Breast Augmentation

Why Choose Breast Augmentation?

Breast augmentation is among the most sought-after cosmetic surgery procedures available, owing to the variety of techniques and use cases for which it is prescribed. Whether  you are seeking to balance asymmetry between breasts, or restore volume and shape lost over the years, breast augmentation surgery can result in a beautifully contoured bustline and natural appearance. The key is to enhance the patient’s natural beauty, accentuating what patients already have in order to achieve their cosmetic breast enhancement goals.

Like all cosmetic procedures, breast augmentation is a highly individual process, and we have the highest regard for the patient’s desires. Whatever your goals, The Centre works with you to inform and support your process from initial consultation, through the procedure, to recovery, and beyond.

Breast Augmentation Options: Implants and Fat Transfer

Breast augmentation typically involves the strategic placement of implants – either above, below, or partially beneath the chest muscles – to create a balanced silhouette that complements your body structure. For those seeking a more natural route, we also specialize in fat transfer breast augmentation. This innovative technique utilizes your body’s own tissue, relocated from areas with excess fat such as the abdomen, to enrich and shape the bust. This method can be used alone or in conjunction with implants, offering a versatile and personalized enhancement experience.

Benefits of a Breast Augmentation

Breast augmentation, more than just a procedure, is a path to renewed confidence and self-esteem. By enhancing the size and shape of your breasts, this surgery caters to a variety of personal needs and aesthetic desires. Whether you’re seeking to add volume lost due to factors like aging, pregnancy, or significant weight loss, or aiming to achieve a fuller, more balanced bustline, breast augmentation offers a tailored solution.

For many, the procedure is a transformative journey towards reclaiming their body image. It can correct asymmetrical breasts, offering symmetry and a more proportionate silhouette. For those dealing with congenital breast deformities or changes due to injury, breast augmentation provides a reconstructive solution, restoring not just form, but also a sense of normalcy and wellbeing. 

Beyond physical enhancement, the emotional and psychological uplift that comes with achieving your desired appearance cannot be overstated. This journey with us is not just about changing how you look, but also about enhancing how you feel about yourself. With our team’s expertise and your vision, we collaborate to create results that are not just about size, but about harmonizing your body’s proportions and enhancing your natural beauty.

Who is a Good Candidate for Breast Augmentation?

Ideal candidates for breast augmentation are individuals seeking to enhance their body image and boost their self-confidence. You may be a suitable candidate if you are in good physical and mental health, have realistic expectations about the outcomes, and wish to increase the size, improve the symmetry, or restore the volume of your breasts.

Women who have experienced changes in breast size or shape due to pregnancy, breastfeeding, weight fluctuations, or aging often find this procedure particularly beneficial. It’s also suitable for those wanting to correct congenital breast issues or asymmetry.

It’s essential to undergo this procedure for yourself and not to meet someone else’s expectations. A consultation with our expert surgeons will help determine if breast augmentation aligns with your health, body structure, and personal goals.

Types of Breast Implants

Choosing the right breast implant is one of the most important steps in your breast augmentation journey. Implants vary in material, shape, and size, and each option offers unique benefits depending on your goals, anatomy, and lifestyle. At The Centre for Cosmetic Surgery, Dr. Malek and our team will guide you through each choice to ensure your results look natural, feel comfortable, and align with your vision.

Implant Shapes

Implants also come in different shapes, each creating a slightly different profile:

• Teardrop (Shaped) Implants – Tapered at the top and fuller at the bottom for a more natural slope. Because they are made of cohesive gel, they hold their shape but can feel firmer and may look unnatural if they rotate out of position.
• Round Implants – Provide even fullness across the breast, with no risk of distortion if the implant shifts.

Implant Sizes and Profiles

Breast implants are measured in cubic centimeters (CCs), not cup size. Your surgeon will help determine the right volume based on your goals and your natural breast tissue. During your consultation, you’ll have the opportunity to try on “sizers” to preview different outcomes.

Implants also vary in profile:

• Moderate Profile – A wider base with a softer projection.
• High Profile – A smaller base with greater projection, creating a more prominent silhouette.

The right size and profile are chosen to complement your body proportions and desired aesthetic.

