WHAT DOES THE SCAR LOOK LIKE AFTER A BREAST AUGMENTATION?

Will the scar stand out? Where will the scar be located?

The scar of a breast augmentation will usually be in the breast fold (bottom of the breast). As a result, it is already less visible.

In most cases, the scar heals without any problems. In this context, we once again emphasize the importance of the (included) post-op checks. If we follow it up properly, we can quickly intervene in the event of a deviating cure.

After about 1 year, the scar will have faded into an almost invisible, thin, skin-colored line.

The latest types of prostheses that we use here are also highly compressible (without risk of rupture), so that a smaller incision (cut) is sufficient, the so-called "Minimally Invasive Breast Implant Surgery". 

A smaller incision means a smaller scar.

See below some examples of a scar about 1 year after the breast augmentation, performed by Dr. Nelissen, in the Global Care Clinic.
