Surgeries Performed
Breast Augmentation with Implants involves the surgical insertion of silicone or saline implants to enhance breast size and shape. This approach is ideal for those who desire a significant and noticeable increase in breast volume, which cannot typically be achieved with fat transfer alone.
During the procedure, implants are carefully placed either under the breast tissue or beneath the chest muscle, depending on your body type, the type of implant, and the desired outcome. Our experienced surgeons use state-of-the-art techniques to minimize scarring and optimize the aesthetic result, ensuring that the implants look as natural and congruent with your body as possible.
A consultation with our skilled surgeons is essential to determine if you are a candidate for breast augmentation with implants. Suitable candidates are those looking for a noticeable increase in breast size and have realistic expectations about the outcomes. Factors considered include your overall health, breast anatomy, skin quality, and personal aesthetic goals.
During your consultation, our compassionate team will review factors such as your overall health, breast anatomy, and aesthetic goals, to determine the right treatment plan for you.
Preparing for a Breast Augmentation surgery involves both physical and emotional readiness. Our knowledgeable team will provide comprehensive instructions tailored to your specific needs. Here are some general preparation guidelines:
In order to help with the post-op healing process, it’s important to eat healthy and exercise before your procedure. You will also need to give up smoking a month in advance and limit your caffeine and alcohol consumption as well.
Some medications may also need to be stopped prior to surgery. Consult your doctor to find out which medications you should avoid.
A little nervousness is normal before any surgery, especially one as life-changing as top surgery. You may wish to get help from your therapist to reduce stress and anxiety, as will connect with family and friends for support.
During your consultation, your surgeon will answer any questions you might have about the surgery, the procedure, and what to expect afterward.
After surgery, the recovery process varies from patient to patient. Depending on your job, you may need to take extended time off from work. Most patients are able to return to desk work one week after surgery.
Check with your insurance provider if gender affirmation surgery is covered. make sure you know what documents you need to submit. Your primary care physician may also order a physical examination and laboratory tests for you. Provide a copy of the results to the clinic prior to your pre-operative appointment.
You should purchase any medication prescribed by your doctor before your procedure. It's also a good idea to put toiletries and essentials on a lower shelf so that you won't have to reach for them.
As with any surgical procedure, there are potential risks and complications associated with Breast Augmentation Surgery. These may include infection, implant leakage or rupture, and capsular contracture. Your surgeon will discuss these risks with you during your consultations and explain the steps taken to minimize them.
If you are having surgery, you won't be able to drive, so make arrangements for someone to pick you up after the procedure. You may also want to arrange for someone to help you with tasks such as preparing meals, doing your laundry, etc. during your recovery. Ask your clinic if they can make special arrangements for a caregiver if you are living alone or travelling from abroad to have your top surgery in Canada.
Following your top surgery, you will be asked to wear a supportive bra (similar to a sports bra) for up to six weeks. There are many benefits to wearing a chest binder after a breast augmentation, including:
• Preventing fluid discharge
• Minimizing scarring
• Lessening discomfort
• Keeping the sutured skin together and stopping it from stretching
When it comes to recovery time, there is no one-size-fits-all solution. People heal at different rates and some may recover faster than others. If you work in an office and sit at a desk all day, you may be able to return to your job after a week of rest. You might be able to do some light walking as well. Take it slowly. For up to six weeks post-op, it's best not to do heavy lifting or other strenuous activities, as this can result in bleeding.
