Breast Augmentation in Dubai
Breast augmentation surgery, sometimes known as a “boob job,” is a popular surgical operation that uses artificial breast implants to enhance the size and change the contour of the breasts. Breast augmentation can aid in restoring lost volume and symmetry that may have occurred as a result of several circumstances, such as fast weight reduction.
What are the benefits of Breast Augmentation Surgery?
Breast augmentation does not always result in a radically different appearance. The bulk of breast augmentation operations are more subtly done, increasing size by emphasising the bust line’s natural features.
Women choose to increase the size of their bust for many different reasons. Some causes might be:
- increased self-esteem and confidence in appearance.
- reconstructing breasts after other forms of surgery.
- loss of breast volume through pregnancy and breast-feeding.
- loss of breast volume due to weight loss.
Breast Augmentation Procedure
Under general anesthesia, the Breast Augmentation surgery typically takes one and a half hours to complete. The most usual approach is to place the implants through an incision beneath each breast, where there is a natural crease in the skin, despite the fact that there are various other ways to do it. The place of the implants will be decided upon during the consultation in order to offer you the desired form and size.
Breast Implant Choice
There are several implants that could be suitable for you, and Dr. Leonard will go through the benefits and drawbacks of each. Dr. Leonard employs the whole line of implants made by Allergan, a 25-year-old firm whose products are FDA approved and come with lifetime warranties.
Breast Implant Sizing
There are many various sizes, so it depends on your body type and personal preferences. Dr. Leonard will be able to give you advise regarding what will suit your frame the best. A customised Allergan Natrelle Pre-consultation kit is another tool Dr Leonard uses to educate potential patients about breast augmentation while giving them the chance to test out various implant sizes in a specific profile bra.
Breast Augmentation Scars
There will always be scars from breast augmentation operations because incisions are necessary. These won’t show in a bra or bikini top, though, as they are situated around the lower crease line of the breasts. Dr. Leonard can offer guidance on how to effectively speed up the fading of scars over time.
Why is Breast Augmentation Needed?
Your suitability for a breast augmentation surgery can only be determined after a consultation. If you believe that your breasts are not what you would like them to be and if you would desire larger, fuller, firmer breasts to suit your overall form, then you are a prospective candidate for this operation, which may boost your confidence and self-esteem.
Dr. Leonard will inquire about your general medical history during your appointment, including information about any prior breast surgery, family history of breast illness, delivery, and breastfeeding. Dr. Leonard will have a conversation in which he will make an effort to take into account all the relevant factors, including your age, your breast size and form, the proportions of your body, and the state of your skin.
BREAST AUGMENTATION – FAQs
Am I a Suitable Candidate for Breast Augmentation?
Breast augmentation is a highly individualized procedure, and candidacy varies from person to person. Generally, suitable candidates are individuals in good overall health, have realistic expectations about the outcomes, and are dissatisfied with the size, shape, or symmetry of their breasts. It's essential to have fully developed breasts before considering this surgery, typically around the age of 18 or older. During a consultation, Dr. Leonard will assess your health, discuss your goals, and help you determine if breast augmentation is the right choice for you.
What Are the Different Types of Breast Implants?
There are two main types of breast implants: saline and silicone. Saline implants are filled with sterile salt water and can be adjusted in size during surgery. They offer a firmer feel but may ripple slightly. Silicone implants are pre-filled with a cohesive silicone gel that closely mimics the natural feel and texture of breast tissue. They are popular for their natural appearance and come in various shapes and sizes. Dr. Leonard will guide you in selecting the appropriate implant type, size, and shape based on your body type, preferences, and desired outcomes during your consultation.
What are the latest advancements in breast augmentation that Dr. Leonard utilizes to enhance patient outcomes?
In Dubai, Dr. Leonard leverages the latest in breast augmentation, using 3D imaging for precise planning and highly cohesive silicone gel implants for natural results. He adopts a personalized approach to select the ideal implant size and type, ensuring optimal outcomes and safety.
How does the choice between submuscular and subglandular implant placement impact the results of a breast augmentation?
The choice between submuscular (under the muscle) and subglandular (over the muscle, under the breast tissue) implant placement significantly impacts the aesthetic results, feel, and recovery time of breast augmentation. Submuscular placement typically offers a more natural slope of the breast, reduced risk of capsular contracture, and less interference with mammogram readings. In contrast, subglandular placement might be preferred for patients seeking a more pronounced look or for those with sufficient breast tissue to cover the implant adequately, offering a shorter recovery period.
What measures are taken to minimize scarring after breast augmentation surgery?
To minimize scarring, surgeons employ meticulous surgical techniques that include making incisions in discreet locations (such as the inframammary fold, periareolar, or axillary regions), using advanced suture materials and methods, and recommending post-operative care protocols. These protocols may involve silicone gel sheets, scar massage, and avoidance of direct sun exposure on the scars for a specified period, all aimed at ensuring the most aesthetically pleasing results with minimal visible scarring.
High profile people, including royalty, CEOs, directors, celebrities, and influencers, are among Dr.Leonard’s patients. People whose careers depend on their looks, or those who, because of their positions or way of life, want to remain completely anonymous and discreet. He vigorously supports a natural and minimalistic aesthetic and the maxim “less is more.” He doesn’t think it’s a good idea to include unnecessary “extras,” only those that will actually help and have natural results.
According to Dr. Leonard’s own perspective, every patient should have a highly happy and lifeimproving experience from cosmetic and reconstructive operations. However, it is crucial that patients are thoroughly informed of the anticipated results, healing, and potential hazards.
