A Gentle Approach to Breast Augmentation

What is Preservation Breast Surgery?

Preservation Breast Surgery is a breakthrough in breast augmentation that minimizes trauma to the breast tissue. This technique uses specialized tools and approaches that avoid cutting or damaging the breast fascia, the connective tissue that supports the breast. It also minimizes disruption to the pectoral muscles, reducing bleeding, bruising, and the risk of complications like animation deformity, where the implant moves when the chest muscles contract. By preserving these important structures, patients experience a faster recovery and less post-surgical pain. This makes Preservation Breast Surgery ideal for athletes or anyone looking to resume physical activity quickly.

Dr. Gould uses specialized instruments and refined surgical techniques that allow the implant to be placed through a smaller incision, often with less trauma to the surrounding tissues. The pectoralis muscle is preserved as much as possible, which reduces common post-operative issues like bruising, bleeding, and animation deformity, a condition where implants visibly move with muscle contraction. This is still a breast augmentation procedure that uses implants. What sets it apart is the thoughtful, meticulous way the procedure is done, focusing on minimizing tissue damage and promoting a smoother recovery. Because the muscle and fascia are largely preserved, patients typically experience less discomfort, faster healing, and an earlier return to physical activity, making this technique especially appealing to athletes, fitness enthusiasts, and anyone who wants a quicker, more comfortable recovery.

Understanding Your Journey

The Preservation Breast Surgery Procedure

Embarking on the path of Preservation Breast Surgery is a collaborative and personalized experience. Here’s what you can anticipate:

1. Personalized Consultation: Dr. Daniel Gould will engage with you to understand your aesthetic aspirations, assess your anatomy, and discuss the nuances of the Preservation technique. This ensures a tailored surgical plan that aligns with your goals.
2. Minimally Invasive Procedure: Utilizing state-of-the-art Motiva implants, the surgery involves small incisions, often as minimal as 2 cm, strategically placed lateral to the nipple or within the breast crease. These discreet incisions resemble minor marks, akin to a mole removal or liposuction entry point, resulting in minimal visible scarring.
3. Above-the-Muscle Placement: By positioning the implant in the subglandular or subfascial plane, we preserve the integrity and function of the pectoral muscle. This approach not only maintains muscle strength but also reduces the risk of animation deformities and capsular contracture.
4. Advanced Implant Technology: Motiva implants are designed with a TrueMonobloc® structure, allowing for insertion through smaller incisions while providing a natural look and feel.
5. Enhanced Structural Support: Preserving the lower breast folds during surgery helps maintain the breast’s natural support system, reducing the likelihood of implant displacement or “bottoming out” over time. This ensures long-lasting, aesthetically pleasing results.
