Breast augmentation with Macrolane

For woman that do not want to go under the surgeon scalpels to increase breast there is now an alternative: breast augmentation with Macrolane. It's a substance (hyaluronic acid), already present in our dermis, that makes skin more elastic and gives shape and consistency, when it decreases wrinkles are formed. Hyaluronic acid also stimulates the production of collagen and fights aging. Usually is used in plastic surgery for mini face lift and for filling empty areas of the skin that have depressions, such as lips, eyes etc.. In our case hyaluronic acid is injected into the breast to pull up the volume of the breast.

Hyaluronic acid is not carcinogenic and could be a good substitute for breast enhancement surgeon operation, but ... The Macrolane (one of the commercial name of hyaluronic acid) is absorbable from the body so it has a limited life. Here is what is its weak point, and the fact that in case of mammography, the radiologist must warn that the substance could be mistaken for a carcinoma.

The Macrolane at best lasts no longer than 18 months and in a year our body absorbe 50% of the new volume generated. As mentioned there are no specific contraindications. The operation lasts one hour and the surgeon uses a syringe to inject hyaluronic acid inside the breast.

There are no scars, and in rare cases are reported light inflammation of the breast. You can leave the clinic soon with breasts bigger than a size. We talk about one size because it is difficult to go beyond, we are not implanting the prosthesis, so there is a physical limit beyond which we can not go. Woman who want more substantial volume of breast must opt for traditional breast enlargement.

Breast augmentation with hyaluronic acid price:
for sure less than a breast surgery but not cheap. For one size more you need 7oz of hyaluronic acid. It costs about 1000 dollars.
