Are you thinking about breast augmentation but still doubting?
Are you afraid of the disadvantages of the traditional breast augmentation?
Then the new Preservé™ breast augmentation might be something to consider.
I want a breast augmentation… but I still hesitate
You are not alone. Many women have been contemplating breast augmentation for years but continue to hesitate.
Common concerns we hear every day:
- “What if it looks unnatural?”
- “What about pain, scars and safety?”
- “What if I lose sensation in my breasts?”
- “How do I organise everything practivally with my family, work and social life?”
👉 These doubts are completely normal – and actually show that you want to make the best choice.
What are the biggest fears and concerns about breast augmentation?
Research shows that women considering breast augmentation mainly hesitate for the following reasons:
- Fear of scarring
- Fear of pain
- Fear of losing sensation in the breasts
- Fear of an unnatural or “fake” result — worry about negative reactions from others
- Fear of the risks of surgery and anaesthesia
- Doubts about practical aspects of recovery:
- Taking sick leave and absence from work: how do I explain it to my boss, colleagues, and clients?
- When can I drive again?
- When can I start exercising again?
- How long do I need to keep my social calendar free?
- Who will take care of my family, children or pets during recovery?
What do women really expect from a breast augmentation today?
- Maximum safety: short surgery time — lighter, comfortable anaesthesia — minimal tissue damage and fewer complications
- A natural look
- A small scar
- Little to no pain
- Preservation of breast sensation
- Fast recovery without long sick leave
Preservé™: the woman-friendly breast augmentation that suits you
The new Preservé™ technique was developed from what women truly care about: their wishes, doubts, and need for safety and natural results.
The Preservé™ breast augmentation was born from one essential question:
“How can we create a breast augmentation that is as woman-friendly as possible — safe, refined, and with an elegant and natural result?”
The answer is Preservé™: a woman-friendly breast augmentation technique that translates comfort into:
✔ Respect for your body, lifestyle, and recovery speed — thanks to a less invasive technique and faster healing*
✔ A natural and elegant result
✔ Maximum safety with light, comfortable anaesthesia
✔ Minimal pain and as inconspicuous scars as possible.
How is Preservé™ different from a traditional breast augmentation?
Unlike conventional breast enlargement techniques — which involve cutting through healthy breast tissue, muscle or ligaments — Preservé™ creates the implant pocket by using controlled and gradual tissue expansion, using specialized Preservé™ instruments.
This innovative method:
- Avoids unnecessary damage to healthy tissue
- Preserves natural breast movement
- Reduces post-operative discomfort
- Supports quicker healing
Many patients report a gentler recovery experience compared to standard breast implant procedures.*
