Polytech implants at LaCLINIQUE of Switzerland come with a lifetime guarantee on the implants themselves. B-LITE implants are another option, weighing over 30% less than traditional implants. Implant shape and incision approach are chosen with the plastic surgeon based on anatomy and desired décolleté. Breast augmentation may be performed under local anesthesia without sedation or general anesthesia. Surgery takes place in accredited nursing homes in Lugano, Milan, and Naples, with structured follow-up through the first year.
