Minimal-scar Breast Augmentation

"Minimally Invasive Breast Augmentation" is a technique in which, among other things, a smaller incision (about half of the incision in the regular breast augmentation) is made, leaving you with minimal to no scars. Read more about the benefits of this technique and also look at the evolution of a scar after a breast augmentation.

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A FILLER AND A MUSCLE RELAXANT?

Both with a filler and with a muscle relaxant, a substance is injected under the skin ('injectables') to reduce wrinkles. With a filler ("filler") this substance serves to fill something e.g. the nose-lip fold, drooping corners of the mouth, lips, nose,... With a muscle relaxant injection, the injected substance serves to (temporarily) weaken certain muscles, e.g. to soften the frown wrinkle between the eyes, or the crow's feet,.... so not to fill anything up.

Local anaesthesia or general anaesthesia?

Did you know that treatments such as eyelid correction, labia correction, ear correction,... usually performed under local anaesthetic? This way you can undergo the treatment without general anesthesia. How do we proceed? The local anesthetic is applied to the operated body part and ensures that pain signals are not transmitted to the head. As a result, you will not experience and feel any pain during the operation. We usually combine this with sedation. This sedative relaxes you and makes you wonderfully sleepy, but not unconscious. Both procedures under sedation (local anesthesia) and anesthesia are performed in our operating room Would you like more information about anesthesia, sedation and local anesthesia?

Smooth your skin with fillers

With age, deep grooves can form in our skin. But don't worry. These are easy to 'smooth out' by means of fillers. A filler is a filler that is injected to fill the volume in the skin, thereby improving wrinkles, folds and facial contours in a natural way. Fillers restore the youthful, fresh appearance and resilience of the skin by replenishing the substances that are already naturally present in our skin. As you can see in our before/after pictures, they give an immediate improvement. You already look better as soon as the filler is injected. Interested or have any questions? Feel free to send us a message!
