Breast Augmentation

Here’s what you can generally expect when considering fat transfer breast augmentation:

1. Consultation

• You’ll begin by scheduling a consultation with a consultant experienced in breast augmentation procedures.
• During the consultation, you will discuss your goals, preferences, and concerns.
• The surgeon will assess your breast anatomy and help you choose the appropriate implant type, size, and placement based on your desired outcome.

2. Evaluation

• The surgeon will evaluate your overall health, lifestyle, and expectations to ensure you’re a suitable candidate. This may include discussing your skin quality, existing breast tissue, and chest proportions.

3. Implant Selection

• You will choose between saline or silicone implants, as well as implant shape (round or anatomical), profile, and placement (above or below the muscle). Your surgeon will guide you through these options to ensure natural, balanced results.

4. Anesthesia

• Breast augmentation with implants is typically performed under general anaesthesia to ensure your comfort throughout the procedure.

5. Surgical Procedure

• The surgeon will make an incision—commonly in the inframammary fold (under the breast), around the areola, or in the armpit.
• The chosen implants are then carefully placed into a pocket either beneath the breast tissue or chest muscle, depending on your surgical plan.

6. Recovery

• Following the procedure, you may experience swelling, bruising, and discomfort, which typically improves within a few days to weeks.
• You’ll be provided with a surgical bra and post-operative care instructions to support healing.

7. Healing and Scarring

• Healing takes several weeks, and final results continue to settle over a few months.
• Scarring is minimal and typically well-hidden in natural creases or around the areola.

8. Results

• Initial results are visible almost immediately, with full results becoming more apparent as swelling subsides and the implants settle into place.
• Patients often report improved confidence, body proportions, and satisfaction with their overall silhouette.

9. Future Considerations

• You may require revision surgery in the future due to aging, lifestyle changes, or personal preferences.
• Routine implant checks and open communication with your surgeon help maintain long-term satisfaction and safety.
