Common Questions & FAQs
How do I choose the right implant size and type?
During your consultation, your surgeon will guide you through implant options based on your body proportions, lifestyle, and desired look. You’ll be able to try on sizers and discuss silicone vs. saline, shape, profile, and placement to ensure the result feels balanced and natural.
How long do breast implants last?
Breast implants are long-lasting but not lifetime devices—most last 10 to 20 years. Many women choose to replace or update them later due to personal preference or natural changes in the body.
Will I have visible scarring?
All incisions are strategically placed—typically in the breast crease or around the areola—to minimize visibility. With proper care, most scars fade significantly over time and are easily concealed in clothing and swimwear.
What are the risks and expected recovery time?
Risks include infection, implant shifting, capsular contracture, or changes in sensation, though complications are uncommon. Most patients resume light activity within a few days and return to work in 1-2 weeks, with full recovery and final results developing over several weeks.
