A comprehensive guide

Principle

01

Breast augmentation can be performed in two ways: with silicone implants or with autologous fat (lipofilling). Which method is suitable depends on your anatomical requirements, your aesthetic goals, and the desired volume changes. While implants allow for a clearly defined, permanent volume, autologous fat is particularly suitable for a very natural, soft enhancement with moderate size increase.

Technique: Implants

02

In the implant technique, a silicone implant is inserted through a short, inconspicuous incision under general anesthesia. Depending on the initial situation, the implant is positioned above or below the chest muscle. Shape, size, and position are precisely matched to the existing breast shape and the desired silhouette during the consultation. This method allows for significant enlargement and a very exact definition of the breast shape.

Technique: Autologous fat

03

In lipofilling, the body’s own fat is gently obtained from suitable donor sites such as the abdomen, thighs, or flanks, processed, and then injected into the breast. This method is suitable for patients who desire a gentle, particularly natural enlargement and wish to avoid implants. Part of the transplanted fat heals permanently and leads to a soft, harmonious breast shape.

Preparation

04

Before the procedure, a comprehensive consultation with Dr. Rüegg takes place. Anatomical requirements are assessed, aesthetic goals are discussed, and the appropriate method is determined. With the implant method, shape, size, and incision placement are determined; with lipofilling, possible donor sites are defined. A structured treatment and aftercare plan ensures a safe and smooth process.

Procedure

05

The procedure takes about 1 to 2 hours, depending on the method, and is usually performed under general anesthesia.

  • Implants: The implant is precisely positioned above or below the chest muscle.
  • Autologous fat: The fat is harvested, processed, and injected into the breast in fine layers.

After the operation, you will wear a special support bra for approximately six weeks, which supports healing and stabilizes the shape.

Healing

06

The recovery phase usually lasts one to two weeks. During this time, physical exertion and heavy lifting should be avoided. Sports can be resumed gradually after four to six weeks. The final result appears after a few months, once the tissue has healed and the breast shape has settled naturally.

Result

07

After the healing phase is complete, the final result of the breast augmentation is revealed. Implants offer a clearly defined, permanent volume and precise shaping. Autologous fat leads to a particularly soft and natural breast shape that blends harmoniously into the body. The scars are small and inconspicuous, and modern techniques allow for long-term stable and aesthetic results.

Procedure

Consultation and Planning

To begin, a detailed consultation with PD Dr. med. Eva M. Rüegg takes place.

Dr. Rüegg explains the various methods and helps you choose the optimal one based on your body shape and goals.

01

The Procedure

Breast augmentation is performed under general anesthesia and usually takes 1 to 2 hours. Depending on the chosen method (implants or autologous fat), the procedure is adjusted accordingly.

02

Aftercare & Healing

After breast augmentation, you must wear a special supportive bra for about 6 weeks, which supports the tissue and promotes healing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Here we answer the most important questions regarding breast augmentation.

How do I find out if breast augmentation is suitable for me?

Breast augmentation can be useful in different phases of life – e.g., for genetically small breast volume, after pregnancy, or for age-related loss of volume. During the consultation, Dr. Rüegg will determine with you whether surgery is medically and aesthetically sensible – tailored to your anatomy, your wishes, and your health.

At corrigé luzern, we offer two proven methods:

  • Breast augmentation with implants (silicone)
  • Breast augmentation with autologous fat, i.e., the body’s own fatty tissue


Depending on the desired volume, breast shape, and physical requirements, we will advise you on which method suits you better or whether a combination with a
breast lift is sensible.

As with any surgical procedure, temporary pain is possible. During and immediately after the operation, we provide targeted pain therapy. In the first few days, a feeling of tension may occur, which usually subsides after a few days. With autologous fat treatment, a feeling similar to muscle soreness may occur in the area of liposuction. Compression garments are worn in this zone for six weeks after the procedure. Most patients can resume light activities immediately.

Modern breast implants are very durable. Many manufacturers provide warranties of up to 10 years, but the implants prove themselves for much longer in most patients. The modern generation of silicone implants features a cohesive gel that stays together even in the event of a rupture of the shell. Routine replacement is therefore not necessary as long as no symptoms or changes occur. We would be happy to explain further details during a consultation at our clinic in Lucerne.

Healing after the procedure is individual. Our general recommendations are:

  • Physical rest, especially in the first 1–2 weeks
  • Care according to our instructions, especially in the first 4 weeks
  • Break from sports for 4–6 weeks
  • Final result visible after approx. 6-9 months

We accompany you closely through every phase with follow-up checks and individual advice on the healing process.

The costs depend on the method (implants or autologous fat), the complexity of the procedure, and individual factors.

As part of a personal consultation, we will provide you with an individual cost estimate.

Most health insurance companies only cover the costs in exceptional cases of medical necessity (e.g., malformations or significant asymmetry).

At corrigé, we combine the highest medical quality with an empathetic care concept.

Dr. Rüegg
has many years of experience in breast surgery and has performed successful breast augmentations with silicone implants or autologous fat transplantation for many patients.

Patients from all over Switzerland and abroad appreciate our individual planning, clearly structured processes, and natural, harmonious results.
