Having lived and worked in Vietnam for many years, Laura Baker had always wanted to enhance her breasts to achieve a more balanced and feminine figure. After researching several aesthetic clinics, she chose Kangnam Aesthetic Hospital Hanoi and was personally consulted by MSc. MD Nguyen Manh Cuong (Dr. Galvin Nguyen).
Do you also have naturally small or asymmetrical breasts?
The Kangnam medical team will recommend the breast shape and implant size that best suit your body proportions, personal preferences, and aesthetic goals.
That was the first thing Laura shared during her consultation.
As an expatriate living in Vietnam, Laura was concerned not only about achieving beautiful results but also about patient safety, the surgeon’s qualifications, and the quality of post-operative care.
Her naturally small breasts often made her feel that her body lacked proportion. Many fitted dresses and bikinis she loved did not give her the confidence she desired. Although she had considered breast augmentation for years, she kept postponing the procedure because she was worried about choosing the wrong clinic.
After thoroughly researching different providers, reviewing real patient cases, and seeking recommendations from the expatriate community in Vietnam, Laura decided to visit Kangnam for an in-person consultation.
For Laura, the decision was never based on price—it was based on trust.
During her first consultation, the surgeon carefully evaluated her overall body proportions instead of simply asking how much larger she wanted her breasts to be.
The assessment included:
After reviewing these factors, the surgeon explained why choosing the largest possible implant does not necessarily produce the best outcome.
At Kangnam, the goal is to create breasts that are harmonious with the patient’s overall body proportions while minimizing potential risks associated with implants that are too large for the existing breast tissue. This personalized approach gave Laura confidence in her decision.
Based on Laura’s naturally small breasts and her desire for a fuller yet natural-looking appearance, the surgeon recommended endoscopic breast augmentation with implants.
During the consultation, Laura received detailed explanations about:
Every recommendation was tailored to Laura’s anatomy and personal goals rather than following a one-size-fits-all approach.
Laura’s surgery was performed by MSc. MD Nguyen Manh Cuong (Dr. Galvin Nguyen), Head of the Body Contouring Department at Kangnam Aesthetic Hospital Hanoi, together with an experienced surgical team.
The entire procedure was carried out in a sterile operating room using an endoscopic technique that allows precise creation of the implant pocket while minimizing unnecessary trauma to surrounding tissues.
Following surgery, Laura was closely monitored by the medical team, received detailed post-operative care instructions, and attended scheduled follow-up appointments with her surgeon.
Throughout each stage of recovery, Kangnam’s healthcare team remained available to support her and ensure a smooth healing process.

As her recovery progressed, Laura’s breasts gradually became softer and settled into a natural shape.
What pleased her most was not only the increase in breast volume but also how well the results complemented her overall figure.
Clothes that once made her feel self-conscious now fit more beautifully, giving her greater confidence in both her professional and personal life.
Please note: Individual results vary depending on each patient’s anatomy, tissue characteristics, and adherence to post-operative care instructions.
In addition to aesthetic results, many international patients appreciate their experience at Kangnam because of:
