The aesthetic appearance of breasts depends on multiple factors: genetics, lifestyle, childbirth, and the natural aging process. These changes often lead to a reduction in the contour and volume of the breasts, associated with the loss of glandular tissue and skin sagging. Combined breast augmentation is a breakthrough procedure that simultaneously replenishes missing volume and restores the natural and youthful contours of the breasts through the implantation of implants and the transfer of own fat tissue. This integrated approach not only aims to restore fullness and shape but also ensures a harmoniously detailed aesthetic result that is in line with your body type and personal needs.

 

When is Combined Breast Augmentation Recommended?

Combined breast augmentation is considered when you want to increase the volume of the breasts and improve their contours while aiming for the most natural results possible. This procedure is particularly recommended in the following cases:

 

Post-Pregnancy and Breastfeeding Restoration: Pregnancy and breastfeeding can significantly alter the shape and firmness of the breasts. If the breast regains its previous volume but has sagged, combined breast augmentation can help restore the original, youthful appearance. After Significant Weight Changes: Whether due to weight loss or gain, if the breasts have sagged, the combined technique helps restore the volume and contours of the breast tissue. Need for Natural Appearance: If there is insufficient breast tissue available, and implants alone would not provide a natural result, supplementing the effect of the implants with your own fat transfer can achieve an exceptionally natural and aesthetic appearance.

This technique is especially beneficial for those looking to correct asymmetry or special contours, as well as those striving for maximum naturalness. With combined breast augmentation, the breast becomes not only larger but also shapelier and firmer.

 

Benefits of Combined Breast Augmentation

Combined breast augmentation, also known as hybrid or composite breast augmentation, is one of the most innovative approaches in aesthetic surgery, combining the volume enhancement of implants with the fine contouring possibilities of own fat. This technique offers several unique benefits that significantly distinguish it from traditional procedures:

 

More Natural Appearance: Supplementing implants with your own fat tissue makes the contours of the breasts softer and more natural. The edges of the implants are less detectable, providing a more natural feel and appearance to the breasts. Customized Shaping: The combined technique allows for the breasts’ shape and size to be most accurately tailored to the patient’s individual needs. The use of own fat provides the opportunity for the plastic surgeon to finely tune every small detail of the breast shape, achieving ideal aesthetic results. Reduced Risk of Complications: Since the transfer of own fat increases the softness of the breast tissue, the risk of capsule formation around the implant decreases. This results in a more stable and healthier outcome over the long term. Multifunctional Improvement: Combined breast augmentation not only serves to increase size and shape but also improves the texture and elasticity of the skin. This is particularly advantageous after childbirth, breastfeeding, or significant weight changes, when the quality and tone of the skin often deteriorate. Minimized Surgical Marks: The transfer of own fat allows for the minimization of surgical marks, as the size of the necessary incisions can be significantly reduced by injecting the fat.

 

Thanks to these advantages, combined breast augmentation is becoming an increasingly popular choice for those who consider breast augmentation not only a functional but also an aesthetic and health-conscious decision. The procedure not only makes the breast shape more desirable but also ensures that the end result is natural-looking and long-lasting.

 

Procedure for Combined Breast Augmentation

Combined breast augmentation is a complex surgical procedure that uses the latest techniques to achieve the perfect aesthetic result. This procedure uniquely combines the implantation of breast implants with the transfer of own fat, ensuring a natural appearance and feel. Here are the steps of the surgery, detailed:

 

Consultation and Planning: Before the surgery, a detailed consultation is conducted where the plastic surgeon assesses the patient’s needs and body characteristics. This is when the donor areas (e.g., abdomen, waist, thighs) and the size and shape of the implants are selected. Fat Removal and Transfer: In the first stage of the surgery, we use PAL (Power Assisted Liposuction) vibrational fat removal technology to extract fat from designated donor areas. This method allows for fat collection with minimal trauma, which later serves to finely contour the areas around the implants. Implant Placement: Following fat removal, the selected implants are placed. Usually, slightly smaller implants are chosen to leave room for the insertion of own fat, which refines and naturalizes the final result. Own Fat Insertion: After placing the implants, own fat is grafted in the upper parts of the breasts, where contour irregularities most commonly appear. This helps to hide the boundaries of the implants and improves the texture of the breast tissue. Surgical Closure and Healing: The surgery is closed with special, breathable skin adhesive and plastic surgical stitches. The swelling and bruising that occur in the first few days after surgery are normal and usually subside within 7-10 days. The wounds should not come into contact with water until the stitches are removed, which typically happens after 2 weeks. Post-Treatment and Follow-up Examinations: After the surgery, the patient is given special instructions to facilitate the healing process and achieve the best possible results. Post-treatment includes wearing a special compression bra and, if necessary, diode laser scar treatment starting from the second week post-surgery.

 

Cost of Combined Breast Augmentation
