Silicone Breast Implants in Dubai

Silicone breast implants are the most popular medical devices used to enhance and reconstruct the shape and size of breasts. Their outer shell is made of durable silicone. The inside also contains silicone but in gel form, which is thick and sticky. This gel creates a feel of natural breast tissues.

Breast implants are mostly used in breast augmentation. This surgery gives a fuller look to the breasts of women who have lost their bust volume due to aging, breastfeeding, and pregnancy.

Silicone implants are also used in breast reconstruction after a mastectomy. 

What are the types of silicone breast implants?

1. Cohesive gel implants

These implants contain a thick cohesive gel-like silicone material. This cohesive part holds together more firmly and maintains a natural shape. These implants are best known for their natural appearance and are available in different shapes and sizes.

1. Highly cohesive gel implants

Highly cohesive gel implants are firmer than cohesive gel implants. These implants have a high density and low viscosity. Due to the high density of the gel, it tends to have a more perkier appearance.

Who are the ideal candidates for silicone breast implants?

Ideal candidates for silicone breast implants should be:

• Physically healthy: Good overall health reduces the risk of any complications during the surgery.
• At least 18 years old: Women at the age of 18 or above are considered ideal candidates for silicone breast implants because this is when the breasts usually develop to their fullness.
• Having realistic expectations: Having a clear understanding of the potential risks and benefits is very important before this surgery.
• Not pregnant or breastfeeding: Breast implant surgery, or breast augmentation in general, is not ideal for pregnant or nursing women due to a higher risk of complications.

How are silicone breast implants inserted?

The breast implants are inserted through an incision made in the armpit or along the natural crease of the inframammary fold. They are placed behind the breast or on the chest wall muscle. Your specialist will choose the best technique based on your preferences or requirements.

What to expect after silicone breast implant surgery?

Initial recovery

After the breast implant surgery, you will likely experience soreness, swelling, and discomfort in the chest for a few days. This is completely normal during the recovery process. 

Your breasts may feel tight or firm during the initial days. Your surgeon will advise you to wear a surgical bra or use a surgical bandage to support your breast. The specialist will also ask you to avoid any strenuous activity or exercise that can create complications during the recovery phase.

Long-term recovery

After the surgery, complete healing and recovery will be around 2 to 3 months. Your breasts will start to feel softer and settled over time. The incision made during the surgery will heal within a few weeks, but the scars may take several months to fade. Light exercises can be resumed after 3 to 4 weeks of the surgery and lifting heavy weights should be avoided until complete recovery.

The results of breast implant surgery vary depending on the body type. But in general, they give you an enhanced and perkier appearance. Patients having uneven breasts see a significant improvement in symmetry after the surgery. Once healed, Silicone implants create a more natural shape and size.

What are the benefits of silicone breast implants?

The most popular benefits of these implants are as follows:

• Silicone breast implants do not usually require follow-up adjustments. Once their placement is done, they tend to maintain their shape for many years without any issues.
• Rippling and wrinkling are minimal because of the cohesive gel present in the silicone breast implants.
• Silicone breast implants are suitable for various body types. Whether you have smaller or uneven breasts, you can consider these implants to achieve an enhanced yet natural bust.
• Silicon breast implants tend to have a reduced risk of leaks if an implant fractures.
