Hello! I am Toshiyuki Saiga, Director of Bianca Clinic's Ginza Branch.

During breast augmentation counseling, we are often asked, “Are breast implants visually noticeable?” I am worried about the shape of my breast implants and the scars that will appear on my breasts. Many people are concerned about whether their breast implants will be "revealed" on the Internet, as there is a lot of talk about how to tell the difference between breast implants and breast implants.

However, breast augmentation has evolved remarkably in recent years, and it is now possible to achieve the ideal breast size while looking and feeling like the real thing. In this issue, a cosmetic surgeon answers the concerns and questions about the appearance of breast augmentation for those in their 20s, 40s, and 50s or older who are considering breast augmentation.

What do breast implants look like that are easy to detect? Characteristics Explained

In conclusion, by selecting the appropriate surgical technique and physician, it is unlikely that "the appearance of breast augmentation will be immediately apparent. However, the following characteristics may cause people to notice that you have had breast augmentation.

Scars on the side of the body

For silicone bag breast augmentation and fat injection breast augmentation, incisions are made along the creases of the armpits to make the scars as inconspicuous as possible. Redness and scarring will occur for a short time after surgery, but generally become less noticeable over several months. If the patient's arms are naturally down, the possibility of being noticed by others is quite small. However, if the scars are seen at close range while they are still noticeable, it can be an opportunity for people to notice the breast augmentation.

Unbalanced body shape and bust

Many people yearn for a slender figure with large breasts. However, if the pursuit of size is pursued too far, the breasts alone may stand out, and depending on the body type, the entire body silhouette may look unnatural.

Unnaturalness when lying on one's back

With silicone bag breast implants, depending on the type of silicone implant inserted, the breasts may not flow to the sides when lying on their backs and remain raised in a bowl shape. In some cases, the unnatural appearance of the breast implants can lead to the breast implants being revealed by partners and others.

The shape of the valley is Y-shaped

In the case of natural breasts, the tissue is gently connected from the décolleté to the cleavage, and when the breasts are gathered together, the line is smoothly formed in a single shade, like an "I-shape. However, in some cases, when breasts with silicone implants are inserted, the shape of the cleavage appears Y-shaped when the breasts are gathered together. This is caused by the silicone implants pushing against each other in the center, causing the fat in the upper part of the breast to be pushed outward.

Breasts with breast implants glow in the light.

Some of you may have seen or heard on TV or social networking sites that when you shine a light on your breast implants, they glow. Breast augmentation silicone bags are made of highly transparent material, so if the skin is thin or the bags are placed in a shallow position, they may glow faintly when exposed to strong light, such as LED light, due to reflection or transmission. However, this situation rarely occurs in daily life. In addition, an increasing number of high-quality implants are designed to be less prone to such transmissions.

What if I want my breast implants to look beautiful and natural?

To prevent the appearance of breast augmentation from being immediately apparent, it is important to keep the following points in mind.

Selecting silicone and surgical techniques with naturalness in mind

To avoid unnaturalness in breast augmentation, it is best to choose high-quality silicone implants that easily blend in shape with your body position. The position of the silicone insertion is also important, and choosing the subpectoral or pectoralis major fascia method will help to prevent the contours of the bag from being raised and will help to create a more natural movement. At Bianca, we select the most natural insertion position and silicone implant based on the thickness of the breasts, the bone structure, and the condition of the skin.

How to "put it in" to prevent the valley from becoming Y-shaped

If the type and size of silicone bag is chosen, the position of the bag, and the technique used are appropriate, it is possible to maintain a natural I-shape when the breasts are gathered. In particular, patients with little fat around the breasts tend to have the silicone bags accentuate their shape when they lie on their backs, making them look unnatural.

In such cases, combining silicone bag augmentation with condense rich fat injection augmentation, as in the case of hybrid breast augmentation, compensates for the smoothness of the surface and makes it easier to create a natural silhouette.

Physician's skill in making side scars less noticeable.

The visibility of scars on the sides of breast augmentation depends on the skill of the physician, the choice of technique, and postoperative care. For example, the Preservé™ procedure offered at Bianca Clinic is a minimally invasive silicone bag breast augmentation that preserves as much breast structure as possible. The procedure is characterized by small scars and minimal downtime, as the specialized silicone implants are inserted through a small incision. Furthermore, the scars become much less noticeable over time due to the careful positioning of the incision, suturing, and postoperative follow-up.

Breast augmentation that captures the balance of the whole body and enhances style.

If the bust is made too large, it can make the whole body look fat. What is important is to consider how to make the bust look naturally larger and more attractive. By adjusting the position and roundness of the bust and the line from the décolleté, it is possible to create the impression of a bust that is larger than its actual size.

Bianca Clinic employs physicians skilled in fat injection and liposuction techniques, and in fat injection breast augmentation, fat is harvested and injected in a precise design based on anatomy. The clinic is characterized by offering procedures that are not simply based on the concept of "breast enlargement" or "body slimming," but rather on the balance of the entire body.

 BIANCA CLINIC 3 breast augmentation procedures are chosen for their "natural look and feel".

Let us introduce you to three types of breast augmentation procedures at Bianca Clinic that are especially chosen by those who value a natural look.

Preserve (silicone bag breast augmentation)

Preservé™" is the latest breast augmentation technique that uses silicone implants to create a natural breast line while preserving as much of your own breast tissue as possible. A 2.5cm incision is made under the breast, a special balloon is used to gently create space, and the implant is placed under the mammary gland. The implants are then placed under the mammary glands. The patient will feel that the breast implants look and feel natural.

The silicone implants used are MOTIVA's "Smooth Silk Ergonomics 2®," which are soft, stable, and naturally sway when moved, so that even a 2-cup increase in size will not be unnatural and will feel almost realistic. I have also obtained the "Preserve Course Completion Doctor" certification, which is only granted to doctors who meet certain standards. If you are concerned about this, please feel free to consult me.

Condense Rich Fat Injection Breast Augmentation

Condense Rich Fat Injection Breast Augmentation is a method in which fat is harvested from your own abdomen or thighs, impurities are removed, and only carefully selected fat is extracted and injected into the breasts. The fat retention rate is high, and the look, movement, and feel of the breasts are so natural that some people are surprised to hear, "Is this breast augmentation? Some people are surprised at the natural look, movement, and feel of the breasts.

We can also help resolve concerns about the appearance and shape of so-called "separated breasts," "drooping breasts," and left-right discrepancies through our fine-tuned design capabilities. In addition, the liposuctioned area becomes slimmer, which is a great advantage to have a beautiful body line and breast augmentation at the same time.

Bianca values the concept of "Body Contouring," which emphasizes healthy, balanced body lines and smooth skin texture. Those who wish to naturally and beautifully adjust the silhouette of not only their breasts but also their entire body should consider this.

Hybrid breast augmentation (silicone + condense rich fat injection)

This is a “best of both worlds” breast augmentation in which the silicone implants are covered with Condense Rich Fat (CRF) made from your own fat. While the silicone implants provide firm volume, the CRF adjusts the texture, so a natural look and feel can be expected. It is especially suited for patients who have a thin build and who find that the shape of the silicone bag rises up when they lie on their backs.

Bianca Clinic's breast augmentation can address not only the natural look and feel and ideal size, but also shape and overall body line concerns such as left-right differences. First, please tell us about your ideals and concerns during your consultation.
