What is Breast Augmentation Surgery?
Breast augmentation is a popular surgical procedure that uses implants or fat transfers to increase the size and shape of breasts. Regardless of your current situation, this medical procedure gives breasts a more rounded and symmetrical appearance.
Besides the need to boost your appearance, breast augmentation in Dubai is also done for reconstructive purposes. For instance, those that have had a mastectomy can also benefit from breast augmentation.
Breast implants are mostly made from Silicone or Saline to give you a fuller bustline.
Why is Breast Augmentation Done?
Some of the reasons why breast augmentation is done are:
Ensure to discuss your ultimate goal for breast augmentation with your surgeon. Thereafter, they will give you realistic feedback regarding the possible outcomes and what the procedure can do for you.
How are Breast Implants used in Breast Augmentation?
Breast implants are medical silicone shells filled with saline (saltwater) or silicone gel. They come in various shapes and sizes customized to a person’s needs. Breast implants are made to offer a close resemblance to natural breasts.
The materials used in breast implants do not cause any allergic reaction to the body, meaning you shouldn’t worry about any adverse effects. There are different types of implants to choose from when getting breast augmentation in Dubai.
Types of Implants Used in Breast Augmentation
Saline Breast Implants
Saline breast implants are filled with sterile saltwater. While they are inserted when empty, they are filled once in place. Saline implants are ideal for women aged 18 and older.
Silicone Implants
Silicone gel-filled implants are filled with elastic soft-gel. They are usually pre-filled and have been in use since the 1990s. Silicone implants are available to women aged 22 and older.
Gummy Bear Breast Implants
Also referred to as form-based implants, these are silicone implants that contain more silicone gel than other traditional silicone implants.
Round Breast Implants
These are more like the gummy bear breast implants, only appearing fuller. Even when cut, the implants are able to maintain their shape or form as they contain thicker silicone gel.
Smooth Breast Implants
Smooth breast implants have an outer silicone rubber shell that is smooth and soft. However, they do not attach to the surrounding breast tissues and are usually freely moveable.
Breast Augmentation Using Fat Transfer
Besides the use of silicone or saline breast implants, there’s also a fat transfer breast augmentation. Here, your surgeon uses liposuction to remove the fat from a different part of your body and then inject it into your breasts.
This type of breast augmentation is generally ideal for people that only want a small increase in their breast size.

How to Prepare for Breast Augmentation in Dubai?
Breast augmentation surgery is a pretty straightforward procedure. During your initial visit, your surgeon will ask you a few questions, including examining your body to determine if you’re an ideal candidate.
You’ll also discuss with your surgeon about your preferences and expectations. Once all that is out of the way, you’ll be given an appointment for your breast augmentation surgery.
Your doctor may advise that you stop using certain medications or recommend alternatives before the procedure. Moreover, if you are a regular smoker, you’ll also have to stop smoking a few weeks before the surgery. Smoking and alcohol intake may induce bleeding and prolong healing.
What to Expect During Breast Augmentation Surgery?
Breast augmentation is done in our clinic in Dubai. You’ll most likely go back home the same day as the procedure rarely requires a hospital stay. Your surgeon may use local or general anesthesia.
To insert the breast implant, your surgeon will make an incision in one of three places:
After that, your breast tissues will be separated from your chest’s muscles and connective tissues. This creates a pocket where the surgeon inserts the implant. Once the implant is in place, the surgeon closes the incision with stitches and bandages it.
Breast Augmentation Recovery
You may experience swelling and soreness for a few weeks. Your surgeon will advise you on when and how to return to your regular activities. It would be prudent to avoid any strenuous physical activities that may raise your blood pressure for at least two weeks. Your doctor will remain in regular contact with you to monitor your progress.
