I would like to know about the hammock for breast implant. I will get a breast implant replacement and the surgeon recommended hammock.
Answer: Internal bra = hammock for the breast If your tissues have thinned over the lower part of the breast, they may not be strong enough to support an implant and conceal rippling. The internal bra is designed to provide support and coverage, and it can be thought of as a hammock for implants. Galaflex mesh and Strattice are commonly used for this.

Answer: Sling This is to keep the breast tissue and implant high so that it doesn't drop again. I recommend an in-office examination as well as a detailed discussion with a surgeon who you are comfortable with. Finally, make sure your surgeon is a Double-Board Certified Plastic Surgeon certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS), a member of the American Society of Plastic Surgery (ASPS), a member of the American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS), and a fellow of the American College of Surgeons (FACS).Best,Dr. DesaiBeverly Hills Institute for Aesthetic Plastic SurgeryHarvard Educated, Beverly Hills & Miami Beach TrainedDouble Board-Certified Beverly Hills Plastic Surgeon

Answer: Hammock for breast implant: what is the purpose of it? Thank you for the good question. Semantics can be confusing; best to clarify with your plastic surgeon to avoid confusion. I think that he may be referring to the use of acellular matrix or biosynthetic mesh to provide additional support for the overlying breast implants. This can be especially helpful when patients are experiencing breast implant displacement problems (such as bottoming out or lateral displacement), possibly with overlying breast tissue/skin that have lost tensile strength.
