Chest implants make it appear more muscular and athletic. Men know it well: workout is not enough! Placing a pectoral implant is then the most effective solution.
Pectoral augmentation, is a surgical procedure designed to add fullness, size, and shape to the male chest. This procedure involves inserting a soft, high-grade, solid silicone implant into a space created under the pectoral muscles. To the touch, it has the feeling and consistency of a flexed muscle.
Living a healthy lifestyle and having a fit and strong-looking body is all the buzz today. Men are feeling the pressure to achieve a more muscular and defined upper body that cannot be achieved through traditional exercises, weightlifting, or diet.
Pectoral implants can help create a more contoured, sculpted, and muscular chest. They can also help restore volume to the chest that may have been lost due to aging, weight loss, or liposuction.
The procedure for male pectoral implants necessitates general anesthesia and entails the insertion of solid silicone implants through a minor incision in the armpit. These implants are secured by the pectoralis muscle, which remains unaffected by the surgery, enabling normal muscle function and exercise post-healing. Unlike breast implants used on women patients, male pec implants are not made with the same softness. In instances where muscle definition is lacking, fat transfer from alternate body areas may be employed to augment the pectoral muscles, offering a potentially more natural outcome compared to artificial implants.
Pectoral implant recovery involves managing pain, swelling, and bruising with medication and a compression garment, with patients typically returning to work in 1-2 weeks and avoiding strenuous activities for 4-6 weeks. Key aftercare instructions include sleeping with your head and shoulders elevated, showering after drain removal (if applicable), and avoiding heavy lifting, sit-ups, and push-ups for several weeks to allow the implants and muscles to heal properly.
Activity & Restrictions
Long-Term Aftercare
Pectoral implants for men consist of solid silicone inserts strategically positioned beneath the chest muscles to augment both the size and definition of the male chest. This approach notably differs from women’s breast implants. Pec implants serve as an excellent choice for men encountering difficulties in developing chest muscles through conventional exercise, or those affected by conditions such as Poland Syndrome. Tailored to suit each individual, these implants are meticulously crafted to achieve a natural and harmonious appearance that complements the body shape. This procedure is commonly carried out by plastic surgeons specializing in male plastic surgery, renowned for their expertise in crafting sculpted and muscular-looking chests.
Since male pectoral implants are made of solid, formed silicone, there is no danger of rupture or silicone leakage as with female breast implants. They do not require replacement during your lifetime. Many of our patients report feeling satisfied with their pectoral implants for 20 years. That said, if you want to enjoy long-lasting results, you must maintain a healthy weight and lifestyle.
The only part of the augmentation you should expect to feel will be your own natural chest muscles. We situate the implants entirely beneath your muscles. Also, the implants will not restrict movement in any way. Any future muscle development will only be enhanced by the pectoral implant underneath.
