By 2024-10-23No Comments




Hello. I am Shin Dong-jin, the Chief Director of SC301 Clinic.


When I do breast augmentation consultations, Your breast sizeThere are cases where you do not properly know.

It’s like someone thinking they were an A cup but finding out they were actually a B cup, or conversely, thinking they were a B cup but finding out they were an A cup upon accurate measurement.

Most women in Korea perceive their breast size to be small.

So when wearing underwear, a little A tight and stuffy feelingThey also receive it.

Of course, when choosing underwear, you must consider various factors in combination, such as not only cup size but also chest circumference and the distance from the shoulders to the chest.

However, if you at least know your cup size correctly, the likelihood of the cups being too tight or too loose will be reduced.

Today is your own How to accurately measure cup sizeI will let you know.

Here, the upper chest is from the chest The most protruding part, he says.

Next, the deepest part at the bottom of the chest, in other words Measure the circumference of the underbust line where the chest begins.will do.



 


When measuring the size like this, The difference between the upper bust circumference and the underbust circumferenceIf it is 10cm or less, it is an A cup; otherwise, you can increase the cup size by adding 2.5cm.

10~12.5cm is a B cup, 12.5cm~15cm is a C cup, and so on, increasing the size.

To summarize Determining cup size based on the difference between the upper bust circumference and the underbust circumference..

Measuring it this way is Generally accepted worldwideThis is the way it works.

However, when choosing underwear Each brand has its own styleBecause of this, even if they are the same size, you can feel the difference when wearing them.

There may be differences, such as some lingerie brands making the cup sizes slightly larger while others make them slightly smaller.

Differences can also arise due to various factors such as chest circumference and shoulder strap design.

But like this Knowing your cup size and bust circumference in advance will help you choose a more accurate size of underwear. I think




Can I achieve my desired cup size with breast augmentation?




There are various methods available for breast augmentation.

First implantsIt is a surgery using...

However, with breast augmentation using pre-made implants, if you choose an implant that is too large for your body type, it can be very noticeable and look awkward.

Also, breast augmentation with implants is External substanceSince surgery is performed using [this], our body may recognize it as a foreign substance and attack it.

When an immune response occurs like this Old modelThis may occur.

Capsular contracture is the formation of a membrane around the implant; if this membrane thickens, it can cause pain and harden the breast.

If capsular contracture worsens, the implant may eventually need to be removed.

Breast augmentation methods that do not involve inserting external materials include 'Autologous fat grafting' surgery이 있습니다.

Fat grafting is a surgical procedure in which unnecessary excess fat is harvested from areas such as the thighs and abdomen, high-purity fat cells are extracted from this fat, and then transplanted to areas requiring volume.

Fat grafting uses fat cells from one's own body rather than external substances. There is no need to worry about foreign body sensation or immune reactions.

However, simple fat grafting surgery is Graft survival rate In other words, the proportion of transplanted fat cells that survive and settle is significantly low.

In order for fat cells to proliferate while maintaining smooth metabolic activity in the newly transplanted site supply sufficient blood flowYou must receive it.

However, conventional simple fat grafting methods make it difficult to reconstruct blood vessels, creating an environment where fat cells struggle to survive.

Therefore, the survival rate appears low, at around 10–20%.

If the engraftment rate is low, it is difficult to achieve the desired volume, and cell death or necrosis may occur.

There is a risk of side effects if a large amount of fat necrosis occurs.

like this To solve the problem of low engraftment rates, our clinic injects adult stem cells derived from fat mixed with high-purity fat cells in an appropriate ratio. Stem cell fat grafting surgeryProceed withdo.

Stem cell fat grafting?




Adipose-derived adult stem cellsIf transplanted together with fat cells, stem cells in the transplanted tissue Rapidly create blood vesselsdo.

Thanks to this, it becomes possible to supply sufficient blood flow to the fat cells transplanted together. Fat cells perform metabolic functions smoothly and proliferate even in the transplanted area.You can.

In addition to this, because adipose-derived adult stem cells possess self-renewal capabilities and the ability to differentiate into other types of cells, It plays a role in helping to regenerate and repair damaged areas within the body.to do.

Thanks to this, the engraftment rate can be increased by more than three times compared to conventional simple fat grafting.

However, to see results from fat grafting, or even stem cell fat grafting, you must first have enough body fat to increase the desired amount.

In addition, there must be space in the breasts to accommodate that fat and grow to the desired size.

At this institution Increasing the amount of healthy subcutaneous fat and expanding the chest space before surgery 'Pre-management'We are doing that, so you don't have to worry.

If there is enough fat and chest space, Up to two cups In some cases, it has grown larger, and on average, About one to one and a half cups It will get bigger.


While there are some who unconditionally want only 'big breasts,' the current trend in breast augmentation is Size tailored to your body typeIt is.

Breast sizes that do not fit your body type not only look awkward but can also put strain on your body due to the weight of the breasts themselves.

Therefore, I recommend choosing a bust size that fits your body type well and is of an appropriate size.
