“Dr. Maercks’s technique is very cutting edge, unique, and makes so much sense.”
Dr. Maercks has developed FEMMA-S, a unique breast reduction technique to achieve aesthetic goals that cannot be addressed conventionally. In this technique, the natural appearance of a supported breast is achieved without an implant. The patient will have beautiful projection and cleavage using nothing but their very own tissue. This method is a result of Dr. Maercks being dissatisfied with conventional techniques for the breast lift procedure, which lift the breast tissue yet leave behind scars and also tend to create an unnatural, flat, and often square-looking appearance.
Dr. Maercks’s FEMMA-S breast reduction technique provides beautiful results with well-hidden scars and an attractive augmented appearance, even in the most ptotic and deflated large breasts. No implants are used in this method — only the natural tissue of the breast. There is also no anchor scar, which many patients don’t want. In addition, FEMMA-S utilizes the sling of the pectoralis major muscle, which provides a great amount of support.
“The techniques Dr. Maercks uses are so special that I barely felt any post-surgery pain.”
Dr. Maercks also a new type of breast augmentation procedure called Cold Subfascial Breast Augmentation©. Also called the “Scarless Breast Lift”, this procedure allows patients with pendulous breasts and flatter, elongated breasts to achieve the appearance of a lifted breast without a scar, as the entire procedure can be performed through a small incision in the armpit.
This technique creates the most natural-looking results, with optimal longevity. Combining art, aesthetic sensibilities, and anatomical knowledge, Dr. Maercks developed this technique to provide supported, long-term control of breast shape and cosmetic appearance. In Cold Subfascial Breast Augmentation, the fascia (a thin layer of strong tissue within the breast) is elevated off the pectoralis major muscle, and the implant is placed inside this strong layer, which acts almost like a bra inside the breast. Not only does placing the implant within the fascia provide extra support; it also allows Dr. Maercks to customize the shape of the breasts to fit the patient’s unique chest wall. Instead of an “implant shape” to the breasts, it appears much more natural and harmonious with the patient’s body. In addition, the unparalleled support holds the implant in place and stops it from putting pressure on the breast tissue and skin.
Cold Subfascial Breast Augmentation truly allows exceptional control compared to other techniques.
Breast augmentation enhances the breasts, bringing a youthful roundness and perky look to your silhouette. But all too often, the augmentation can have an unnatural, obviously altered, “plastic” look, showing that you’ve had plastic surgery and your breasts are fake.
Scars on the breasts. Breast augmentation scars are usually either under the breasts or at the bottom of the areola to the crease below the breast (and/or around the areola). These scars are a telltale sign that work has been done.
With the Maercks Institute technique, there is no scarring on the breast. The skin around your full, round breasts will be smooth and untouched. Instead, there will be a small incision on the armpit fold.
Number Two
A wide separation between breast implants. This is a look that can sometimes be jokingly referred to as “Miami Valley.” The look is artificial and is a dead giveaway of a “boob job.”
At the Maercks Institute, we have a specific pocket design and implant selection. This approach eliminates this issue and gives patients round but more natural breasts that are not easy to detect as augmented. The look we create provides cleavage, a very natural but perky and bouncy effect, and side-boob.
Movement of implants. The way most breast implants are done, you will commonly see the implants move around when you use your pectoral muscles during exercise or intimacy.
You won’t have that problem when having your breast augmentation here at The Maercks Institute. Dr. Maercks inserts the implants in a different plane. He places each implant above the muscle but under the fascia (the sheets of connective tissue under the skin). The fascia acts as an internal bra that is able to hold the implants securely in place. With Dr. Maercks’ approach, you won’t have to worry about your implants moving around when you’re active.
Patients who have implants already placed can have Dr. Maercks reconstruct their pectoral muscles to give them the same excellent results.
