Breast augmentation in Zurich

Aesthetics and well-being for a feminine body feeling.

Breast augmentation at our clinic in Zurich is used to give the breasts more volume and to make the body proportions more harmonious. It can significantly increase self-confidence and self-esteem. Dr. Deniel Kish offers a variety of implant options that are individually tailored to the patient's wishes to achieve aesthetically pleasing and natural-looking results. By choosing the right implant, the procedure can improve the fit of clothing and optimize the overall appearance.

Types of breast implants

Various implant options are available, differing in shape, size and material. Dr. Kish offers both saline and modern silicone gel implants, including the popular "gummy bear" type. Patients can choose between smooth and textured silicone shells as well as round or anatomically shaped implants. The decision for the right implant is based on individual wishes and physical conditions, which Dr. Kish carefully discusses with the patient during the consultation in order to achieve the best possible results.

Breast augmentation - incisions

Various incisions are available for breast augmentation in Zurich, which have an influence on scarring, implant placement and the ability to breastfeed. Dr. Kish offers the periareolar incision, which is made along the areola, and the inframammary incision in the natural breast crease. The periareolar incision is less conspicuous but carries a certain risk to the ability to breastfeed. The inframammary incision allows for precise placement of the implant and reduces potential problems with breastfeeding, with the scar remaining hidden in the natural fold of skin.

Insertion of breast implants

Breast implants are placed either submuscularly, under the pectoral muscle, or subglandularly, directly behind the breast tissue. Submuscular placement offers a more natural appearance and reduces the risk of capsular contracture. Subglandular placement allows for easier surgery and faster recovery, but is more suitable for patients with sufficient natural breast tissue. Dr. Kish will choose the best placement option in consultation with the patient based on their individual anatomical requirements and aesthetic goals.

Preparation and follow-up of breast augmentation in Zurich

Preparation for breast augmentation in Zurich begins with a consultation in which Dr. Kish discusses the patient's medical history and goals. Before the operation, healthy habits such as a balanced diet and refraining from smoking are important. After the procedure, swelling and mild discomfort will occur, which can be relieved with pain medication and wearing a surgical bra. Strenuous activity should be avoided for 4-6 weeks. The final results are visible after a few months, while regular check-ups monitor and optimize the healing process.

Frequently asked questions

Am I a good candidate for breast augmentation?2024-08-27T15:30:54+02:00

Breast augmentation is suitable for women who want to enlarge their breasts or restore lost volume due to pregnancy, ageing or weight loss. You should be in good health, have no uncontrolled medical problems and have stopped smoking at least two weeks before the procedure. Slight sagging or asymmetry of the breasts are also indicators. If you have recently stopped breastfeeding, you should wait 1-2 months for the breast size to stabilize.

Are silicone or saline implants better?2024-08-27T15:31:15+02:00

Both types of implants have advantages and disadvantages. Silicone implants feel more natural and have a lower risk of wrinkling, while saline implants require smaller incisions and are easier to adjust in size. The choice depends on individual preference and body type.

How long do breast implants last?2024-08-27T15:31:40+02:00

Breast implants last on average 10 to 15 years, but can also last longer. Over time, they may need to be replaced due to ruptures, leaks or other complications.

Can I breastfeed after breast augmentation?2024-08-27T15:32:02+02:00

Many women can successfully breastfeed after breast augmentation, but there is no guarantee. The type of incision and the placement of the implant can affect the ability to breastfeed.

Are there any risks associated with breast augmentation?2024-08-27T15:32:26+02:00

Yes, as with any surgical procedure, there are risks. These include capsular contracture, rupture, infection, changes in nipple or breast sensation and unsatisfactory results.

Can I combine other procedures with breast augmentation?2024-08-27T15:32:48+02:00

Many women combine breast augmentation with other procedures, such as a breast lift or fat transfer, to achieve a more harmonious result. Procedures such as a tummy tuck and liposuction can also be performed at the same time.

Can I continue to have mammograms after the insertion of implants?2024-08-27T15:33:25+02:00

Yes, but it is important to inform the mammography technician about the implants. Special techniques can be used to perform the mammogram effectively and minimize damage to the implants.

How soon can I exercise after breast augmentation?2024-08-27T15:33:47+02:00

Light activities can be resumed after a few days, but strenuous exercises, especially those involving the chest, should be avoided for at least 4-6 weeks.

What happens if I want to remove or replace my implants?2024-08-27T15:34:08+02:00

Implants can be removed or replaced by a second procedure. Some women replace old implants, while others have them removed without replacement. The procedure depends on individual needs and possible complications.
