Here are the key differences between your augmentation options:

• Augmentation With Implants 

Implants are a great choice if you want a significant increase in breast size (1 to 4 cups).

• Augmentation Without Implants 

Natural Fat Transfer is a great option if you do not want implants and you’re interested in a more subtle change in breast size (1 to 1.5 cups).

Natural Fat transfer is growing in popularity because of the added benefit of Body Contouring. Liposuction is performed to collect fat from other areas of your body, such as your tummy, lovehandles, and thighs so you are getting two cosmetic surgeries (body contouring and breast augmentation) in one operation. For Natural Fat Transfer Breast Augmentation, it’s important to note that some of your fat can be reabsorbed by the body, so you may lose some volume over time. If this occurs, you may need a secondary treatment.

Augmentation with implants is currently the most popular choice at Dr. Avi Islur’s cosmetic surgery practice.

The top two reasons why most patients choose augmentation with implants:

1. Implants offer the ability to significantly increase the size of your breasts
2. Implants offer a set volume change that will not decrease overtime

Now that you have a basic understanding of the two different types of augmentation that Dr. Avi Islur offers, let’s get into more specific details for each type of surgery.

Suzanne talks about everything from preparing for a consultation, choosing a surgeon, recovering, and everything in between. Your surgery will be custom tailored to your unique needs and desired aesthetic results, individual results may vary.

Augmentation with implants balances the shape and feel of your breasts. The size of your breasts can be increased anywhere from 1 to 5 cup sizes with implants. Dr. Avi Islur works with the new generation of round, smooth, silicone gel-filled implants, and structured saline-filled implants created by the worldwide leaders in breast aesthetics. The highest quality implants with unmatched strength and durability.

Silicone gel-filled implants are for use in both cosmetic and reconstructive breast surgery. Silicone gel-filled implants are specially designed with a form stable cohesive gel that will not leak, deflate or change shape. Silicone is very safe and is the benchmark used for biological compatibility within the human body.

Dr. Avi Islur also offers a new generation of round saline-filled implants called The Ideal Implant.

The Ideal Implant offers a unique, innovative internal structure designed to control movement of the saline filler that supports the upper pole of the breast for beautiful, natural looking results.

Dr. Avi Islur works with round smooth shell breast implants. The volume and projection of your implants will be determined according to your desired aesthetic results and your unique surgical requirements. All of your options will be presented at the time of your in-clinic consultation so you can see and feel the difference.

Breast implants are inserted through an inframammary (breast crease) incision or a peri-areolar (nipple) incision. Incisions are kept quite small as Dr. Avi Islur uses a Keller Funnel in all breast surgery procedures. The Keller Funnel technique decreases the size of your incision line by 40 to 60%.

The position of your implant is an important factor in achieving natural looking breasts. Implants can be placed above or partially below your chest muscle. The placement of your implants will depend on the amount of breast tissue you have prior to surgery.

Surgical incision, position and type of implant will be based on your individual characteristics and measurements. This will be discussed at your initial consultation with Dr. Avi Islur.

Breast augmentation is performed under general anesthesia in about 1 to 2 hours.

• Plan to take about 5 to 7 days off work for recovery time.
• Every patient heals at her own pace. You may be able to return to work much earlier than others, however, it’s a good idea to have a few extra days booked off work for recovery time.
• The length of time to book off work depends on the type of augmentation you are having and whether your job is physically demanding. Dr. Avi Islur will give you a specific recovery guide at the time of your initial consultation.
• Doctor notes are available and are very confidential. Your doctors note will not indicate the type of surgery you are having.
• Restrict strenuous aerobic activities, exercise and heavy lifting for 2 weeks following surgery. Avoid physical activities that will increase your heart rate and blood pressure or cause your breasts to move significantly.
• Do not massage your breasts for at least 1 full month after your surgery. Dr. Avi Islur will give you specific post operative care instructions.
• Your surgery and recovery will be custom tailored to your unique needs, individual surgical results and recovery instructions may vary.
• If you are an out of town patient and have your breast augmentation in Winnipeg, you will have specific follow up instructions provided to you at the time of your consultation.

Breast implant surgery is often combined with other cosmetic procedures such as tummy tuck surgery, breast lift, and a mommy makeover.

• Bring photos that demonstrate your augmentation goals so Dr. Avi Islur can get a clear visual of the look you’re going for.
• Bring a padded bra that reflects your augmentation goals. During your consultation, you will be able to see, touch, feel, and try implants on. This allows you to compare size, shape, and projection between your implant options and your favorite padded bra.
• Bring a tight fitting t-shirt or tank-top with you. Seeing yourself with a shirt on makes it easier to determine the changes you’d like to see.

The surgeon you decide to work with is the #1 determining factor on the results you’re going to achieve.

Plastic Surgeons price their procedures according to the quality care and surgical skills they bring to their patients. Seeking out a surgeon based on price often leads to undesirable results, and the problems that come along with it are often complex (and costly) to fix. Ask anyone who has undergone revision surgery, it’s a lot less expensive to get it done right, the first time.

Breast Implant surgery starts at $8,500. The exact cost of your breast augmentation surgery depends on the extent of your surgery. For example, are you getting a breast lift with your augmentation? Are you getting an Internal Bra? Everyone’s surgery is personalized according to their desired aesthetic results and unique surgical requirements.
