Overview

Breast augmentation is also referred to as a ‘boob job’ or  ‘augmentation mammoplasty.’ Breast augmentation surgery is the most popular procedure globally, with approximately 1.7 million procedures performed each year.

 

One of the most significant advantages of breast augmentation is its completely customisable approach with different breast implant brands, sizes, shapes, profiles, and textures to choose from.

Women who have had these procedures report increased self-confidence and improved physical appearance in proportion to the rest of their bodies.

Typically, breast augmentation in Dubai is performed in one of the three following ways:

  • Breast implants
  • Autologous fat transfer

Procedure options for breast augmentation in Dubai

Breast implants Dubai for breast augmentation

Breast implants are prosthetic devices used to enlarge and enhance breast size and shape. 

Dr Adnan uses Motiva Ergonomix implants, which adapt naturally to gravitational changes, providing the most natural look and feel.

 He also uses Crisalix virtual reality software to create personalised augmented models during consultations. At your consultation Dr Adnan will discuss the risks and side effects of the procedure, tailoring your treatment plan to your needs.

Breast implant size

One of the most common concerns among breast augmentation patients is implant size. But there is no “one-size-fits-all” solution. “CC’s” – cubic centimetres – are used to measure implant sizes. Breast implants range in size from 100 CC to 800 CC, but the most common sizes are 300 and 400 CC. The following are general size ranges:

SMALL SIZE: 200 CC OR BELOW
MEDIUM SIZE: 250 CC TO 350 CC
LARGE SIZE STARTING AT 400 CC

Breast implant shapes

Round shape

Round implants create a fuller top and pronounced cleavage, with projections from low to high.

Teardrop shape

Teardrop implants offer a natural look, with fullness at the bottom and subtle cleavage.

Ergonomic implants

Ergonomic implants mimic natural breast movement and fit various shapes. Dr Adnan prefers Motiva Ergonomix® for its advanced design.

Placement of breast implants

After making incisions, implants can be placed in three ways. Dr Adnan will recommend the best approach based on your body type, implant size, and chest characteristics:

Subglandular (over the muscle)

Implants are placed between the breast tissue and muscle. This less invasive method allows for faster recovery.

Submuscular (behind the muscle)

Implants are placed under the pectoral muscle, offering natural results, especially for slimmer patients or those with little breast tissue. This method also improves implant support and reduces the risk of capsular contracture.

Dual plane

A pocket is created beneath the pectoral muscle, placing two-thirds of the implant under the muscle and one-third in the subglandular plane. This advanced technique provides a natural look, excellent support, and fullness.

Dr Adnan will consider the best implant size, shape, and incision type for your breast augmentation with implants according to your unique needs.

Breast augmentation with fat transfer

Fat transfer, or autologous fat grafting, increases breast volume using your unwanted body fat. 

This involves liposuction to remove fat from areas like the tummy, hips, and thighs, then transferring it to the breasts. Ideal for those happy with their breast shape, this method offers a natural look with no surgical scars avoiding revision surgeries or getting breast implant removal procedures in the future.

It is also used for breast reconstruction post-mastectomy and correcting deformities like tuberous breasts and Poland syndrome.

Hybrid breast augmentation

This is primary breast augmentation in front of the pectoral muscles, with or without fat grafting, based on the patient’s individual needs.

Sub-pectoral or dual-plane augmentation is reserved for secondary and reconstructive procedures. The hybrid technique combines implants and fat grafting for a more natural look, leveraging advancements in hybrid techniques and sixth generation breast implants.

Suitable candidates for breast augmentation in Dubai

Only a qualified plastic surgeon with extensive experience in breast surgeries, such as Dr Adnan Tahir, can determine whether or not you are a good candidate for surgery.

Suitable candidates for breast augmentation surgery usually meet the following criteria:

  • They have breasts that are “empty” or sagging (usually due to pregnancy, breastfeeding, ageing, or weight fluctuation).
  • They wish to improve the shape of their breasts and make their cleavage more visible.
  • They have asymmetric breasts that require correction.
  • They are physically and mentally fit to make this decision.
  • They have realistic expectations (looking for improvements but not perfection)
  • They are not pregnant or breastfeeding (you should wait at least three months after stopping breastfeeding for the surgery).

Breast augmentation recovery and downtime

Here’s everything you need to know about the recovery process for breast augmentation in Dubai, including how you’ll feel, what to expect, and how to care for your new breasts. Each patient is unique, and each patient’s recovery will be unique as well.

IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWING SURGERY:

You may feel sleepy and tired for a while after waking up from general anesthesia. You will stay at the clinic for one night and then return home the next day. You will not be able to drive, so make the necessary arrangements by asking a family member or friend.

