Learn the key differences between Preservé™ and classic breast augmentation techniques – focusing on recovery, scars, and natural results.
Preservé™ vs Classic Breast Augmentation
We compare both approaches in terms of technique, scars, recovery, and natural look. Final planning should always be made through consultation with your surgeon.
What is Preservé?
Preservé is a tissue-preserving, minimally traumatic breast augmentation technique aiming to maintain vascular and nerve integrity. The goal: a more natural appearance, softer feel, and in many cases faster recovery.
Respectful surgical planning for tissue and nerves
Aesthetic sutures and appropriate incision choice
Targeting less pain and swelling
Ligament Preservation: Natural Movement & Implant Stability
In Preservé, special attention is paid to preserving the ligaments that attach the breast tissue to the chest wall. This allows the breast to move more naturally and harmoniously with the chest.
Preserved ligaments reduce the risk of implant downward or lateral displacement and create a natural “support cage” effect around the implant, increasing stability. This helps prevent the implant from being easily felt from the outside.
What is Classic Breast Augmentation?
A widely practiced and long-accepted technique. Performed under general anesthesia, with implants usually placed through inframammary or periareolar incisions. Recovery generally takes 1–2 weeks, with return to sports after 6–8 weeks.
Preservé vs Classic: Comparison
| Aspect | Preservé™ | Classic Method |
|---|---|---|
| Surgical Approach | Tissue & nerve-preserving, minimal trauma | More invasive; greater tissue intervention |
| Ligament Preservation | Ligaments mostly preserved; natural movement & stability | Ligaments usually not preserved; higher trauma risk |
| Scars | Often less visible and more aesthetic | Inframammary/periareolar incision; scars may be more visible |
| Recovery | Potentially faster return to daily life | 1–2 weeks recovery; return to sports in 6–8 weeks |
| Feel & Naturalness | Aiming for a softer, more natural breast feel | Some patients may experience a fuller/artificial feel |
| Anesthesia | Varies by case (surgeon’s decision) | Usually general anesthesia |
