Internal Bra Technique

Home | Breast | Internal Bra Technique

The internal bra technique at Evolve Plastic Surgery uses a supportive, bioabsorbable scaffold like GalaFLEX to reinforce weakened breast tissue from within. This method corrects sagging, bottoming out, implant malposition, symmastia, and loss of upper-pole fullness, creating longer-lasting lift, improved shape, and more stable results during breast lift, augmentation, or revision.

Get Push-Up Bra Support Built Inside Your Breasts

The internal bra technique strengthens and supports the breast from the inside. Rather than relying solely on skin for structural integrity, this method incorporates a bioabsorbable scaffold, such as GalaFLEX, to reinforce the weakened tissue and create an internal framework. By acting like a supportive sling, it helps maintain breast position and shape, particularly in areas prone to sagging.

As the scaffold integrates, the body gradually replaces it with new, stronger collagen, leaving behind enhanced internal support. This makes the internal bra technique especially beneficial for patients undergoing breast lifts, augmentations, or revision surgeries who want a longer-lasting lift, improved upper-pole fullness, and reduced risk of issues like bottoming out.

Internal Bra Technique Treats:

  • Sagging or drooping breasts resulting from aging, pregnancy, or weight changes
  • Implants that have shifted downward, known as “bottoming out”
  • Weak or stretched breast tissue that cannot support implants long-term
  • Implants sitting too close together, often referred to as symmastia
  • Loss of upper-pole fullness or cleavage over time
  • Reduced breast firmness and shape after previous surgeries or weight loss

Your Internal Bra Surgery Journey: Before, During, and After

Before Internal Bra Surgery

Before undergoing internal bra surgery, you’ll meet with your surgeon for a consultation to discuss your unique goals, evaluate your breast tissue, and determine whether you’re a good candidate. During this visit, your surgeon will review your medical history, take measurements, and create a surgical plan. You’ll receive preparation guidelines, which may include stopping certain medications, arranging time off for recovery, and avoiding smoking.

During Internal Bra Surgery

During internal bra surgery, you’ll be placed under anesthesia. Your surgeon will make carefully planned incisions based on your anatomy and goals. A bioabsorbable scaffold like GalaFLEX is then positioned inside the breast to act as an internal sling, which helps reinforce the weakened tissue or supporting implants. The scaffold is secured to create a stable foundation that mimics the lift of a push-up bra from within. Once the support is in place, your incisions are closed.

After Internal Bra Surgery

After internal bra surgery, you can expect swelling, bruising, and chest tightness as your body adjusts to the new internal support. These side effects can be managed with medication and rest. You’ll be encouraged to wear a supportive surgical bra and avoid strenuous exercise or heavy lifting for several weeks. Most patients return to light activities within a week, but complete healing takes more time. The results continue to evolve over the next months.

Benefits of the GalaFLEX Internal Bra Technique:

  • Creates an internal support system that functions like a built-in push-up bra
  • Helps maintain implant position and prevents issues like bottoming out
  • Reinforces weak or stretched breast tissue for longer-lasting results
  • Gradually integrates with the body and stimulates collagen production
  • Enhances cleavage and upper-pole fullness without relying on larger implants
  • Bioabsorbable material dissolves over time, leaving stronger, more supportive tissue
  • Reduces the likelihood of future corrective or revision surgeries
