Sarasin Clinic: breast augmentation Ghent by experienced surgeon

Uncertain about the size or shape of your breasts? At Sarasin Clinic near Ghent, you can go for breast augmentation. We offer the professionalism of a hospital with the service, confidentiality and personal approach of a private clinic.

Breast augmentation through plastic surgery

Enlarging your breasts can only be done through plastic surgery. Breast augmentation gives extra volume to your breasts. Having a breast augmentation done through surgery is a fairly invasive procedure for which you should allow for a recovery period.

The result of the procedure is permanent, though, so you only have to undergo the procedure once. Exactly what that procedure looks like depends on what type of treatment you choose or need.

2 types of breast augmentation treatments at Sarasin Clinic

• At Sarasin Clinic, within plastic surgery, we are committed to two types of breast augmentation treatments: one breast augmentation with implants and breast augmentation with our own fat (lipofilling).
• Whether you choose lipofilling or implants depends on your personal preference, your expectations of the end result and the anatomy of your body. For example, lipofilling allows you to create less volume.
• If you're unsure about which treatment youneed, you can schedule a schedule a consultation with one of our plastic surgeons for expert advice. They will help you make the right choice.
• In addition, the plastic surgeon can create a 3D simulation of breast augmentation. This allows you to get a good idea of what the final result will look like on you.

Breast augmentation with implants

• For breast augmentation with breast implants, we work with different techniques and prostheses. Which technique and implants we use for the procedure depends on the anatomical characteristics of your body.
• Breast augmentation with breast prostheses requires many choices to be made. These include where to incise, whether to place the implants above or below the muscle, which implants to use....
• It is important to us that your personal wishes are taken into account as much as possible when making these choices. Therefore, before surgery, the plastic surgeon will sit down with you to make these decisions. You can always count on the honest and professional opinion of our doctor during the consultation. He will clearly indicate whether your expectations are realistic and what the advantages and disadvantages are.

Breast augmentation above or below the pectoral muscle?

• In breast augmentation with prostheses, the prosthesis can be placed either above or below the pectoral muscle. If you choose to place the prosthesis above the large pectoral muscle, you will get a more natural result. However, this technique is not suitable for skinny people or those with thin skin.
• If you place the prosthesis under the large breast muscle, the breasts will be firmer, but will also feel harder. With this technique, you will have less capsularization, but the result will look slightly less natural.

Minimize scarring through minimal cutting

• What we strive for in every patient is a minimal incision for implant placement to keep the scar as small as possible. We work with incisions through the areola, armpit or breast crease. Together with your plastic surgeon, you decide which technique and breast prostheses to use.

Lipofilling: breast augmentation with your own fat

• In addition to breast implants, another technique for creating volume in the breast is lipofilling. This involves using your own fat tissue to enlarge the breast. In such surgery, we remove fatty tissue from the abdomen or buttocks and apply it to the breast.
• Lipofilling also requires surgery. The great advantage of this technique is that with lipofilling you have less chance of complications. This is because you are using the body's own fat.

Possible complications of breast augmentation

• Depending on which technique you prefer, you may face certain complications, although in most patients these are of a mild nature or do not occur at all. As we mentioned above, with lipofilling there is less risk of complications because you are using the body's own fatty tissue. This is not the case with an implant, which can cause capsular contracture.
• Encapsulation is the most common complication and occurs in 3-5% of people who undergo breast augmentation. With capsular contracture, the body starts to view the implants as foreign to the body. As a result, scar tissue forms around the implant, which is undesirable.
• Another complication that can occur is the formation of an infection. In order to avoid the risk of infection as much as possible, we take several precautions in the operating room. For this, you can count on the professionalism of both our plastic surgeon and the rest of the team in the operating room.

Lots of experience

• Due to their years of experience, our surgeons have already performed many prostheses and lipofillings on many women. Thus, they have developed the skills to create a beautiful result in accordance with the anatomy of each patient.
• Thus, our plastic surgeons are particularly skilled at performing the Dual Plane technique. In this, the top of the prosthesis sits under the breast muscle, while the top is placed under the glandular tissue of the breast. This technique produces very beautiful results, but also requires a skilled surgeon.
• Breast surgery at Sarasin Clinic is always done under general anesthesia to avoid unnecessary pain. Whether you place prostheses in the breast or choose to fill the breast with your own fat tissue, a full anesthetic is required to ensure that you are not in pain.

Why choose a private clinic for aesthetic surgery

• Why would you choose to have breast augmentation performed in a private clinic? A private clinic offers a lot ofextra comfort and you have the guarantee that you will be treated by a specialist.

Personal and qualitative

• In a private clinic, you enjoy a very personalized treatment, from the first consultation to the aftercare after surgery. Moreover, aftercare in a private clinic is of a higher quality than in a hospital. In any case, a nurse will be by your side when you wake up.
• In addition, you don't have to worry about a difference in quality. The doctors who work at our clinic also work at the hospital. The big difference is that in a private clinic, they are more focused on the aesthetics of the results than on the efficiency of the surgery.
