System?[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=”340021″ el_class=”reduceTopSpace”]The B.A.G.S. System<\/strong> is a technique developed by Dr. Garcia Ceballos for a specific clinical situation: patients who have a slightly sagging breast and, at the same time, want to gain volume. That is, patients who need both a breast lift<\/strong> (mastopexy) and a breast augmentation<\/strong> (augmentation mammoplasty). <\/p>\n

Until not so long ago, resolving these two needs in the same surgical procedure required the use of techniques with wide scars -in the shape of an “L” around the areola, or in the shape of an “inverted T” or “anchor” on the underside of the breast. These techniques are completely valid and are still necessary in many cases, but they leave scars that can be very visible, especially when an implant is also incorporated, which tightens the skin and can widen them over time. <\/p>\n

The B.A.G.S. System proposes a different approach: taking advantage of the natural elasticity of the skin and reorganizing the internal structure of the breast<\/strong> to achieve the lifting effect without the need for vertical scars. The lift is obtained through a small incision at the upper edge of the areola, and the support that maintains the long-term result is achieved with internal work on the glandular pillars – the natural supports of the breast tissue – and with the appropriate implant. <\/p>\n

\n

B.A.G.S. stands for Breast Anchoring Band Loop Suspension<\/em>, which describes the technical principle of the procedure:<\/span>a system of anchoring and internal suspension of the breast tissue in the form of a loop that supports the breast from the inside, without relying exclusively on skin traction.

System?[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=”340026″ el_class=”reduceTopSpace”]Not all patients are candidates for this technique, and it is important to state this clearly. The B.A.G.S. System is designed for a specific profile, and applying it outside that profile would produce worse results than with alternative techniques. These are the criteria that are evaluated in consultation: <\/p>\n

\n
\n
Criterion 1<\/div>\n
Degree of ptosis<\/div>\n
Grade 1 to 2<\/div>\n

Some sagging of the breast, with descent of the nipple to or slightly below the inframammary fold, but without pronounced descent.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
Criterion 2<\/div>\n
Areolar diameter<\/div>\n
Minimum 3-4 cm<\/div>\n

The hemiperiareolar incision is concealed by the color transition between the areola and the skin. For the scar to be hidden, the areola must be of sufficient size. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
Criterion 3<\/div>\n
Lower pole skin<\/div>\n
No significant excess<\/div>\n

The technique does not contemplate wide resection of inferior skin. If there is a lot of sagging skin under the inframammary fold, vertical or inverted T techniques are more appropriate. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
Criterion 4<\/div>\n
Aesthetic objective<\/div>\n
Elevation + augmentation<\/div>\n

The technique is specifically designed for patients who want both in one surgical procedure. If only elevation or only augmentation is sought, other techniques may be more appropriate. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

In the first consultation, the doctor evaluates these four criteria by physical examination and tells you frankly if you are a candidate for the B.A.G.S. System or if an alternative technique will give you a better result in your particular case. The fundamental criterion is to seek the best result for you, not to apply a particular technique at all costs<\/strong>.

These are excellent techniques and remain the best option for many patients, especially those with advanced ptosis or a lot of sagging skin. The question is not which technique is better in general, but which is better for your particular case<\/strong>. <\/p>\n

The main advantage of the B.A.G.S. System in its patient profile<\/strong> is that it allows for greater volume augmentation without concern for the deterioration of a vertical scar, because there simply is none. This same characteristic means that scar visibility in the long term is less.

The mastopexy pulls the tissues upwards and brings them closer, reducing the cutaneous continent; the implant, simultaneously, expands the content. This combination conditions, in the vertical or inverted T-pattern, a greater probability of widening, hypertrophy or partial dehiscence of the vertical scar, and limits the maximum volume of the implant that can be used with scar safety. <\/p>\n

The B.A.G.S. System proposes to shift the support of the result from the skin envelope to the internal structure of the breast<\/strong>: instead of relying on skin resection and approximation to maintain the elevation, it resorts to a reorganization of the glandular pillars over the implant by means of controlled sutures, which act as an internal suspension system(anchoring band loop<\/em>). The elevation effect on the nipple-areola complex is achieved through a limited superior hemiperiareolar incision, which takes advantage of the cutaneous elasticity without the need for a vertical pattern. <\/p>\n

This combination, in the right patient profile, allows to obtain a mastopexy + augmentation with significantly reduced scars<\/strong> and with a wide volumetric margin<\/strong>, since the implant does not compromise a non-existent vertical scar.
