Area of Science:

  • Plastic Surgery
  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Medical Imaging

Background:

  • Breast augmentation is a prevalent cosmetic procedure globally.
  • The precise changes in breast shape following dual-plane augmentation using smooth round implants are not fully understood.
  • 3D scanning technology offers a novel method for objective assessment of postoperative outcomes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the trend of breast morphology changes after dual-plane augmentation with smooth round implants.
  • To determine the optimal time point for evaluating postoperative results using 3D scanning.
  • To provide an objective basis for assessing surgical outcomes and follow-up schedules.

Main Methods:

  • Prospective study of patients undergoing dual-plane augmentation with smooth round implants.
  • Utilized 3D scanning technology to measure breast morphology parameters.
  • Key measurements included linear distances, surface distances, breast projection, nipple position, and breast volume at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months post-surgery.

Main Results:

  • Breast height increased, and the medial border interval widened post-surgery.
  • Breast width remained stable from 1 month onward.
  • Breast volume and projection gradually decreased, with nipple position shifting laterally, superiorly, and posteriorly.
  • Morphological parameters stabilized by 6 months post-surgery.

Conclusions:

  • The breast base contour shifts outward and downward, stabilizing within 3 months.
  • Most breast morphological parameters reach a stable state by 6 months post-surgery.
  • Six months is a suitable time point for objective evaluation of the postoperative effect of dual-plane augmentation with smooth round implants.
