Breast Augmentation and Lift

If you are seeking fuller, firm, and youthful-looking breasts, then a combined breast augmentation and lift (mastopexy) is the perfect option for you.

Our board-certified surgeon at Hortman Clinic in Dubai will discuss the risks, advantages, and various surgical options available with you. Together, you will decide the best procedure and implant option for you and your lifestyle.

With this surgery, your nipple position is corrected; it no longer faces downward, and the implant adds volume, creating a full, youthful-looking physique.

TREATMENT

Are you a good candidate, and which implant will look the best?

During your consultation at our aesthetic clinic in Dubai, you will discuss your expectations and your lifestyle. Our plastic surgeon will consider all of these and your overall physique and create the best solution for you. There are several criteria your plastic surgeon will look at to evaluate if you are a candidate for the procedure:.

  • You are in good health with no prior infections or illnesses that can affect your recovery.
  • You have sagging, asymmetrical, and elongated breasts.
  • You are a non-smoker and preferably do not consume alcohol (as this can affect your recovery)
  • Have realistic expectations and discuss your desired outcomes with your doctor.
  • You understand the risks involved.
  • You agree to rest and allow your body to recover fully post-surgery (This includes no heavy lifting or vigorous movement for 6-8 weeks)

TREATMENT

The procedure is not recommended for:

  • You are pregnant, planning to fall pregnant, or breastfeeding.
  • You have had an abnormal mammogram or ultrasound.
  • You have breast cancer and are in the process of treatment.
  • You have unrealistic results and hopes for the surgery.

Even though most women qualify for a breast augmentation and lift, it is imperative that you are open and honest with your plastic surgeon.

Multiple other options are available if an implant is not the right fit for you. The types of implants used depend on your desired outcome and lifestyle; our plastics surgeon here at Hortman Clinic will discuss your options, the longevity, and the result of each implant. From there, you will agree on your surgical plan.

All you need to know about breast augmentation and lift

Breast augmentation combines two procedures—a lift and the placement of a surgical implant—to create a more youthful-looking breast. The procedure begins with your surgeon making an incision to remove any excess skin. Incisions are typically made around the areola and vertically from the areola to the base of the breast, sometimes referred to as a “lollipop scar.” Through these incisions, your surgeon will place the implants, usually under the pectoral chest muscle. Once the implants are positioned, the surgeon will ensure symmetry and close the incisions.

After surgery, you will be bandaged with surgical tape and garments before being moved to the recovery bay. Soon after, the team will transfer you to your room for rest, ensuring you are pain-free and comfortable. Most patients can go home the same day, but some may need to stay overnight if recommended by the doctor. In some cases, you may be fitted with drains to remove any excess fluid or blood if there was significant fluid build-up.

Once discharged, it is essential to rest at home for 7-14 days, avoiding any vigorous activities for six weeks. Bruising will be noticeable initially but will fade over time. You should wear your surgical garment or bra all day, removing it only to shower. This garment supports the new implants and helps the breasts settle into the best position, and should be worn for at least two weeks.

Common side effects include swelling and bruising, which will subside as you heal. Your final results will become visible after a few weeks as the breasts settle into place. It is crucial to attend your follow-up visits with your surgeon to discuss any concerns or post-op care. If you have any issues with the surgical site, scars, or any area of the breast, do not wait for your appointment—contact your surgeon immediately.

PROCEDURE

What to expect during your consultation

You will need to meet our expert breast plastic surgeon for a consultation. You will review your expectations, lifestyle, and surgical options during this time.

You will also need to complete your medical photographs that will go on file. The various options for your implants will be discussed, including texture, roundness, or shape, such as teardrop, along with your surgical options and techniques.

During your consultation, your doctor will need you to answer questions about the following:

  • Any previous surgeries
  • Any medication (especially aspirin or anything that might cause bleeding)
  • Family history of breast cancer

The doctor will also complete the following:

  • Measurements of your breasts
  • Medical photos of your breast for your health records
  • Discuss the risks, outcomes, and surgical options regarding your procedure.
  • The procedure, as well as the use of anesthesia .
  • Follow-ups appointments, post-op garments, and care.

Final results of your Breast Augmentation Surgery

Breast augmentation surgery not only addresses the size and shape of your breast but also improves body and self-esteem concerns.

After your recovery period and your breasts have settled in place, the final results will be visible, now full and lifted, giving you a newfound sense of confidence and self-assurance. It is essential to take care of your health and fitness, as weight gain or weight loss can change the appearance of your breasts.

If you become pregnant and plan to breastfeed, please discuss this with your surgeon.

FAQs

Frequently asked questions

The short answer is yes, there are complications with all surgical procedures, and our surgeon here in Dubai will discuss these with you. The most common complication with a combined augmentation and lift is hardening (contracture) of the capsule around the surgical implant. Some patients have also reported scarring and drooping (recurrent ptosis). Our specialist plastic surgeon at Hortman Clinic will discuss all these with you and together formulate the best surgical plan with the least risk.

The FDA approved that all implants (silicone or saline) are safe for 10-20 years; however, that does not mean you need to replace the implant every 10-20 years. Most patients replace their implants safely with 1-2 replacements in a lifetime. Your surgeon will discuss the signs for implant revision surgery to ensure you are well-equipped to know when it is time. Regular breast examinations for overall breast health are recommended. Just because you had an implant procedure does not exempt you from your routine breast screening.

The breast augmentation procedure does not prevent you from becoming pregnant or hinder you in any way, and most women breastfeed with no complications post-procedure. Nevertheless, surgeons will recommend that you do the procedure after pregnancy as the weight gain and loss affect the look of your breasts and can compromise the results you achieve during the surgery. You can opt for a revision if you are unsatisfied with your breasts post-pregnancy.

For your preparation, our team here at Hortman Clinic in Dubai would request you to do the following:

  • Full lab testing and a medical evaluation.
  • Adjust any chronic medication that you are on (if any)
  • Mammography and a breast ultrasound before and after surgery to ensure your breast tissue is healthy
  • Reduce or stop smoking.
  • Stop or talk to your doctor about any blood thinners medication such as aspirin and anti-inflammatory drugs.

Your breast augmentation and lift scars will initially look raised and red. Our board-certified plastic surgeon uses precise and thin incisions to ensure that they will be less visible once healed. As you heal, your scars will soften, fade, become less visible, and turn red/pink to white. Part of your post-surgery care will include a scar cream that will be prescribed to you.
