All you need to know about internal surgery in 925, according to plastic surgeons

A biologically derived absorbency polymer-the same material as certain types of stitch-galaxite can be shaped to look almost like a Demi-Bra of the grid. According to Galaflex, in a period between 18 and 24 months, the scaffold encourages the production of new healthy tissue. This web can be two to four times stronger, which means that “we have much stronger support,” says Van Natta. (Galaflex is refined by the FDA for the restoration of the abdominal hernia in the breasts, its use is considered off-label and Galaflex notes that it has not been cleared or approved for breast use.

Another material surgeon is the invalid skin matrix (ADM), which is obtained from live tissue, generally from a corpse or pig, and then chemically processed or “washed” its cells. New York plastic surgeon David Hidalgo, MDHe says ADM is “felt” in the feeling and acts as a pergola does for flowers. “The scaffold serves as a uterus, which the tissue adheres to,” says Hidalgo. ADM has been used to repair soft tissues for decades and there have been several studies that document its risks and results. However, the FDA has not liquidated or approved ADM for breast reconstruction surgery and advises that patients may be more likely to complications.

Unlike the choice between lace or silk, both types of “tables” must be evaluated differently. ADM has a potential ick factor (as a Los Angeles plastic surgeon Steven Teitelbaum, MDsays, “there is only [about] No one who says, “Oh, put the pig’s skin inside me”) and can be more expensive than Galaflex. Surgeons can also use ADM to help correct the capsule complexity, a potentially painful and distortion of scar tissue accumulation that occurs in about 5 percent of implant surgeries.

One of the disadvantages of both materials is that some thinner patients can sometimes feel it under the skin. However, Teitelbaum finds the galaflex of particular benefits when it makes transsexual breast increases as it helps to lock at the bottom of the implant and has used the substance in some other types of cases. “I didn’t think you need it,” he says it’s an initial thinking. “I thought my patients were so happy. Why would I like to put it on? But then I saw [Van Natta’s] presentation [showing his results with and without it]And I said, “Its long -term results are better than mine. I have to do better. “” Galaflex Lite is a new repetition that is even more flexible and curtain and Van Natta believes it could be a “perfect perfect product” for the neck area.

Even if they are not personal fans, some surgeons see the benefit of ADM and Galaflex. Plastic surgeon beverly hills Garth Fisher, MDHe says, “It may be ideal for some patients and surgeons, but not for me. I believe in my practice and my techniques. The material [can] Add some benefit but [also comes] with some major disadvantages that discourage me from its use. “And by calling anything an” interior bra “can be a stretch.

All surgeons agree that a “internal bra” process is not a lifestyle option, something for those who hope to simply fly all their submarines. The approach could be considered as a possible bonus for a patient who already examines certain types of chest surgery. Van Natta says: “If one does not need a lift, then you would not need galaflex.” Melinda farinaFounder of Plastic Counseling Surgery Beauty Brokers Inc., he says: “I have a lot of young girls coming and it’s like:” I want the inner bra. I never want to wear a bra again. “And I say,” No, no, that’s not what is really about. “
