Breast enhancement with cohesive silicone implants, choosing volume, profile and shape during your consultation with sizers. Submuscular, subglandular or dual-plane pocket depending on your tissue.
The right implant is the one your body can carry naturally over the long term. That is why we measure breast base width, tissue thickness and symmetry before we ever talk about cubic centimeters.
We work with implants that carry health-authority registration and the manufacturer's warranty, in a hospital with a board-certified anesthesiologist. Fat transfer augmentation is also offered for those seeking a moderate change without an implant.
Is it for me?

Technique

Incision in the inframammary fold (the most common), around the areola or in the armpit.
Dual plane to cover the implant with muscle above and give a natural shape below.
Aftercare
Surgical bra day and night for 4 to 6 weeks.
No heavy lifting or chest exercise for the first month.
Periodic ultrasound or MRI to monitor the implants.
Results and how long they last
The implants sit high for the first few weeks and settle into position between the second and third month.
