Over the past centuries, many ways to change the shape (and, of course, volume) of the breast have been invented. There were also special cosmetic procedures and products, homeopathy, clothing, folk remedies and hydromassage (which, by the way, is very effective due to increased blood microcirculation). Nowadays, mammoplasty, a surgical method, is considered the most effective method of breast correction. It implies correction of the volume, shape, contours of the nipple or areola of the breast.

Implants need to be replaced every 5-10 years
This popular myth about breast surgery dates back to the early days of implants. Then their shell was quite thin and fragile. Movements of the chest during breathing led to its deformation and damage. To avoid such problems, doctors recommended redoing the operation every few years.
Modern implants have been tested under very stringent conditions and have a lifetime guarantee. They do not suffer from breathing or from an active lifestyle, and their shell remains as strong as immediately after installation.
Breast reduction
All women want big beautiful breasts. But too large breasts are a serious problem for a woman's health. Patients diagnosed with hypermastia or gigantomastia (very large breasts) experience severe pain in the back and neck, suffer from breathing problems, skeletal deformities and skin irritation. The size and shape of the mammary gland are characterized by lability during a woman’s life and depend on fluctuations in total body weight, hormonal changes in the body, feeding, and age-related changes in the skin.
The desire to improve the shape of the mammary gland, and sometimes get rid of complexes, leads a woman to a plastic surgeon. Heavy, pendulous breasts can cause both physical and psychological suffering. Many patients complain of pain in the thoracic and cervical spine. It is not uncommon to see scar grooves on the shoulders caused by excessive pressure from bra straps. Often women complain of diaper rash in the area of the inframammary folds, which is difficult to treat.
Skin, and sometimes excess fatty tissue, due to which the nipple and areola are raised, and thus a new breast shape is modeled, breast reduction surgery, or reduction mammoplasty, is a more serious intervention on the part of the surgeon. During the operation, excess glandular tissue and subcutaneous fatty tissue are partially removed, and mammary glands of a new size and shape are formed.
The prosthesis interferes with breastfeeding
There are two misconceptions about this topic:
- the contents of the prosthesis may pass into breast milk;
- During the operation, the ducts of the mammary gland are damaged.
A correctly installed implant cannot interfere with breastfeeding. It is placed under the gland tissue or under the pectoral muscle, is completely isolated and has no contact with the milk ducts. The filler of the prosthesis is usually represented by a thick silicone gel, which does not leak out of the shell even if it is damaged. Accordingly, it has no chance of getting into milk.
As for the second part of the misconception, such cases rarely happen. Typically, the ducts are affected if the incision is around the areola. The GALAXY Beauty Institute employs professionals in their field, so the risk of such a complication is minimized. In addition, for complete safety, there are alternative approaches: through the fold under the breast or the armpit.
Of course, surgery cannot be performed during lactation, and after installing prostheses, it is recommended to wait at least six months before getting pregnant so that hormonal changes do not affect tissue restoration.
Breast lift or mastopexy
Dresses and blouses with a neckline will become everyday wear; skin mastopexy will allow you to wear a more revealing swimsuit and feel free to go to the beach and pool.
The goal of mastopexy is to create a conical, “elevated” shape of the mammary gland through a combination of transposition of the breast tissue, nipple-areolar complex into the upper parts of the mammary gland, their fixation and excision of excess skin “cover”.
Like any operation, mastopexy has a number of contraindications - for example, less than 1 year has passed since the woman stopped breastfeeding, suffers from tumor diseases of the mammary glands, nodular or diffuse form of mastopathy (however, in this case, the mammologist must decide whether the operation will harm the woman ).
Any severe diseases of internal organs, diseases of the blood coagulation system, diabetes mellitus, any sexually transmitted diseases are an absolute contraindication to mastopexy.
Implants cause breast cancer
In fact, there is no connection between breast cancer and implants. Prostheses are made of biologically inert materials (silicone gels are most often used), which cannot in any way affect the development of cancer cells in tissues. However, this misconception has a completely logical explanation.
First, after mammoplasty, women undergo regular breast examinations, which increases the chances of detecting cancer. Secondly, when there is a dense prosthesis under the tissue, there is a greater chance of finding a suspicious nodule. Because of this, it seems that the cause of cancer was mammoplasty.
IMPORTANT! Regular breast examination is required for all women, regardless of whether they have dentures or not.
Gynecomastia
Gynecomastia is an enlargement of the mammary glands in men due to changes in hormonal levels (for example, as a result of taking any hormonal drugs, steroids, etc.).
Pseudogynecomastia develops with obesity. Fat deposits accumulate in the area of the mammary glands, and forms are formed that are very similar to a female bust, although the mammary glands themselves retain their normal anatomical dimensions, that is, they are reduced.
Gynecomastia and pseudogynecomastia, of course, cause representatives of the stronger sex a lot of psychological difficulties, and the only way to eliminate them is surgery.
We will help solve this problem without pain and using high-tech modern equipment.
The implant may rupture inside the body
This is one of the most popular horror stories regarding breast implants. Allegedly, it may break, which is why a woman is prohibited from:
- fly on airplanes;
- exercise.
Modern third-generation implants, which are used at the GALAXY Beauty Institute, are capable of withstanding enormous loads. They will not tear even if a car drives over them. Accordingly, neither heavy training nor airplane flights can cause the implant to rupture.
Even if, theoretically, the shell was destroyed (for example, by a knife strike or other injury), the contents will remain inside it. Unlike older models, the gel has enough density and memory to allow it to stay in place. Of course, if damaged, the prosthesis is replaced.
Artificial breasts are unnatural in appearance and feel
Some people believe that implants make the bust look like two balloons, others are sure that dentures are easy to identify by touch because they are dense and cold.
In fact, externally enlarged breasts often look much better than real ones, especially if anatomical implants that have a teardrop shape are used. Using computer modeling, doctors at the GALAXY Beauty Institute select the size of the implants so that the shape of the new bust is in perfect harmony with the woman’s physique.
As for the unnatural sensations during palpation, in fact, only a doctor or a person who has repeatedly encountered such busts can identify the implant. The prosthesis heats up from body heat and has the same temperature as it. It is possible to feel its boundaries only in very thin women if the implant is located directly under the mammary gland.
The surgeon can create a bust of any size in one operation
Many people believe that with the help of implants you can create truly huge breasts. In fact, the possibilities of surgery are very limited:
- initial breast size (i.e. amount of skin);
- woman's physique;
- maximum implant sizes.
No doctor can carefully place large implants on the narrow chest of a thin woman: there is not enough space and tissue to hide them. Such a bust will look funny and unnatural. In addition, the maximum possible volume of breast implants is 750-800 ml, depending on the manufacturer.
IMPORTANT! Most often, it is enough for a woman to install implants with a volume of 200-300 ml to be completely satisfied with the result. If you want more, the operation can be performed in several stages, leaving time for the skin to stretch.
Huge scars remain after surgery
This myth is surprisingly tenacious, although the technique of performing mammoplasty has reached unprecedented heights. Many women don’t even want to think about surgery because they are afraid of the terrible scars all over their breasts.
Doctors at the GALAXY Beauty Institute use three types of incisions during mammoplasty:
- in the armpit;
- in the fold under the mammary gland;
- around the areola.
Of the options listed, only access through the areola may be slightly noticeable, but only if you look closely. The surgeon's skill and high-quality suture material ensure excellent wound healing, by the end of which the scar becomes a thin white line.
IMPORTANT! The exception is a rare situation when the body is prone to the formation of keloid scars. In this case, traces of the operation can really be striking.
