The surgery augments small or sagging breasts based on an individual’s figure and proportion to make beautiful breasts.
01Select the proper implants considering the chest circumference, skin texture and current breast volume.
02Perform precise dissection so blood vessels and nerves are not damaged.
03Insert the implants into the right position considering the areola and nipple positions.
Cosmetic surgery and general surgery dept. (ultrasound breast examination)
One-stop management from ultrasound breast examination to operation, recovery and follow-up care.
The system predicts the suitable breast size for the body before the surgery and decides the size of the implants through the simulation
It provides a natural feel and shape like real breasts.
Patients can select a tear drop prosthetic with a suitable size and shape.
The surgery minimizes the scars with minimal incision and takes care of even the smallest scars.
It prevents prosthetic damage and capsular contracture through continuous follow-up care after the breast surgery.

It is classified as smooth type and texture type depending on the material surrounding the implants.
(Only the texture type is produced because the tear drop implants makes the breasts crooked when the implants are not fixed within the breast)
Classification | Smooth surface (smooth type) | Rough surface (texture type) |
---|---|---|
Image | ![]() |
![]() |
Material | Smooth surface | Rough surface from forming fine grooves on the surface of the smooth type |
Surgery features | Secures a large pocket for the surgery so the implants can move within the space | Implants are fixed as it fits perfectly into the pocket during the surgery |
Advantages | Natural movement and feel | Implants are firmly secured to the breast tissue and thus have low possibility of capsular contracture |
Disadvantages | Require massages for at least 6 months to prevent tissue adhesion | Implants can be touched from the surface for small or sagging breasts due to formation of a capsule |
Recommended for | Those with poor breast elasticity Those with soft breasts but not much volume |
Those having breasts with a certain amount of volume Those with breasts difficult to massage due to firm breast tissue or muscles |
The tear drop implants look similar to the breasts with no protruded upper breasts, do not look artificial and have natural volume.
VIEW enables tear drop breast surgery even though the round-shape implants are suitable depending on the patient’s breast condition.
Classification | Tear drop implants | Round-shaped implants |
---|---|---|

Feature | The tear drop implants are for those who desire breasts with smooth upper part and full volume in the lower part | The round-shaped implants are for those who desire a full volume of the entire breast |
Recommended for | Those with short distance between the nipples and the bottom line of the breasts
Those with flat breasts Those with high breasts Those with narrow and insufficient chest Those with sagging breasts |
Those with proper distance between the nipples and the bottom of the breasts
Those with poor upper part of the breasts Those with proper breast height Those with normal chest size Those with sagging breasts |
Classification | Armpit incision | Nipple incision | Under breast incision |

Method | Incise 2 – 4cm of the armpit folds | Incise along the lower part of the nipples | Incise the folds where the breasts naturally fold above the abdomen by 3 – 4cm |
Advantages | Less scars after surgery and a natural look
Preserves senses with no damage around the nipples Quick surgery and recovery |
Easy to secure the space for inserting the implants
Less pain and relatively free arm movement |
Most simple surgery and short surgery time |
Disadvantages | Slight discomfort in arm movement right after the surgery | Impossible to perform on small nipples | Visible scars when lying down |
It is good to receive the surgery from medical specialists with a lot of clinical experience and familiar with endoscopic surgery because the protruded part should be facing forward while inserting the tear drop implants via armpit incision.
VIEW clinic’s medical staff can perform the tear drop breast surgery through armpit incision with accurate understanding of implants and extensive know-how in surgeries. They can perform a precise surgery by securing a wide field of vision through the endoscope.
The surgery method depending on the prosthetic position includes prosthetic insertion above the pectoralis major muscle, beneath the mammary gland, and dual plane above and beneath the muscle.
Classification | Insertion below the muscle | Dual plane (dual-layered breast augmentation) |
Insertion below the mammary gland |
---|---|---|---|

![]() |
Method | Prosthetic insertion beneath the chest muscle called the pectoralis major muscle | Place 2/3 of the prosthetic beneath the chest muscle and 1/3 above the chest muscle | Insert the prosthetic right beneath the chest tissues above the pectoralis major muscle |
Advantages | The most preferred method for a natural feel and a tear drop shape | Prevents breasts with double lines where dual-layered lines form | Simple surgery with less pain without muscle expansion |
Disadvantages | Pain due to the expansion of the breast tissues and muscles and relatively long recovery period | A difficult surgery that may cause side effects if performed by an inexperienced medical specialist | Not performed much due to the possibility of capsular contracture |
(partner medical institution)
Breast surgery with functional and aesthetic aspects from the cooperation between cosmetic and general surgeons (breast diagnosis)
Customized surgery considering physical features like height, chest circumference and extent of sagging
The anesthesiologist participates in the entire surgery process including surgery planning and performing the surgery to ensure safety
The anesthesiologist resides in the hospital for real-time monitoring until the patient regains their consciousness
Elasticity recovery and recovery management by the dedicated department
Manages scars after surgery and prevents capsular contracture
• Please be careful because common complications like bleeding, infection and inflammation after the surgery varies by patient.
