Good to know about breast surgery: duration, scars, anaesthesia, own fat

How long does a breast augmentation take, where do the scars run, are drains needed, and is your own fat an alternative to silicone? Ten videos with tips and facts from Dr. Andreas Dobrovits and Dr. René Draxler.

In brief: good to know

The answers from the videos in brief:

A breast augmentation usually takes about an hour — and as long as it takes to get the result right.
Most patients stay one night at the centre; more than 90 per cent take up the option.
The scars lie in the breast fold or at the edge of the areola and are usually barely visible after nine to twelve months.
Every breast lift involves work on the breast tissue beneath the skin — the “internal bra” makes the result last longer.
Own fat suits smaller increases in volume, silicone any desired volume.

Frequently asked questions

How long does a breast augmentation take?

Usually about an hour. Because the Kuzbari Centre has its own operating theatres, there is no time pressure.

Where do the scars run?

Usually in the breast fold or at the edge of the areola — depending on anatomy, implant size and your wishes. After nine to twelve months they are usually barely visible.

Own fat or silicone?

Own fat is an option for smaller increases if there is enough fatty tissue; silicone implants suit any desired volume. A combination is also possible.

Do I have to stay in hospital after breast surgery?

You usually stay one night on the Kuzbari Centre’s ward, with round-the-clock nursing care.

Is a breast lift possible without an implant?

Yes. Whether the lift alone is enough or an implant is added for more fullness is clarified in the consultation.
