Breast Augmentation in Dubai, Abu Dhabi

Breast augmentation medically termed as augmentation mammoplasty is an aesthetic procedure that helps to enlarge the breasts, improve cleavage, and create symmetry, thereby proving a pleasing breast profile. It is a convenient, outpatient procedure performed by Dr. Parag Telang, an expert plastic surgeon in Dubai. After a breast augmentation, one can achieve improved self-esteem and therefore better job and social opportunities, a youthful chest profile, and one can wear any clothing of their choice and flaunt their bodies. 


The following techniques are used for breast augmentation

Fat transfer mammoplasty- In this minimally invasive procedure, fat derived from another body part by liposuction technique is used to restore the lost breast volume. Usually, the autologous fat transfer takes place from the abdomen, hips, and thighs to the breasts with the help of injections containing the prepared and refined fat cells. It is a less conventional method and is known for its efficacy and safety. The surgery is performed in cases when the requirement or changes required are minimal.   

Breast implantation- In this invasive procedure, the breast implants are inserted under the large pectoralis muscle which lies beneath the breast. 

Types of breast implants

Various types of implants can be inserted into the pocket created in the breast tissue by surgery. This includes

Saline breast implant- It is a sterile, saltwater-filled implant that offers a uniform breast shape and firmness. FDA has approved its usage in females aged 18 years and above. This is less commonly used because of its potential collapse if there is a leakage in the shell of the implant. The leaked saline gets absorbed and expelled naturally by the body.

Structured saline breast implant- The only added difference between this type of implant and saline breast implant is the presence of an internal structure for better holding of the implant. The shell is made of silicone material. 

Silicone breast implant- It is the most common type of implant which is composed of cohesive silicone gel. This is soft and elastic and provides a natural breast appearance. If there is any leakage, the implant would not collapse as the silicone gel either remain inside the shell of the implant or gets accumulated in the breast implant pocket. 

Smooth breast implant- It provides a natural look as the implant does not get affixed in one place rather it moves along with the breasts.

Textured breast implant- This type of implant gets stuck, repositioned, and is less mobile due to the development of scar tissue which minimizes the risk of tight scar capsules.

Round breast implant- It possesses an all-over round shape, hence best used for patients who wish to get a fuller breast appearance.

Gummy bear breast implant- It is a form-stable implant containing a thicker cohesive silicone gel as it appears in the same shape even after there is a breakage of the shell of the implant.

Why is breast augmentation surgery performed?

Breast augmentation is needed when women possess

  • Undersized breasts which become an embarrassment and bothersome issue.
  • Asymmetrical breasts.
  • Lack of proportion and imbalanced appearance of curvy hip and breast contour.
  • Non-fuller breasts after pregnancy or nursing of the child.
  • Poor cleavage.
  • Lack of projection of breasts which makes them have a poor self-image and lack of self-confidence.
  • Uneven breasts, i.e. one or both breasts have developed abnormally, and have an elongated shape. 
  • This surgery is also a goal for women who wish to reconstruct their breasts after an injury or a mastectomy surgery that removes the entire breast in breast cancer patients.

Who is best suited for breast augmentation surgery?

  • Physically fit individuals who have realistic expectations with the surgery.
  • Women with fully developed breasts which are small-sized, abnormally shaped, have imbalanced physical proportions, or asymmetrical.
  • Females who are not pregnant or breastfeeding.
  • Individuals who suffer from significant weight loss sometimes due to bariatric surgeries.


How to prepare for breast augmentation?

The preparation of breast augmentation surgery involves following some pre-operative instructions given by the surgeon. These include-

  • Physical examination of the patients to evaluate their health condition, review of their medical history, the conduct of blood tests, and scheduling of a baseline mammogram.
  • Smoking cessation at least a month before the surgery. This is necessary as it would interfere with the healing process because it restricts blood flow in the body, lowers immunity, and increase the risk of having an infection.
  • Keeping the body well-hydrated by increasing the water intake.
  • Making arrangements at home for the recovery period. This also includes looking for a caretaker who would bring the patient home and stay with him/her at least for the first night.
  • Avoiding an intake of blood thinners and anti-inflammatory drugs.
  • Wearing loose garments on the day of surgery and coming for surgery without jewelry or other precious items.


