Breast Augmentation in Thailand at Rattinan Medical Center

Breast augmentation techniques are varied and can be tailored to meet individual needs. At Rattinan Medical Center, there are four main techniques available:

• Subglandular Placement: This technique involves placing the silicone implant above the muscle.
• Submuscular Placement: Here, the implant is placed beneath the muscle.
• Dual Plane Placement: This method involves positioning the implant between the muscle layers.
• Hybrid Placement: Combines silicone implants with autologous fat transfer.
  Additionally, some cases may only require fat transfer, depending on the patient’s desires and the surgeon’s recommendation.

Silicone breast implants come in three primary shapes to cater to different aesthetic needs and body types:

• Round Shape: Ideal for those with flat chests, sagging breasts, or those who already have some breast tissue but want to enhance fullness. Round implants help create a beautifully symmetrical and voluminous look.
• Teardrop Shape (Anatomical): Best suited for individuals with less natural breast tissue who desire a more natural-looking enhancement. Teardrop implants mimic the natural slope of the breast, providing a subtle and gradual contour.
• Ergonomix (Motiva’s Round-to-Teardrop Shape): These implants are made with a highly flexible gel that adapts to the body’s movements, offering a natural appearance under various conditions. This design shifts between round and teardrop shapes depending on body position, aligning with natural breast dynamics.

The surface texture of silicone breast implants can significantly affect both the feel and the behavior of the implant within the body. At Rattinan Medical Center, we offer three main types of implant textures:

• Smooth Surface: These implants have a slick, smooth exterior which is soft to the touch, providing a natural look and movement. They are typically less likely to be felt through the skin.
• Textured Surface: This type of implant has a rougher surface that helps to anchor it within the breast tissue, potentially reducing the risk of implant movement and capsular contracture (scar tissue forming around the implant).
• Nano Textured Surface (sometimes called Microtexture or Velvet Surface): Representing a balance between smooth and traditional textured surfaces, these implants are designed to minimize complications like capsular contracture while maintaining a natural softness and appearance. This newer technology offers a subtle texturing that aims to combine the best features of both other types.

Each silicone implant brand might incorporate different technologies and terms such as Siltex Micro, SmoothSilk, or SilkSurface to describe their specific texturing methods. These innovations continue to evolve, offering more tailored and effective solutions for breast augmentation.

For breast augmentation surgery, the incisions can typically be placed in one of three areas: under the breast (inframammary), under the armpit (transaxillary), or around the nipple (periareolar). At Rattinan Medical Center, our surgeons prefer the inframammary approach (under the breast) for several reasons:

• Minimal Visibility: The incision under the breast crease tends to be less visible, as it is concealed by the natural fold of the breast.
• Less Discomfort: This method generally involves less pain during the recovery process compared to other incision sites.
• Faster Recovery: Patients often experience a quicker recovery period with the inframammary approach.
• Better Scar Management: The location allows for more effective management and healing of the scar, as it is naturally hidden and less subject to movement.

Our choice of incision technique focuses on achieving optimal results with minimal discomfort and downtime, ensuring that the surgical scars are as inconspicuous as possible.