Consultation and Personalization

Your breast augmentation journey at The Centre begins with a personalized consultation. This crucial step is where we align your desires with the realities of cosmetic enhancement. Our expert surgeons take the time to understand not just your aesthetic goals but also your lifestyle, health, and body structure. This comprehensive approach ensures that the chosen surgical technique and implant type are perfectly tailored to you.

We believe in an informed decision-making process. During the consultation, every aspect of the procedure, from the type of implant to the placement and expected outcomes, is discussed in detail. We encourage you to voice your concerns and desires, allowing us to provide you with the best possible guidance and care. This one-on-one interaction sets the foundation for a surgery that’s not just about enhancing your appearance but also about enriching your confidence and self-image.

Surgical Procedure

The procedure typically starts with the administration of anesthesia, ensuring your comfort and safety throughout the surgery. Dr. Malek will choose whether general anesthesia or local anesthesia is best patient to patient.

Incision placement is a key aspect of our technique. Options include under the breast crease, around the areola, or through the armpit, each with its advantages and geared towards minimizing visible scarring.

Once the incision is made, the chosen implants – saline or silicone – are carefully inserted. Depending on your body type and desired outcome, implants can be placed either above or below the chest muscle.

The final step involves closing the incisions with sutures, after which we apply bandages to aid in healing. Our surgeons use their extensive expertise to ensure that the incisions are placed strategically, resulting in scars that are as inconspicuous as possible.

Combination Procedures

For some women, the goal of breast augmentation goes beyond size enhancement – it’s about achieving an overall harmonious and youthful appearance. This is where our combination procedures come into play. We frequently pair breast augmentation with a breast lift, addressing both volume and sagging concerns in a single surgery.

A breast lift, or mastopexy, elevates and reshapes the breasts, providing a firmer, perkier contour. When combined with augmentation, it can dramatically rejuvenate the breast profile. This dual procedure is particularly beneficial for those who have experienced changes in breast shape and position due to pregnancy, breastfeeding, or aging. Each combination procedure is carefully planned to suit your individual anatomy and aesthetic goals, ensuring a result that is both beautiful and natural.

Recovery and Post-Operative Care

Recovery is a vital phase where your comfort and healing are our top priorities. Patients can generally return to a desk job after about a week of proper recovery. Lifting and strenuous arm activity should be avoided for 4 to 6 weeks. Discomfort may be experienced and will subside in about a week. However, the total amount of time needed for recovery depends greatly upon the method of implant placement used. Subglandular breast implant placement (the placement of implants above the pectoral muscle) involves a shorter recovery time than patients who undergo submuscular breast implant placement (the placement of implants underneath the pectoral muscle).

To support your recovery, you may be asked wearing a compression garment, which helps in reducing swelling and aids in the proper positioning of the breast implants. Following your surgeon’s instructions diligently is crucial for optimal healing and achieving the desired results.

During this period, it’s essential to avoid strenuous activities or any undue pressure on the chest area to ensure proper healing of the surgical site. Our team provides comprehensive post-operative guidelines and is always available for any questions or concerns you might have. Monitoring for any signs of complications, like shortness of breath or chest pain, is important and should be communicated immediately.

Risk Considerations for Breast Augmentation

While breast augmentation is widely recognized for its high safety profile, like any surgical procedure, it comes with certain risks. During your consultation, we discuss these potential risks, which may include bleeding, infection, changes in nipple sensation, and fluid accumulation. Our team employs the latest surgical techniques and adheres to stringent safety protocols to minimize these risks. Understanding these aspects is crucial for making an informed decision.

Results and Expectations

Post-surgery, you’ll notice an immediate enhancement in breast size and projection. As you recover, the true beauty of your new shape will gradually unveil itself, with swelling subsiding and the natural form taking shape.

It’s important to have realistic expectations. While results are long-lasting, they are not immune to the effects of aging and lifestyle changes. Periodic evaluations and maintenance might be necessary. Our goal is to ensure you feel a renewed sense of confidence, embracing your body with greater self-assurance.

Breast Augmentation Cost

The cost of a breast augmentation procedure varies based on body and skin types along with combined procedures performed. Please call or schedule a consultation for more information.