THE FIRST THREE DAYS:

The first three days after surgery are the most difficult, and you may feel discomfort, pain, and pressure in your chest area. Take medication as directed by your breast surgeon to help you feel more at ease during your recovery.

Some patients will require rest during this time, while others can engage in simple activities such as walking or preparing simple meals at home.

At this point, lymphatic drainage massages may be required to reduce edema and speed recovery.

AFTER THE FIRST WEEK:

After the first week, you will be able to resume many of your daily activities, such as driving, light housework, self-care, and simple chores.
The implants begin to settle into place after the first week, so take it easy and avoid strenuous activities, especially those that involve your arms and chest.

You will be able to return to work and the gym after two weeks (start with light exercises).

AFTER FOUR WEEKS:

After four weeks, you can start doing heavy exercises. If you are healing as expected, you can also go to the beach (avoid direct sun exposure on the scar area).

After a month, you should be completely healed and ready to begin your “new life.” At this point you can stop wearing a surgical bra and resume all activities as normal.

What to expect from breast augmentation surgery in Dubai?

When you opt for breast augmentation surgery, you can look forward to achieving larger, fuller, and firmer breasts. It’s important to understand that while the surgery enhances volume and shape, it does not change your breasts’ natural characteristics, such as shape, areola, or nipples.

 In certain cases, Dr Adnan Tahir might recommend combining additional surgical techniques with breast augmentation to ensure the best possible results tailored to your body.

Dr Adnan Tahir: expert in breast implants, fat transfer, and hybrid breast augmentation

Breast augmentation, often referred to as a boob job, breastwork, silicone implants, or breast enhancement, involves using breast implants or fat transfer to increase breast size. A more advanced option is the hybrid technique, which combines implants and fat grafting for a natural look. 

This procedure can restore breast volume lost after weight reduction or pregnancy, achieve a more rounded breast shape, or improve natural breast size asymmetry.

What breast augmentation surgery in Dubai can do:

  • Increase fullness and projection of your breasts
  • Improve the balance of breast and hip contours
  • Enhance your self-image and self-confidence

What breast augmentation surgery can’t do:

  • It does not correct severely drooping breasts. A breast lift may be required along with augmentation for sagging breasts to look fuller and lifted. Breast lifting can often be done simultaneously with your augmentation or may require a separate operation. Dr Adnan will assist you in making this decision.

Suitable candidates:

  • Breast implants: Ideal for those looking to significantly increase breast size and enhance shape.
  • Breast augmentation with fat transfer: Suitable for those desiring a modest increase in breast size using their own body fat for a natural feel.
  • Hybrid breast augmentation: Perfect for individuals seeking a natural look and feel with the combined benefits of implants and fat transfer.

Breast Implants in Dubai

Breast Implant Shapes

Breast implant shape is also a major factor to consider if you’ve decided to get a breast augmentation. There are three distinct forms:

Breast Augmentation - Round Shape

Round Shape

The round shape was the first implant to hit the market, and it remains the most popular. Round implants will give your mammary glands a fuller appearance at the top, making them a great choice for women who want a more pronounced cleavage or have a firm lift and want a perky look. Round implants are available in a variety of projections, ranging from low to high.

Breast Augmentation - Teardrop Shape

Teardrop Shape Implants

Teardrop-shaped implants give your mammary glands a more natural appearance. The bottom is fuller than the top in this shape, but that doesn’t mean there won’t be cleavage; it just means the fulness is concentrated more at the bottom.

Breast Augmentation - Ergonomic Implants

Ergonomic Implants

An ergonomic implant has a free shape that mimics the dynamics of natural mammary glands. These advanced Implants are designed with round or oval bases to suit a variety of thorax shapes naturally. Dr Adnan prefers the Motiva Ergonomix® implant which is the world’s first ergonomic silicone implant with a wide range of advantages over other implant shapes.

FAQ

Who is a good candidate for breast augmentation?

In general, anyone who is 18+ years of age and in good health with no serious ongoing medical conditions is suitable for this procedure. Breast augmentation is ideal for women who want to increase their breast volume and cup size, correct breast asymmetry, address congenital conditions such as constricted breast deformity, and reconstructive breast procedures following mastectomy.

A small degree of breast ptosis or sagginess may be improved with breast augmentation. This usually requires a breast lift procedure called mastopexy with or without fat grafting.

 

Is it safe to get breast augmentation?

Every surgical procedure has advantages, disadvantages, and risks. No surgical procedure is 100% safe. The important thing is to educate yourself as much as possible prior to the procedure so you can anticipate post-op recovery and outcome. Dr Adnan provides detailed written information at the time of consultation to help you do this. You should always choose a board-certified plastic surgeon experienced in performing breast augmentation surgery.

Breast Augmentation is performed under general anaesthesia. Patients may experience mild discomfort after the surgery that can be treated with analgesics.