How is the Breast Augmentation Surgery performed

The steps involved in breast augmentation surgery using implants are as follows:

Providing anesthesia: Mostly, the patient is administered with general anesthesia or IV sedation, but sometimes local sedation may be given to numb only the breasts. The type of anesthesia to be provided is determined based on the procedure being performed and the health condition of the patient.

Making incision: Dr. Parag Telang, breast augmentation surgeon in Abu Dhabi prefers to make incisions in inconspicuous areas of the chest to achieve minimally visible scarring. The location of the incision depends upon the breast anatomy, type of implant used, preference made by the surgeon, and the desired results. The options include an inframammary incision (under breast creases), a periareolar incision (at the outer edge of the areola), a transumbilical incision (above belly button), and a transaxillary incision (at a point where chest area and armpit meet).

Placement of breast implant: Through the incision, the surgeon separates the breast tissue from connective tissue and chest muscles. This forms a pocket either in the front or behind the breast tissue i.e. under the pectoral muscles. The implant is positioned centrally behind the areolae region.

Closing of incisions: Using dissolvable sutures, the incisions are closed, and the skin is joined with a skin adhesive or surgical tape. 


What to expect after the breast augmentation surgery?

For a few days, the patient may experience pain, swelling, soreness of breasts, and also sensitivity to physical contact and jarring movements. All these gradually subside within a week. The operated breasts are wrapped with surgical gauze and an elastic bandage or supportive surgical bra is asked to be worn by the patient as additional support and also to reduce swelling. Some patients are advised to wear a bandeau for giving a proper shape to their new symmetrical or larger breasts. 


Drainage tubes may be inserted at incision sites to take out extra body fluids or blood. It is removed in the follow-up appointment with the surgeon. The final results may be noticed after a few weeks. The scars left by incisions usually fade in a couple of months or sometimes years.


Breast augmentation surgery does not guarantee a life-term result because over time with increasing age, gravity, weight fluctuations, pregnancy, and menopause the enhanced appearance of breasts may get affected. For maintaining a healthy breast shape and to know the impact of breast implant, Dr. Parag Telang, cosmetic surgeon in Dubai recommends regular breast examination after the surgery.


Possible risks:

There are minimal chances of having any risks if the surgery is performed by an expert. But sometimes, the surgery may be associated with some of these risks-

  • Anesthesia side effects
  • Infection. 
  • Sensitive breasts and changes in the areolae region.
  • Rupture and leakage of implants.
  • Bleeding or bruising.
  • Hematoma.
  • Development of scar tissue around the implant that may lead to a distorted shape of breast implant.
  • Incorrect placement of breast implant.
  • Fluid build-up around the implant.
  • Persistent breast pain. 
  • Wrinkled breast skin over the implant.


Aftercare required after surgery

The patient must take certain precautions after the surgery to ensure a quick recovery and the best healing. Dr. Parag Telang, breast surgeon in Abu Dhabi recommends the patient to follow these post-surgery instructions:

  • Complete the prescribed course of antibiotics, painkillers, or other medications as given by the doctor.
  • Wear the compression or support garments as recommended by the surgeon.
  • Avoid or limit strenuous physical activities for a minimum of two weeks.
  • Return to work or daily activities only when the doctor’s permission.
  • Avoid wetting of surgical dressing or bandages and keep the incisions site clean and dry. At least for the first 48 hours, do not take a shower or wet the surgical site. An ointment may be applied for quick healing of the wounded area. But before applying any cream, lotion, or deodorant close to the incision, the patient must take permission from the doctor.
  • Do not go for swimming, hot baths, or saunas for at least 6 weeks after the surgery.
  • After a month of breast implant surgery, schedule an appointment with the surgeon to assess the condition of the implant using MRI or ultrasound.
  • If the patient has got a silicone-based implant in their chest, then it is recommended to visit the surgeon after every 6 months to ensure the correct working of the implant.
  • Maintain a healthy lifestyle, if the patient is a smoker or alcohol abuser, then both must be quit, as it may delay healing.
