Hybrid breast surgery Mannheim

Hybrid breast augmentation is perfect for women who attach great importance to a particularly natural breast augmentation result. This also applies to slim women who have little breast tissue themselves.

Hybrid breast augmentation is performed in several steps. First, Dr. Schumacher removes fat from the patient's own body as part of liposuction and has it processed. The fat is usually taken from the abdomen or thighs, which has the practical side effect of removing smaller fat deposits and optimizing the overall silhouette.

The selected implant is then placed in the appropriate location via an incision in the underbust crease (in some cases also via the armpit or areola). The prepared autologous fat is then injected with very fine cannulas, primarily into the upper breast area, where it covers the inserted implant and can be distributed throughout the breast if necessary to optimize the shape.

Allow yourself and your body to rest for a few days after the operation. Take it easy and avoid physically strenuous activities such as sport. Make sure that you do not lift any heavy objects or your arms above your head in the first few weeks after breast augmentation. To support the healing process and prevent complications, you will need to wear a special support bra for a few weeks and sleep on your back.

As with all surgical procedures, swelling, bruising and pain may occur in the operated area after breast augmentation. However, this will subside within a few days. The pain can be easily managed with conventional painkillers. In rare cases, post-operative bleeding, wound healing disorders, infections or loss of sensation in the nipples may occur. However, these risks are significantly minimized by choosing a competent and experienced surgeon such as Dr. Schumacher in Mannheim.

Yes, as with any breast augmentation with implants, an incision is necessary to place the implant in the correct position. This incision heals to form a scar. To keep the visual impact of the scar as small as possible, Dr. Schumacher usually makes the incision in the underbust crease, where it is barely visible. In some cases, it may be necessary to access the armpit or nipple, but here too the incisions are very fine and the scars correspondingly thin.

Many patients report a tight or sore feeling in their breasts after hybrid breast augmentation and some of them experience pain. While the feelings of tension subside on their own in the days following the operation, you can treat the soreness well with conventional painkillers. If required, you can obtain an appropriate prescription directly from Dr. Schumacher's practice in Mannheim.
