structures within the surgical field, reducing tissue trauma and improving the safety and accuracy of the procedure.

- Equipment Related to Implant Placement: Devices such as endoscopes allow surgeons to clearly visualize the anatomical structures within the surgical area during implant placement, reducing surgical trauma while improving safety and accuracy.

Price

The cost of combined breast augmentation varies based on multiple factors, typically ranging from approximately 18,000,000 to 55,000,000 Korean won. Key influencing factors include:

Implant brand and type: Premium imported brands command higher prices, while domestic or standard brands are more affordable.

Surgeon expertise and reputation: Highly experienced and renowned surgeons generally charge higher fees.

Regional differences: Procedures in first-tier cities and economically advanced regions typically cost more than those in second- or third-tier cities.

Combined Treatment

Composite breast augmentation is itself a combined treatment approach that integrates implant-based augmentation with autologous fat grafting. Additionally, it can be performed in conjunction with other cosmetic procedures, such as breast lift surgery. For patients with significant breast ptosis, performing a breast lift simultaneously with composite breast augmentation can better enhance the overall breast contour and achieve more ideal aesthetic outcomes.

Side Effects and Complications

- Infection: If aseptic techniques are not strictly followed during surgery or postoperative care is inadequate, infection may occur. Symptoms include breast redness, swelling, pain, and fever. In severe cases, the implant may need to be removed for anti-infective treatment.

- Fat liquefaction: After autologous fat transfer, some fat cells may undergo liquefaction due to poor blood supply, forming hard nodules or cysts.

- Capsular contracture: This is one of the common complications of implant breast augmentation, characterized by breast hardening and deformation, often accompanied by pain. Severe capsular contracture requires surgical intervention.

- Bleeding and hematoma: Incomplete hemostasis during surgery may lead to postoperative bleeding and hematoma, affecting surgical outcomes and recovery time.

Side Effects

In addition to the previously mentioned side effects such as infection, fat liquefaction, and capsular contracture, abnormal skin sensation may also occur. During surgery, nerves surrounding the breast may be damaged, leading to reduced sensation, numbness, or tingling in the breast skin. While some patients experience gradual improvement over time, a small number may suffer from persistent symptoms.

Contraindications for the Procedure

Individuals with severe systemic conditions such as heart disease, hypertension, or diabetes who cannot tolerate surgery.

Patients with active infection sites in the breast or other parts of the body.

Patients taking certain medications, such as anticoagulants, which may compromise surgical safety, must discontinue use for a specified period before undergoing surgery.

Individuals with unstable psychological states or unrealistic expectations regarding surgical outcomes.

Contraindications

Individuals with severe systemic conditions such as heart disease, hypertension, or diabetes who cannot tolerate surgery.

Patients with active infections in the breasts or other parts of the body.

Individuals taking certain medications, such as anticoagulants, that may compromise surgical safety; surgery should be postponed until these medications have been discontinued for an appropriate period.

Patients with unstable psychological states or unrealistic expectations regarding surgical outcomes.

Side Effects

In addition to the side effects mentioned earlier, such as infection, fat liquefaction, and capsular contracture of the implant, patients may also experience abnormal skin sensation. During surgery, nerves surrounding the breast may be damaged, leading to symptoms like reduced sensation, numbness, or tingling in the breast skin. For some patients, these symptoms may gradually improve over time, while for a small number of patients, they may persist long-term.

Self-Diagnosis of Symptoms

If you experience breast redness, swelling, increased pain, or fever after surgery, it may indicate an infection, and you should seek medical attention promptly.

If you detect lumps or hard areas upon touching your breasts, this could be a sign of fat liquefaction or capsular contracture of the implant, requiring further examination to determine the cause.

Any abnormal skin sensations, such as numbness or tingling, should also be reported to your doctor for evaluation and appropriate management.
