There are multiple forms of non invasive breast augmentations such as :

  • The natural boob job. It is the latest method whereby autologous fat cells are transferred from other sites of a woman’s body to her breasts, allowing an increase in a cup size. It involves liposuction of fat from a undesired area and injected into the breast, providing it with a more contoured appearance. It is also considered non invasive as there are no external implants involved.
  • Breast enlargement pumps. The option that is preferred by women who have difficulty taking pills or exercising. It is based on a process called tissue expansion. The suctioning promotes blood flow and stimulates breast tissue growth. This then stretches the skin over the breast allowing more tissue to expand and in return enlarging the breast size. However, it takes up to 3 months before any results are visible.
  • Visual trickery. It is a temporary method to alter the appearance of your breasts. This includes cleavage contouring, involving application of makeup on the chest. Usage of padded bras also enhances the appearance of ones breast. It is also important to wear the correct bra size to prevent sagging and drooping of the breast.

Thread lift is the procedure of choice for for face lift. But in recent times polydioxanone thread lift has been used for the breast lifting procedures. It is less invasive than surgeries, safer and with less pain post procedure.

This procedure is not suitable for all patients.  PDO thread stimulates collagen synthesis under the skin , hence the results are gradual. It acts as an immediate mechanical lift for the breast and also promotes fibrosis and tissue contraction over a period of 4 months. The thread is absorb-able and dissolves over time leaving behind the contraction and fibrosis in its place. This procedure provides support for the breast for up to 2 years and it can be repeated after 2 years with no side effects.

Patient suitability is important for this procedure. A complete medical history and full examination of the breast is necessary to determine the suitability to the procedure.The breast has to be free of lumps, skin changes, tethering of the breast tissue and any other underlying pathology. It is also more suitable with breast size ranging from A – C cup sizes, as the heavier the breast,  the harder the lift will be. Hence, heavier breast are more suitable for surgical augmentation.

Benefits of the breast lift for patients :

  • Instant and long lasting results lasting up to 24 months
  • The procedure stimulates collagen formation and improves tissue elasticity
  • Reduces pore size due to increased collagen tissue formation
  • Stimulates fibroblasts which improves skin texture and tone
  • A quick, relatively easy procedure which has a minimal downtime and discomfort.

The adverse effects to this procedure is that there may be bruising and discomfort. The contraindications for this procedure are patients who have autoimmune diseases, hepatitis C or B, pregnant or breastfeeding, HIV infection, history of keloid formation, previous history of breast implants or breast carcinoma. Its best to speak to a doctor before deciding on which procedure to undergo.
