Breast Implants
Breast augmentation is a specialised surgical procedure focused on augmenting the breast volume and shape to correspond with an individual’s unique physique and personal objectives.
This procedure is typically conducted by placing implants or grafting fat into the breast area to create a tailored change. Such a procedure might be considered by those seeking alterations in their breast contour, which may be motivated by personal preference for a different breast profile or by physiological changes from events like pregnancy or weight fluctuations.
The decision to undergo breast augmentation is a personal one and encompasses a range of reasons. Each individual’s circumstances are unique, and thus, the approach to breast augmentation is highly personalised. Dr. Raja Sawhney’s experience in this area ensures that every procedure is carefully planned and executed to align with the patient’s physical goals.
Dr. Sawhney’s Approach to Breast Augmentation
Dr. Raja Sawhney’s methodology in breast augmentation is deeply rooted in an all-encompassing understanding of the patient’s anatomical structure and their individual aspirations for the surgery. His extensive experience, coupled with his contributions to the education of fellow plastic surgeons, has positioned him to offer an informed and thoughtful approach to each procedure.
In his practice, Dr. Sawhney employs the internal bra method, an advanced technique that establishes enduring support for implants, potentially enhancing their stability and placement over time. He chooses Motiva implants for their high patient satisfaction rates and the diversity of options they provide, ensuring a tailored fit for various body types. Dr. Sawhney evaluates each patient’s personal goals and anatomical nuances to determine whether to utilise implants, autologous fat grafting, or a hybrid approach. Additionally, he may recommend complementary procedures, like liposuction, to refine the overall breast contour.
Dr. Sawhney’s reputation as an educator and innovator in plastic surgery is well-established, having presented at numerous international symposiums, sharing his techniques and the potential outcomes that can be achieved through his developed methods.
The Breast Augmentation Consultation
The pathway to breast augmentation with Dr. Sawhney begins with an in-depth consultation. This foundational step is an opportunity for patients to articulate their motivations and the physical changes they wish to achieve. Dr. Sawhney places a high value on patient education, ensuring individuals are equipped to make informed choices that resonate with their personal desires and way of life.
During this consultative process, Dr. Sawhney provides extensive information on implant types, the intricacies of fat transfer, and the transformative possibilities of combining these approaches. He shares an extensive array of before-and-after photos, offering tangible examples of what can be accomplished through surgery. This step is essential in establishing realistic expectations and ensuring patients have a clear understanding of the potential changes.
A detailed physical assessment is also conducted to gauge factors like skin quality, breast tissue, and overall body structure, which are critical to customising the surgical plan. The consultation is interactive, with Dr. Sawhney encouraging questions and providing clear, comprehensive answers.
The “Internal Bra” method in breast augmentation
Although not required for all breast augmentation procedures, Dr. Sawhney recommends this technique for many patients depending on various factors of their anatomy, size of implants used, and specific aesthetic results they desire. Breast augmentation procedures conducted by Dr. Raja Sawhney often incorporate the innovative internal bra method, a technique pivotal to achieving longer lasting outcomes than when the method isn’t utilised.
This method involves creating an internal support system within the breast tissue, functioning similarly to an external bra but with more permanence and stability. It’s especially beneficial for patients requiring substantial adjustments or seeking to maintain the positioning of breast implants over time. The internal bra method is designed to provide a supportive framework from within, aiming to assist in maintaining the desired position and form of the breast post-surgery. This technique is particularly advantageous in cases where previous surgeries might not have yielded the expected results or where additional support is necessary to achieve the desired outcome.
Dr. Sawhney’s application of the internal bra method in breast augmentation is a testament to his commitment to employing advanced surgical techniques for optimal patient outcomes. This method not only contributes to the aesthetic aspect of breast augmentation but also provides benefits to the functional quality of the results. Patients undergoing breast augmentation with the internal bra technique can anticipate a more stable and enduring outcome. The method is tailored to each individual’s anatomy and surgical history, ensuring that the approach aligns precisely with their unique physical structure and aesthetic goals.
The 3 options for techniques in breast augmentation
There is no better or worse option for techniques in breast augmentation, moreso different methods, producing different results, for different patients. Dr. Sawhney will perform an in depth consultation gathering knowledge on your aesthetic goals, and recommend the optimal option for you to align with those goals to produce a desired aesthetic outcome. This will be tailored to various characteristics of your anatomy.
Option 1 – Breast implants
At Sculpted, the choice of breast augmentation method is carefully tailored to each patient’s unique needs and aesthetic goals. One such method involves the use of breast implants, a widely recognized option for altering breast volume and shape. Breast implants, particularly silicone types like Motiva, are selected for their diverse range of shapes and sizes, making them suitable for various body types and personal preferences. These implants are known for their role in creating a significant change in breast volume and contour.
Dr. Sawhney, with his extensive experience in plastic surgery, carefully assesses each patient’s physique and desired outcomes, recommending breast implants when they align with achieving the patient’s aesthetic objectives.
The use of breast implants in augmentation is particularly suited for patients seeking a considerable change in breast size or those requiring a specific shape that cannot be achieved through fat transfer alone. The implants offer a level of predictability in terms of size and shape post-surgery. In consultations at Sculpted, Dr. Sawhney discusses the various implant options, focusing on how each can contribute to the desired change in the breast area. His approach ensures that the chosen implants complement the patient’s overall body frame, working towards a harmonious physical appearance.
Option 2 – Fat transfer
Another method employed at Sculpted is fat transfer for breast augmentation. This technique involves harvesting fat from other areas of the patient’s body and transferring it to the breasts. It is an option for those seeking a more modest increase in breast volume or for patients who prefer to use their own body tissue for augmentation. Fat transfer can provide a change in breast volume and shape, with the added benefit of contouring the areas from where the fat is harvested.
Dr. Sawhney’s experience in body contouring and fat transfer techniques plays a pivotal role in determining if this method aligns with the patient’s physical structure and desired changes.
Fat transfer for breast augmentation is often chosen by patients who desire a subtle, more gradual change in their breast size. This method is also appreciated for its dual benefit of contouring the donor site, where the fat is taken from, leading to a more comprehensive body reshaping. Dr. Sawhney evaluates each patient’s body composition and volume requirements to ascertain if fat transfer is the most suitable option. During the consultation, he discusses the expected outcomes of fat transfer, ensuring patients have a clear understanding of the potential changes and the natural limitations of this method.
Option 3- Hybrid method of both implants, in addition to fat transfer
Dr. Sawhney also offers a hybrid approach to breast augmentation, combining both implants and fat transfer. This technique is ideal for patients who seek the volume increase provided by implants and the natural contouring and fine-tuning possible with fat transfer. Dr. Sawhney recommends this approach when it aligns with achieving a patient’s specific aesthetic goals, particularly in cases where enhanced volume and a bespoke contour are desired simultaneously.
The hybrid method allows for a more customised result, adjusting both size and shape while ensuring a harmonious overall appearance.
The hybrid approach of using both implants and fat transfer is a testament to Dr. Sawhney’s commitment to personalised patient care. It allows for a tailored outcome, where the implants provide the primary change in size, and the fat transfer is used to refine and contour the breast and surrounding areas. This method requires a high level of skill and understanding of breast anatomy, which Dr. Sawhney possesses, ensuring that the final result aligns with the patient’s body frame and aesthetic desires. During consultations, Dr. Sawhney thoroughly explains the benefits and considerations of this approach, helping patients make informed decisions about their breast augmentation journey.
