Breast sagging is a common concern for many women as they age, experience significant weight ,or post pregnancy and breastfeeding. The natural change in the breasts’ appearance can be due to the loosening of the skin and weakening of the internal structures that support the breast tissue.

A breast lift with the innovative GalaFLEX mesh internal bra can help to address this concern by providing long lasting internal support to the breast tissue.

What is the GalaFLEX Mesh Internal Bra?

The GalaFLEX mesh internal bra is a cutting-edge innovation in breast lift surgery. Commonly referred to as an internal bra, this mesh is made from a biocompatible material designed to integrate with the body’s natural tissues. It functions similarly to an external bra but from within, offering permanent structural support to the breast tissue.

The GalaFLEX mesh helps combat the inevitable effects of ageing, gravity, and weight fluctuations, which can cause breasts to sag over time. The mesh is placed inside the breast during surgery to maintain the breast shape and position, ensuring that the breasts remain lifted long after the procedure.

This internal support system reduces the need for ongoing external garments like bras to maintain the lift, enhancing both comfort and aesthetics.

The GalaFLEX internal bra also offers a unique solution for patients undergoing breast augmentations and breast reductions. It enhances the longevity of results by providing additional support, ensuring they remain in an optimal position over the years.

Benefits of GalaFLEX Mesh Internal Bra

  • Longevity of Results: While traditional breast lifts may eventually succumb to the forces of gravity, the internal bra technique provides ongoing support that helps keep your breasts lifted and youthful for many years.
    The GalaFLEX mesh works by supporting the structure of the breast tissue, preventing the sagging or drooping that can occur over time.
  • Natural Look and Feel: Patients undergoing a GalaFLEX mesh breast lift procedure can expect a natural look and feel to their breasts. The mesh Is soft and Integrates with the internal tissue resulting in natural appearing and looking breasts.
  • Reduced Strain on Skin and Tissues: Unlike traditional breast lift procedures, where the skin is heavily relied upon to hold the breast in place, the internal bra mesh provides an internal foundation of support. This reduces the strain on the skin and surrounding tissues, allowing for a more comfortable recovery.
  • Comfortable Healing and Reduced Recovery Time: With the support of the internal mesh, patients often experience a smoother and more comfortable recovery process. The GalaFLEX mesh internal bra reduces the stress placed on healing tissues, potentially shortening the recovery time and allowing patients to return to their daily activities with greater ease.

Potential Risks of GalaFLEX Mesh Internal Bra

As with any surgical procedure, The insertion of an internal mesh carries some potential risks, though they are relatively low when performed by highly skilled surgeons. Potential risks include:

  • Infection: Like any foreign material, there is a small risk of infection after surgery. However, the mesh is made from a biocompatible material designed to integrate with your natural tissue, significantly reducing this risk.
  • Allergic Reactions: Although rare, some patients may have an allergic reaction to the mesh material.
  • Mesh Displacement: In very rare cases, the mesh may shift from its original position, which could affect the overall result. However, this risk is minimised when the procedure is performed by an experienced surgeon.

At HR Plastic Surgery, our team takes every precaution to ensure the safety and well-being of our patients, minimising these risks.

The Procedure

The procedure is performed under general anaesthetic and involves the following steps:

  1. Incision: Your surgeon will begin by making a discreet incision to access the breast tissue. The placement of this incision will be carefully chosen to ensure minimal visible scarring post-surgery.
  2. Positioning of GalaFLEX Mesh: Once the reshaping and lifting of the breast tissue is completed, the GalaFLEX mesh is placed around the breast tissue and secured to fold under the breast beneath the skin. This placement is designed to lift and support the breast from within, providing the desired lifted effect. The mesh will act as an internal framework, supporting the breasts long after surgery.
  3. Incision Closure: Finally, the incision will be closed with precision to minimise scarring and ensure a smooth recovery.

FAQs

The internal mesh is gradually absorbed over the course of a year as it is replaced by collagen, the bodies natural support tissue. The mesh acts as a scaffold to guide the laying down of the collagen fibres in an ordered and structured pattern to support the breast tissue. The mesh works with both natural breast tissue and breasts with implants, ensuring long-term outcomes.

An internal bra mesh, like GalaFLEX, supports the breast tissue from within, acting as an internal structure to lift and hold the breast in place. It mimics the function of a supportive bra, providing a more natural and long-lasting lift compared to external garments. This technique can be beneficial for patients undergoing breast augmentation, breast reductions, or any type of cosmetic breast surgery to maintain optimal breast shape and position.

Yes, the GalaFLEX internal bra has been widely tested and is considered safe for use in breast surgery. The mesh is made from biocompatible material that gradually integrates with your natural breast tissue, promoting healing while offering structural support. Whether used alongside a breast implant or in procedures like breast augmentation or breast reduction, it provides a secure and reliable option for long-term results.

The longevity of an internal bra mesh lift varies, but many patients report lasting results for over a decade. The mesh helps maintain the breast shape and breast position, reducing the likelihood of sagging over time.

While the GalaFLEX internal bra provides excellent support from within, some patients may still choose to wear a supportive bra for additional comfort or aesthetic reasons. However, many find they no longer need a push-up bra after internal bra surgery due to the built-in support offered by the mesh, particularly after procedures involving breast augmentation or breast reductions.
