PROCEDURE DETAILS

Patient presented with hypomastia desiring augmentation. Patient underwent breast augmentation with Mentor MemoryGel XTRA smooth moderate plus silicone implants in the submuscular (underneath the pectoralis muscle) plane using an inframammary (under your breast) fold incision.

In a world that places emphasis on aesthetic symmetry and self-expression, the decision to opt for breast augmentation often transcends the physical. For our patient, a poised woman in her early fifties, the decision to seek enhancement was more than skin deep. It was about aligning her exterior with how she felt on the inside: confident, vivacious, and full of zest.

Her choice of Mentor MemoryGel XTRA implants was underpinned not just by their impeccable safety record, but also the promise of a tactile feel akin to natural breast tissue. While 370 cc might seem like a number, in the grand scheme of things, it was about balance and proportionality. The implant’s volume was meticulously chosen to resonate with her tall, slender frame, ensuring that her postoperative silhouette radiated both sophistication and subtlety.

The submuscular placement and inframammary fold incision, although clinical in their terminology, are representative of the science and precision that goes behind such transformative procedures. These choices aren’t just about aesthetics, but also long-term health, comfort, and the longevity of the results.

Now, a month post-operation, the change in her isn’t just the augmented contour, but the added spring in her step, the assertiveness in her voice, and the glint in her eyes. This procedure, like many others in the realm of aesthetic surgery, bridges the gap between self-perception and self-expression. It’s a reminder that in the quest for self-enhancement, age is but a number, and it’s never too late to seek out versions of ourselves that resonate with our innermost aspirations.
