Breast Augmentation with Implants in Youthconnection Hanover

Youthconnection in Hannover offers breast augmentation with implants as an individualized aesthetic breast surgery designed to increase breast volume while creating proportions that fit the patient’s anatomy, body shape, and desired appearance. The procedure is particularly suitable for women who consider their breasts too small, have lost volume after pregnancy, breastfeeding, or weight loss, or want to improve naturally occurring asymmetry. Breast growth must be completed before surgery. Treatment begins with an extensive consultation with a specialist in plastic and aesthetic Surgery. At Youthconnection, the breast is examined and precisely measured, while the surgeon discusses the desired volume, implant shape and size, surgical access, implant position, and individual anatomical factors. Available implant options include high-quality products from established manufacturers such as Motiva and Mentor, ranging from round and anatomical designs to ergonomic implants like Motiva Ergonomix, which are designed to provide a particularly natural movement and feel. The operation is normally performed under general anesthesia and takes approximately 30-60 minutes, depending on the individual findings and surgical scope. When appropriate, breast augmentation can be combined with procedures such as a minor breast lift or nipple correction. Our clinic commonly uses an approximately 4 cm incision in the inframammary fold, although alternative access through the armpit or areola may be considered depending on the individual case. Implant placement is selected based on the patient’s anatomy and desired result and may be positioned above or below the pectoral muscle. A distinctive part of our approach is the use of the Keller Funnel for implant insertion. This specialized insertion aid allows the implant to be introduced through a smaller incision while minimizing direct contact with the skin and reducing mechanical manipulation of the implant. During the procedure, careful hemostasis and precise preparation of the implant pocket are performed, which means drains are generally not required. The incision is closed with self-dissolving sutures, avoiding the need for later suture removal. The procedure is performed by Youthconnection’s plastic and aesthetic surgeons, Dr. Nina Duckstein and Marc Eck, who focus on breast surgery and report performing more than 200 breast operations per year together. The clinic also emphasizes continuity of care, with the surgeon conducting the consultation remaining the patient’s principal contact before, during, and after surgery. The operation is performed jointly by the two specialists, incorporating a four-eyes principle during the final assessment of bleeding, implant position, and pocket formation. After surgery, patients generally stay overnight for observation and receive an implant pass on discharge. Drains are usually unnecessary; showering is permitted immediately, and a supportive compression bra is generally worn for about 4 weeks. Patients may typically be socially presentable after about two days, return to work after about one week, and resume sports after about four to six weeks, depending on recovery and the specific procedure.
