Pectoral prosthesis surgery
Many men wish to increase the volume of their pectoral muscles but due to their physical constitution they are unable to do so no matter how much they go to the gym. In this case they go to Clínica Sanza in Barcelona to have pectoral prostheses fitted. These implants are made of a material that does not cause an immunological reaction and integrates into the tissues in a natural way.
It is a type of plastic surgery operation for life, the result does not disappear over the years.
Our plastic surgeons at Clínica Sanza, with more than 30 years dedicated exclusively to plastic surgery, advise the patient on what would be best in their case, what would be the correct volume for their physical constitution, bearing in mind that the patient has the last word.
