What is the Preservé Method?
The Preservé method is a specialized surgical approach that aims to preserve breast tissue, blood vessels, and surrounding muscle structures to the highest extent possible during breast implant placement. Compared to traditional techniques, this method aims to treat tissues more gently and minimize unnecessary surgical trauma.
While standard techniques often require wider incisions and more extensive tissue dissection, the Preservé approach ensures:
Less trauma to the tissue,
A faster recovery process,
Safer preservation of the natural anatomical structure.
In this way, the goal is to achieve both more natural aesthetic results and a more comfortable postoperative period for the patient.
Who is the Preservé™ Method Suitable For?
Breast augmentation with the Preservé™ method can be a suitable option for individuals who value natural results, tissue preservation, and postoperative comfort alongside their aesthetic expectations. This technique may be specifically preferred for:
Those considering breast augmentation for the first time: It can provide a more controlled and predictable process during the initial surgical experience.
People desiring a natural appearance: It may be suitable for those aiming for a natural look that harmonizes with their body contours rather than an exaggerated result.
Those wishing to return to daily life quickly: It can be preferred by individuals who do not want to experience long-term pain, mobility restrictions, or an extended break from their daily routine.
Those with minimal scarring expectations: Smaller and more controlled incisions are used during the operation; therefore, efforts are made to reduce the visibility of surgical scars as much as possible.
Those with an active and athletic lifestyle: Since muscles and surrounding tissues are preserved during the procedure, the time to return to physical activities may be shorter.
Advantages of the Preservé Method
The Preservé approach does not only focus on aesthetic results; it is also considered a surgical method that prioritizes patient safety and comfort. The prominent advantages of this technique are as follows:
Tissue Preservation: Nerves, blood vessels, and muscle tissue are preserved as much as possible. This can help reduce the risk of postoperative loss of sensation or damage to tissue integrity.
Less Pain and Faster Recovery: Due to minimal surgical trauma, postoperative pain levels are expected to be lower. Patients can return to their daily activities in a shorter period of time.
Natural Results: While achieving an aesthetic appearance, the goal is to maintain the natural structure of the breast tissue. This can contribute to obtaining more harmonious and natural results.
Long-Term Safety: Maintaining tissue compatibility and reducing the risk of complications can help patients remain satisfied with the results over the long term.
The Surgery Process with Preservé
Unlike standard breast augmentation surgeries, the Preservé method begins with personalized surgical planning that centers on tissue preservation.
Personalized Planning: Every patient’s breast structure, skin elasticity, muscle structure, and tissue characteristics are different. Therefore, a detailed evaluation is performed before the surgery to determine the most suitable surgical plan.
Specialized Surgical Technique: The technique used during implant placement aims for minimum interference with the tissues. In this way, the operation is performed in a more controlled manner by preserving nerves, blood vessels, and muscle tissue.
Tissue-Friendly Approach: The Preservé approach strives to reduce the excessive trauma and pressure that can occur in standard methods. This may result in less postoperative pain, a faster recovery process, and more natural-looking aesthetic results.
How is Breast Augmentation Surgery Performed with the Preservé™ Method?
Breast augmentation surgery with the Preservé™ method is generally performed through a small incision made in the natural fold under the breast. Since this incision is located along the lower line of the breast, it is usually difficult to notice from the outside.
After the incision is made, the area where the implant will be placed is prepared in a controlled and gentle manner without cutting the tissues. The implant is then inserted into the prepared area using a special insertion sleeve. Thanks to this technique, contact between the implant and the skin or surrounding tissues is kept to a minimum. This approach, referred to as “no-touch,” aims to ensure the procedure is performed in a more hygienic and controlled way.
In the Preservé™ method, the implant is mostly placed in front of the breast muscle. Once the implant is positioned, the shape and symmetry of the breast are checked. When the planned appearance is achieved, the incision is carefully closed, and the operation is completed. The entire process proceeds according to an approach that aims to protect the natural appearance and soft tissue structure of the breast.
What is the Difference Between the Preservé™ Method and Classic Breast Aesthetics?
In breast augmentation surgeries, both the Preservé™ method and classic breast aesthetics aim to increase breast volume using implants. However, the fundamental difference between the two methods lies in the surgical approach, the extent of tissue intervention, and the implant placement technique.
In the Preservé™ method, the goal is to avoid damaging the breast tissue and muscle structure as much as possible during the operation. For this reason, the incision is mostly made through the inframammary fold and within a smaller area. In classic breast aesthetics, the incision is generally made in the same region, but the incision size may be larger.
In the Preservé™ method, the area where the implant will be placed is prepared in a controlled manner without cutting or straining the tissues. In classic breast aesthetics, the area for the implant is created using standard surgical methods. At this point, the Preservé approach aims to offer a more tissue-protective method. Thanks to this approach, postoperative pain may be reduced, and the recovery process may progress faster.
In the Preservé™ method, the implant is placed using a special delivery system to ensure minimum contact with the skin and tissues, following the “no-touch” principle. In classic methods, the placement of the implant may vary depending on the technique preferred by the surgeon.
In the Preservé™ technique, the implant is often placed in front of the breast muscle, aiming to protect the muscle tissue. In classic breast aesthetics, the implant can be placed either under the muscle (submuscular) or over the muscle (subglandular).
Frequently Asked Questions
Who is a good candidate for breast augmentation?
What is the difference between Preservé and traditional breast aesthetics?
In traditional methods, more extensive tissue intervention may be required during implant placement. In contrast, the Preservé method aims for implant placement with minimal trauma. This can result in less pain, faster recovery, and more natural results in the long term.
How long does the recovery period take?
Since surgical trauma to the tissues is kept to a minimum in the Preservé method, the recovery process can be shorter compared to traditional surgeries. Many patients can return to their daily lives within a few days, although the full recovery time may vary from person to person.
Is the Preservé method safe?
Yes, the Preservé method was developed as an approach that prioritizes patient safety and tissue compatibility. Thanks to surgical principles aimed at protecting nerve and vascular tissues, the goal is to reduce the risk of complications.
