Will the implant burst while being examined with a needle?
When external stabbing procedures such as Vacum Assisted Breast Biospy (Mammotome procedure), cell aspiration, and core biopsy are performed, patients cannot help but fear that their implants will be damaged.
At U&U, experienced breast surgeons can perform tests without damage to the implant under ultra-precision ultrasound guidance, and you can rest assured that rupture can be checked immediately using ultrasound.

What is Vacuum Assisted Breast Biopsy (Mammotome procedure)?
Breast biopsy is a procedure commonly called Vacum Assisted Breast Biospy (VABB) and under the guidance of ultrasound images, a needle is inserted into the lesion, a vacuum suction device is used to draw tissue into the needle, and the lesion can be cut and removed using the rotating knife inside the needle. It is used for biopsy purposes, but is also often used to treat benign tumors.

Special features of U&U VABB (Mammotome procedure)
Because the test is performed with a needle, patients who have undergone breast augmentation are afraid that their implants will be damaged.
At U&U, experienced breast surgeons can perform tests without damage to the implant under ultra-precision ultrasound guidance, and you can rest assured that rupture can be checked immediately using ultrasound. It can be performed under sleep anesthesia, and the scar of a VABB (Mammotome) is approximately 8mm, and upon recovery, the scar is almost invisible.

At U&U Plastic Surgery, Dr. Steve Parker, developer of the Mammotome device, a breast biopsy device, is using Encor Ultra, developed by Becton, Dickinson and Company in the United States, to improve the inconvenience of the existing VABB (Mammotome) device.
We are improving the difficulty and inconvenience of breast cancer biopsies, which were only possible through surgical procedures, and contributing to protecting beautiful breasts by reducing patients’ fear of implant damage.
Pre and Postoperative VABB(Mammotome)
가슴성형 전/후별 유앤유 유방생검(맘모톰시술)
Before breast augmentation
VABB (Mammotome) can be performed alone or simultaneously with breast augmentation
After breast augmentation
VABB (Mammotome) procedure is possible without damaging the implant
Who Needs VABB(Mammotome)?
유방생검(맘모톰시술)이 필요한 경우
Changes in size or shape of lesion during monitoring
Family history of breast cancer or personal history of breast cancer
Cases where monitoring is difficult (geopolitical reasons, pregnancy/breast plastic surgery plans)
Symptoms such as touch or pain
If the patient wants the procedure due to anxiety
Treatment of benign tumors
가슴수술 전 유방생검(맘모톰시술) 추천 대상
Treatment of papillomas and nipple discharge
Cases where it is difficult to distinguish between benign and malignant pathological findings as a result of core biopsy
Lesions suspicious for microcalcifications, complex cysts, and papillomas
When core biopsy yields insufficient results
Purpose of diagnosis of inflammatory breast cancer without a clear mass
