Breast Augmentation In Dubai

Breast augmentation Dubai or augmentation mammoplasty refers to a surgical procedure that enhances your breast silhouette by giving you the desired shape and size. It makes your breasts larger and fuller according to your requirements. It is also known as breast implant surgery or breast reconstruction surgery. This procedure can be performed both as an outpatient procedure and as an inpatient procedure under general anesthesia. 

Breast augmentation can be undergone to increase the shape or size of breasts and enhance their texture to make them look fuller and bigger. You can also get it for reconstruction purposes if you have lost breasts due to mastectomy or for the correction of deformities. However, you should know that breast augmentation cannot be done to correct sagging breasts. For that, you need to have breast lift surgery. Breast enhancement Dubai aims at;

Increasing the breast volume 
Reducing breast asymmetry 
Improving the balance of breasts and hip contours 
Boosting your self-image and confidence.

Breast augmentation Dubai is suitable for the following candidates;

Women who have small breasts or hypoplastic breasts.
Women who have lost breast size after pregnancy or weight loss. 
Women with asymmetrical breasts 
Women suffering from tuberous breast deformity 
Women who have lost breasts during cancer treatment and require reconstruction.

If you are a healthy woman with stable blood pressure and you are not pregnant then you are a good candidate for breast augmentation. A non-smoker female is also a suitable candidate. However, the most important thing is the age bracket. You should be 18 or above because at this age your breasts are fully developed.

Usually, three main types of implants are used in breast augmentation surgery which include the following;

Silicone Implants
Saline Implants 
Fat Graft Implants 

Silicone Implants

Silicone implants are filled with silicone gel and are suitable for women who are 22 or above. They are long-lasting and feel more like real breasts but pose more risk in case they leak. Nowadays, highly cohesive silicone implants known as Gummy Bear Implants are also used.

Saline Implants 

They are filled with sterile saltwater and are suitable for women who are 18 or above in age. Saline breast implants Dubai do not give a natural feel but can be inserted with a small incision.

Fat Graft Implants

They are harvested from the person’s own body and used in breast enlargement surgery. Such implants are very effective but there is a limitation. Only one cup of fat can be implanted and harvested which makes it good for a small amount of breast enlargement only.

The type of implant used depends entirely on the receiver of surgery and the results you expect from the surgery. The surgeon will decide what type of material should be used and his/her decision will be based on your expected results.

There are four options to make incisions for breast augmentation in Dubai which are as follows;

Inframammary:

In this technique, a small incision is made below the breasts at the breast fold line which is also known as an inframammary fold. This leaves a small and thin scar that is only 1 to 2 inches in size and can be easily concealed in the inframammary fold. This type of incision creates a large access point which allows the surgeon to place larger implants such as Gummy Bear with accuracy.

Transumbilical:

In this type of technique, an incision is made in the umbilical area to insert the implant. It is not commonly performed and is used for saline implants only.

Peri-areolar:

In this technique, an incision is made below the areola in the shape of a half-moon. It is normally used for women with large nipple-areola complex.

Trans-axillary:

In this technique, the scar is made in the armpit area. The implant is placed in the armpit by using a specialized camera and special instruments are used to ensure good placement. The advantage of this procedure is that it causes no scar on the breasts. 

The breast surgeons use two ways for implant placement;

Submuscular placement – under the chest 
Subglandular placement – under the breast glands

Submuscular Placement

It makes sure that breast implants cannot be felt through the skin easily and are properly covered by the muscles. Also, it provides a better image of the breast.

Subglandular Placement 

It is a quick implant placement procedure and has a short recovery period.

Saline and Silicone implants come only in round shapes while gummy bear implants come in a variety of shapes. The round shape will give its maximum advantage to the upper part of breasts and they will appear firmer while the shaped implants will give sloppy look to the breasts. When performed by a skilled surgeon both the round and shaped implants look very natural.
