volume
Do you know what causes a lack of breast volume and how can you treat it?
Find out in this article.
Typically, female breast growth begins during puberty and reaches its final stage of development between the ages of 17 and 18. This breast growth is related to female hormones, that is, estrogen and progesterone and, therefore, it is possible, during adolescence, to reverse hypomastia through hormonal treatments.
However, most cases of lack of breast volume or hypomastia are due to genetic issues. In these cases, although improvements can be seen with hormonal treatments, the breast may still not develop.
Hypomastia can also happen in cases of women who, due to breastfeeding or a weight loss process, have lost a lot of breast volume.
How to treat lack of chest?
The most effective way to treat hypomastia is through breast augmentation surgery. In this surgery, silicone breast implants of a size compatible with the patient’s goals and body structure are applied. In cases where, in addition to the lack of breast volume, there is also sagging, the indication may not be a breast augmentation, but a mastopexy with prostheses.

Augmentation Mammoplasty: Breast augmentation surgery
Mastopexy: Plastic surgery designed to promote a breast lifting effect

Testimonials from our patients
Dr. Fátima Baptista Fernandes started taking care of me and I am grateful. After aggressive chemotherapy, the skin on my face lacked elasticity and firmness. The wrinkles were very marked. Looking in the mirror became uncomfortable. I'm looking for myself, without the memory of cancer. And Dr. Fátima Baptista Fernandes has been exceptional to me. Walk slowly, don't rush.
I had surgery in February this year. These are fairy hands from Dr. Fátima Baptista Fernandes and the entire team. Thank you all!
Dr. João is one of the best surgeons I know. I speak from experience because a few years ago the Doctor and his wife did a reconstruction on my stomach which was not easy at all and it was impeccable, which is why I always recommend their names. A year ago I took my bedpan to the Clinic for a breast augmentation and it looked spectacular! They are special people. Friendly, accessible and very aware of the work they do. They are excellent professionals.
Dr. Fátima Baptista Fernandes is a doctor who, in addition to being super cheerful and cheerful, is extremely professional with supreme dedication to her patients and their cases. My husband has been a patient of Dr. Fátima for a few years now... She is his doctor of choice and he won't change it!
