Breast Augmentation in Montreal

Incision Placement

Breast augmentation is typically performed under general anesthesia, although implant exchanges can be done under local anesthesia with sedation in select cases. Dr. Lee utilizes the inframammary fold incision, located in the crease beneath the breast, which effectively conceals scars. This technique enhances visibility and control during surgery, ensuring precise implant placement and natural results.

Implant Pocket Creation

Dr. Lee creates the implant pocket using one of the following methods:

• Submuscular: The implant is placed under the pectoralis muscle, minimizing visibility and reducing the risk of complications.
• Subglandular: The implant is positioned above the muscle, resulting in less discomfort and a quicker recovery.
• Dual-Plane: A combination of both methods offers advantages such as reduced visibility and a lower risk of complications.

Implant Positioning

Using implant sizers, Dr. Lee will assess the placement and symmetry of the implants in a seated position before finalizing the size and shape. This ensures that the results are visually appealing and natural-looking. The surgery concludes with careful closure of the incision using absorbable sutures.

Enhanced Self-Confidence

One of the most significant benefits of breast augmentation is the boost in self-esteem that many patients experience. Whether you’ve felt self-conscious about the size of your breasts or have noticed changes in volume due to weight fluctuations or pregnancy, this procedure can help you feel more comfortable and confident in your own skin.

Improved Body Proportions

Breast augmentation allows you to achieve a more balanced body shape. By increasing the size of your breasts, you can create a more proportionate figure, which may lead to a more flattering silhouette in clothing. This can enhance not only your appearance but also how you feel in various outfits, boosting your overall body image.

Restored Volume and Shape

Pregnancy, aging, and weight loss can lead to changes in breast shape and volume. Breast augmentation can help restore fullness and shape, allowing you to reclaim a youthful look. Whether you choose silicone gel or saline implants, the procedure can effectively enhance your breast contour, giving you the results you desire.

Customizable Options

Breast augmentation is highly customizable, meaning you can choose the type, size, and shape of implants that best suit your body and aesthetic goals. With the guidance of a skilled plastic surgeon like Dr. James Lee, you can explore various options, ensuring your results align perfectly with your personal vision.

Long-Lasting Results

With proper care, the results of breast augmentation can be long-lasting. Silicone gel implants are designed to provide durability, typically lasting 10 to 20 years before maintenance may be needed. This means you can enjoy your enhanced appearance for years to come with regular follow-ups to monitor your implants’ condition.
