The vast majority of our breast postop patients feel better in clothing, in swimwear, and out of clothing. The surgery gives them a tremendous and happy boost in self-confidence and self-esteem which is often surprising, even to themselves. Some of our patients report a significant new willingness to undertake projects, or to enter relationships which previously they'd not have had the confidence to consider.

We have in-office implants sizers, for you to use in deciding on size.
PROCEDURE
Breast augmentation is done under general anaesthetic by inserting saline or silicone gel implants under the breast area. There are several choices for implant/incision placement, and you and our surgeons will work on the decision together.
After augmentation surgery, you will experience significant discomfort and restriction of arm motion for several days. Your pain can be controlled with medication. Swelling will last for 2-3 weeks. Some patients experience temporary numbness of the nipples.
Recovery times vary according to the implant placement. When implants are placed under the muscle, recovery time to routine activities is 7 days. Return to active exercise is 4-6 weeks. Recovery time will be slightly shorter if your implants are placed above the muscle.
Breast augmentation is real surgery. Before you decide, it's important to learn about any possible complications, even though they are rare. These will be fully explained to you during your private consultation with our surgeons. At that time, you will have an opportunity for a careful and complete discussion of your options and what is involved. You will benefit from asking all your questions and browsing through our photographs.
BEFORE & AFTER PHOTOS
We have before and after photos in our office, and you'd benefit from coming to have a look at them, ahead of your consultation, if you wish. In the interests of confidentiality and privacy we don't publish them on the internet. The photos in the laser sections are provided by the manufacturer, and are not our patients.
If you'd benefit from our services, please give us a call at 604 734-1416 and we'll be happy to answer some preliminary questions, or arrange an appointment for you.
