Flaccid Breast

Breast surgery that
simultaneously improves
the cause and restores volume

There are a variety of causes for the change
in breast form, and each cause has a distinct
impact on the level of sagging, shape, and
balance of the two breasts. We examine the situation
as it is, precisely determine the reason, and come up
with a workable solution through in-depth consulting.

High-difficulty
surgery,
medical staff are crucial

Breast surgery is a very complex surgery that
takes into account all three aspects: the degree of
tissue reduction, shape, and scarring. Prior to surgery,
accurate diagnosis and planning are necessary,
and they
must be carried out by qualified
medical personnel that
have a wealth of
expertise and knowledge.

Differences in the degree of
sagging breasts according to
the stage of mastoptosis

¹
Normal
breasts

Normal breasts that
do not require

breast surgery.
²
Mild
mastoptosis

If the nipple is at the
level of the
inframammary
fold or about 1cm

lower than it.
³
Moderate
mastoptosis

If the nipple is 1 to 3cm
lower than
the
inframammary fold,
but above
the lower end
of the breast.
⁴
Severe
mastoptosis

when the nipple is
lowered by more than

3cm below the
inframammary fold and

the nipple is completely
downward.

Surgical procedure
for sagging breasts
illustrated by images

Breast augmentation01

If the nipple is positioned higher than the bottom line,
the volume
of the upper breast has vanished, or the
breast sagging is not severe,
the problem can be
solved only by inserting an implant. The problem
of
sagging breasts may be resolved with implants by
restoring
upper breast and overall volume.

Dissection using
FULL HD endoscope
³

⁴
Minimize scarring with
meticulous suturing

Areola incision02

This procedure involves making an incision around
the areola and
removing some breast tissue.
It has the benefit of substantially less
scarring and
nerve damage, and it can decrease not just the skin
but
also the mammary tissue. It can also pull the
nipple into the appropriate
position. This surgical
treatment is an suitable for women who are single
and the degree of breast sagging is not extreme.

the epidermal layer
²

³
After removing
sagging skin and
tissue, suture along
the areola.

Reduce scarring
through areola
sutures.

O-shaped incision03

It is a surgical procedure that makes an O-shaped
incision
from the nipple to the lower crease of the
breast. The sagging nipple
is lifted upward and the
skin on both sides is pulled and sutured
in order to
remove breast tissue, fat, and skin. When the skin
has
lost most of its elasticity or the breasts are
particularly big and sagging,
this procedure is
appropriate.

Individualized
safety type
based on expertise

Air-UNTACT SYSTEM

Implant insertion with minimum air contact

It is a method for properly positioning the implant
with little pressure
and without touching it.
The implant may be placed with
just a little incision,
minimizing bleeding and tissue damage

while also minimizing postoperative pain
and capsular contracture.

4K FULL HD ENDOSCOPE

Precise dissection without damage to blood vessels
and nerves up to the lower chest area

The 4K HD endoscope, which can inspect even
the tiniest blood vessels and nerves,
is used up to
the bottom of the chest to delicately exfoliate only the
exact design area
in order to create a dry pocket
that is the proper shape and size.

360-degree exfoliation is carried out for a beautiful
curvature of the breast
in order to avoid broadening of
the sternum or lowering of the implant.

DUAL-PLANE 3D

Tactile sensation determined by
implant placement and method

In this procedure, the implant is wrapped up
and down by inserting
the upper part beneath
the muscle and the lower half under the fascia.

It is possible to generate a soft feel and a natural
underlining of the
breast even while laying down
with this method, and there is minimal
change in shape.
It also has an incredibly low incidence of
capsular
contracture.

3D VECTRA

3D ultra-high resolution body line scanning
for design prediction

Prior to surgery, we take exact measurements of
each patient's body form,
including breast volume,
nip distance, and asymmetry. Through careful
analysis
of these measurements, the existing body line and
structure are
verified in three dimensions.
By anticipating certain surgical outcomes,
such as
the size you want and implants that fit your body type,

you may evaluate and confirm the matching
breast form in advance.

The best procedure is
one that is safe.

Possession of differentiated
medical technology and
advanced surgical equipment

With 20 years of specialized
knowledge, plastic surgeons,
many of whom are Yonsei University
graduates, provide
individualized
care both before and after 1:1
operation.

Surgical safety
assurance system

The Eight Plastic Surgery Clinic
contains an
uninterruptible
power supply (UPS) that
reliably
delivers energy, dantrolene to

prevent malignant hyperthermia,
and a syringe
pump to regulate
the pace of intravenous infusions.

An air shower system
and
an aseptic
clean room

We remove dust from the body
with a complete
aseptic clean
room system to avoid the entrance

of tiny microorganisms and an
air shower before
entering
the operation room so that we are

aseptically clean when we enter.

⁴

Dual monitoring &
resident anesthesiologists

There is a resident anesthesia
expert who
uses ETCO2
to evaluate breathing during

surgery and continuously
monitors anesthesia.

Program for
postoperative treatment
to accelerate recovery

The kind of operation determines the treatment strategy,
as well as the time, interval, and progress that may be
managed. In order to optimize the advantages of surgery
and minimize side effects, Eight runs a post-surgical
care program for each part.

SCAR MANAGEMENT

In order to limit the amount of scarring after surgery, skin suture tape
and a specific coating agent for bacterial protection are used.
A scar management program appropriate for the healing period,
such as scar laser and vitamin moisturizing management, is used to treat it.

SKIN REGENERATION

It is possible to manage for a variety of reasons by irradiating the
irritated area after surgery with the wavelength and intensity of light
that is appropriate for the therapeutic purpose, such as Heallight
and Smartlook. It is a wise management to do promptly.

SWELLING MANAGEMENT

Using high-frequency equipment, swelling is handled in accordance
with surgical items and individual conditions in order to reduce pain,
swelling, and bruising. It aids in restoring the softness and elasticity
of toughened skin.

BREAST IMPLANT WARRANTY

Implant warranty insurance will be provided to deal with problems
that might occur after surgery. A free revision or reoperation is
provided if an issue arises within a year. For a period of up to ten years,
the implant will be replaced without charge in the event of rupture or
capsular contracture stage 3–4.
