For many men, achieving a well-defined, muscular chest can be difficult—even with consistent exercise and strength training. In some cases, genetics or body composition make it challenging to build volume in the pectoral area.
Pectoral implant surgery is a specialized procedure designed to increase chest definition using textured, cohesive silicone gel implants that hold their shape and deliver natural-looking, long-lasting results.
🛠️ What Does the Procedure Involve?
Dr. Roberto Segovia performs the procedure using a transaxillary approach—meaning the incision is made in the armpit, leaving minimal visible scarring.
- Implant Type: High-cohesion silicone gel
- Incision location: Through the armpit
- Surgery duration: 1 to 2 hours
- Anesthesia: Performed under sedation, reducing anesthetic risk
- Hospitalization: Outpatient surgery—you go home the same day
The goal is to enhance volume and shape in a way that looks both natural and masculine, perfectly complementing your physique.
Possible Risks and Side Effects
As with any surgical procedure, pectoral augmentation may include some potential risks:
- Swelling and bruising (hematomas)
- Infection
- Implant displacement
- Asymmetry in final results
Dr. Segovia takes all precautions to minimize these risks and ensure optimal outcomes.
Recovery and Aftercare
- First 7 days: Complete rest is recommended
- After 1 week: Return to light daily activities
- After 6 weeks: Resume intense physical activity, including sports or upper body training
Wearing a compression garment and following Dr. Segovia’s aftercare instructions will support a smooth recovery and implant stability.
Results and Satisfaction
Pectoral implants deliver noticeable, satisfying results that can improve self-image and give patients the appearance of strength and symmetry. For many men, it provides the finishing touch to their fitness journey or helps address underdeveloped chest muscles.
