What is Preservé® ?
The Preservé® is an approach of breast augmentation with anatomical preservation, developed for women looking to improve the volume and shape of their breasts through a less traumatic technique focused on preserving natural tissues.
At LMR, Preservé® integrates a contemporary view of breast surgerynatural results, more comfortable recovery and maximum individualisation of the surgical plan.
What makes Preservé® breast augmentation different?
Preservé® is a breast augmentation technique based on the concept of anatomical preservation. Unlike more traditional approaches, this technique endeavours to minimise surgical trauma and preserve ligaments, vessels, nerves and support structures of the breast as much as possible.
The aim is to create a breast augmentation that is more respectful of the natural anatomy, allowing for a recovery that tends to be more comfortable and a result that is more natural to the touch, movement and appearance.
Main benefits of Preservé®
- Anatomical preservationThe technique seeks to preserve important breast structures, reducing tissue damage and respecting the natural anatomy.
- Faster and more comfortable recoveryThe recovery process: because there is less surgical trauma, recovery tends to be simpler, with less pain, less swelling and a quicker return to day-to-day activities.
- Natural resultsThe aim of Preservé® is to create a balanced, proportional and natural result, adapted to each patient's anatomy.
- Modern and personalised techniqueEach surgery is planned individually, taking into account the patient's anatomy, skin quality, tissue thickness, lifestyle and goals.
For whom is it recommended?
Preservé® may be indicated for women who:
- want to increase their breast volume;
- look for a natural result;
- value a more comfortable recovery;
- want to preserve the breast anatomy as much as possible;
- want to improve their body proportion and balance;
- have lost volume after pregnancy, breastfeeding or losing weight.
The indication always depends on the medical assessment made at a consultation in Lisbon, Cascais or Porto.
What's it like realised Preservé®?
Preservé® is performed through a surgical approach to the breast, carefully planned to minimise trauma and preserve important anatomical structures of the breast.
The surgery is usually performed through the breast crease, allowing controlled and precise access for implant placement, with a focus on preserving the natural tissues.
The choice of surgical plan, type of implant and technique always depends on an individualised medical assessment.
What's it like recovery?
Recovery tends to be more comfortable than with more traditional breast augmentation techniques, due to less tissue damage.
In the first few days there may be tension, oedema, moderate discomfort and breast tenderness.
Many patients are able to resume light activities more quickly, although recovery time varies according to each case. The return to physical exercise should always follow medical advice.
What results Can I wait?
The aim of Preservé® is to create:
- a more proportional chest;
- greater fulfilment;
- balanced breast contour;
- natural touch and movement;
- result adapted to the patient's body.
The he final result depends on the initial anatomy, the quality of the tissue, the volume chosen and the individual healing process.
Not all patients are candidates for the same approach. The surgical plan should always be individualised.
Preservé® at the LMR Clinic
At LMR, breast surgery is considered on an individual basis.
The introduction of Preservé® reinforces the pillars that guide LMR's clinical practice: excellence, innovation, security and individualisation.
Rather than following trends, the aim is to integrate approaches that make sense from a medical point of view and that respond to the real needs of today's patients.
At LMR, breast augmentation medical consultations in Lisbon, Cascais and Porto are essential to understand:
- which technique is most appropriate;
- what results can be achieved;
- the ideal surgical plan for each case.
