What result are we looking for?
Breasts that look like a natural part of you. Size matters less than proportion — to your height, frame and figure. The best surgery does not look like surgery.
How is the implant placed?
The implant is inserted through an incision in the crease beneath the breast. This hides the scar in a natural fold and gives me precise control over the implant pocket. The implant can sit behind the breast tissue, behind the muscle, or partly behind each — an approach called dual plane. Each option has advantages and disadvantages. At your consultation, I explain which is right for you and why.
What types of implants are available?
There are round, anatomical and ergonomic implants in different sizes and profiles. I work with new-generation round and ergonomic implants with smooth surfaces and manufacturer warranties.
How do we choose the implant size?
I recommend a size based on your measurements: your height, back width, body type and current breast size. During the consultation, we use 3D simulation and sizing garments to try different sizes and see how they would look. We make the choice together, and the final decision is always yours. Wearing fitted clothing will help you see the difference.
How long do surgery and recovery take?
Surgery takes about two hours. Full recovery takes one to two weeks: following the instructions, most patients resume light daily activities in around 48 hours and gradually return to aerobic exercise from the third week. The final result is assessed at one year, when the tissues have finished adapting to the implant.
What anesthesia is used?
Surgery is performed under general anesthesia, administered by a board-certified anesthesiologist, following a cardiovascular assessment.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does breast augmentation surgery take?
About two hours.
When can I see the final result?
At one year, although the change is noticeable from day one.
Who decides the size of the implant?
You, with my recommendation based on your measurements and 3D simulation.
Is surgery done in the office?
No. Surgery is always performed in a hospital operating room, with a board-certified anesthesiologist.
What should I bring to my first consultation?
Nothing special: we have 3D simulation and garments for trying implant sizes. We suggest wearing fitted clothing.
