The Well-Known Way Towards a Beautiful Breast


If the natural shape of the female breast is regarded as not matching one’s own ideals and is not satisfactory for the woman herself, then a breast enlargement with a breast implant can provide new options. In this, the particular experience of the medical specialists at the Nürnberger Klinik for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery plays an important role. After all, the right proportions are prerequisite for a successful breast enlargement, all the more so since overly large breasts may well constitute a health burden.

Your Breast Enlargement Experts

There are different methods available, both for surgical breast enlargement and in terms of implants. The decision should only be taken after a comprehensive consultation and information at the Nürnberger Klinik for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery. It is important to realise that medicine has made great progress, also for breast enlargement, and that safety, tolerance, compatibility, and longevity of implants are much higher than they used to be only a few years ago.

In our clinic, we also offer the method of sub-fascial breast enlargement. The benefits of this treatment comprise a longer-lasting and natural result. Moreover, this method is considered to be almost painless. Find all information about sub-fascial breast enlargement here.

FAQ on Breast Enlargement with Implants

Who may benefit from a breast enlargement with implants?

If a woman suffers because she perceives the shape of her breasts as inadequate, whether it’s always been the case or after a pregnancy, after breast feeding, or simply because of the influences of natural aging, then she might well consider a breast enlargement in our Nürnberger Klinik for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery. What is of primary importance is that the patient wants to do this of her own volition – not because her partner wants it or because the media build up pressure in this regard.

How do we conduct a breast enlargement with implants?

With regard to a breast enlargement with implants, there are several decisions to take – about the surgical method and the type of implant, its shape and size, and about the position of the implant underneath or on top of the pectoral muscle. All this will be discussed and decided in the course of a personal patient consultation in our Nürnberger Klinik for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery. When conducting a breast enlargement, we use silicone implants with a structured surface, since experience has shown that this significantly reduces the risk for a subsequent induration (capsular fibrosis). The implants may be inserted through a small incision in the breast fold, at the edge of the areola, or via the armpit (axillary incision). The latter approach has the advantage that the breast itself will remain completely scar-free, and the sensitivity of the nipple will not be affected. The operation for breast enlargement itself is rather short and is conducted under general anaesthesia. Experience shows that following the operation, a 1–2 day stay at Nürnberger Klinik for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery is beneficial in the interest of recuperative healing.

What is important following a breast enlargement with implants?

Just like with any other operation, a recuperative phase of rest is to be recommended following a breast enlargement. In particular, you should not be doing any sports, exercise or exertion of any kind for 6 weeks. For 4–6 weeks, a special bra or breast girdle should be worn in order to support and promote healing. We will inform you comprehensively in a detailed personal consultation about any potential risks as well as how we will proceed with our treatment in your individual case. Please feel free to contact us about this.

Which types of implant are there?

We make a general distinction between round and anatomically droplet-shaped breast implants. It is often said that droplet-shaped breast implants make for more natural-looking treatment results. However, the patient’s body proportions play an important role in selecting the right implant, so that also round implants may achieve particularly natural-looking results. As to the surface of the breast implants, there are those with a smooth and those with a structured surface. At the Nürnberger Klinik for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, we use silicone implants with a structured surface.

Where will the scars be after a breast enlargement with implants?

The position of the scars after a breast enlargement with implants depends on the chosen treatment method. At the Nürnberger Klinik for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, we use the axillary incision or the breast fold incision. In case of an axillary incision, the surface of the breast is not operated upon. The scar will later be in the armpit, hidden from view. In case of a breast fold incision, the scar will later be hidden in the breast fold, as the name implies.

What is important before a breast enlargement with implants?

For two weeks before a breast enlargement with implants, no nutritional supplements should be ingested. Also, blood thinning medication, e.g. aspirin, should also not be taken during this period. We advise our patients beforehand and comprehensively in a personal consultation as to what is important before a breast enlargement with implants, and we take into account each patient’s individual life situation in all its facets.

What access options are there in case of breast enlargement with implants?

At the Nürnberger Klinik for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, we use the axillary incision, i.e. the access via the armpit, or the breast fold incision, where the implant is inserted via the breast fold.

When will I be presentable again after a breast enlargement with implants and will be able to do sports?

After a breast enlargement with implants with us in Nuremberg, our patients will be presentable again after about two weeks. Sports, exercise and physical exertion should not be started any earlier than six weeks after the operation, and this start should be very gentle and easy at first.

Will breast implants have to be replaced after a certain time?

Theoretically, the high-quality implants we use at the Nürnberger Klinik for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery can remain in the body for the rest of one’s life. However, after a pregnancy or for various other reasons, many patients want to exchange their breast implants at a certain moment in time. At the Nürnberger Klinik for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, this may in most cases again be done without any problems via an axillary incision.

Is it still possible to breast-feed after a breast enlargement with implants?

Yes, as a rule, it is still possible to breast-feed after a breast enlargement with implants.

When will the final result of a breast enlargement with implants be visible, and how long will it last?

Right after the breast enlargement with implants, the different shape and size of the breasts is already visible. However, the swelling will need some time to recede. This means that the final result will only be visible after about 6 months.

What are the risks connected with a breast enlargement with implants?

Like with any other operation, a breast enlargement with implants also comes with risks such as infections, bleeding, or wound healing issues. Also, a capsular fibrosis, i.e. a rejection of the implant, is among the risks of a breast augmentation. In a personal consultation at the Nürnberger Klinik for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, we provide detailed information to our patients about potential risks of a breast enlargement with implants.

What does capsular fibrosis mean?

In case of a capsular fibrosis, the body will reject the inserted implant, surrounding it with connective tissue. Over time, this may lead to a painful induration (hardening). At the Nürnberger Klinik for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, we use silicone implants with a structured surface, presenting only a small risk of capsular fibrosis.

How much does a breast enlargement with implants cost?

The costs for a breast enlargement with implants in our Nürnberger Klinik for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery start at 6,000 €. We will be happy to prepare an individual cost calculation for your breast augmentation during a personal consultation.
