Breast implants: shapes, profiles, and materials (silicone, smooth, or textured)
At Maison Tóā, we only use the latest generation of Motiva silicone gel implants, renowned for their flexibility and durability. Their round shape and profile are chosen according to the patient’s body type and desired result: more prominent or more discreet and natural. Each option is discussed during the consultation in order to create a result that is perfectly suited to your figure.
Breast augmentation surgery is performed under general anesthesia. This cosmetic procedure involves inserting silicone implants to increase breast volume. Breast implants are inserted by Dr. Nordback, who takes care to choose the best technique to achieve the desired result.
The procedure lasts about an hour and may require an overnight stay in the clinic, especially if the implant is placed behind the muscle (retropectoral). In some cases, the operation can be performed on an outpatient basis, allowing the patient to return home the same day.
Choose your size using 3D simulation
The consultation always includes an implant trial session. Thanks to trial prostheses and 3D simulation software, you can immediately visualize the possible results of different sizes and shapes.
Together with surgeon Dr. Nordback, you will choose the size and type of implant, the ideal position (submuscular or subglandular), and the type of incision.
It is recommended that you have an ultrasound or mammogram before the procedure, and it is also advisable to stop smoking eight weeks before and after the operation for better recovery.
Breast lipofilling: natural augmentation through fat transfer
For patients who want augmentation without implants, breast lipofilling is an excellent alternative. The technique involves removing your own fat (often from the stomach or thighs), purifying it, and then reinjecting it into the breast. The result is soft, natural, and long-lasting. This approach also offers a slimming effect on the figure, while harmoniously reshaping the bust. The indication is discussed during a consultation when there is sufficient fat reserve.
Differences between augmentation with implants and lipofilling
Two approaches for the same goal: a harmonious shape. The choice depends on your body type, the desired volume, and the look you’re aiming for.
| Criteria | Breast implants | Breast fat grafting (lipofilling) |
|---|---|---|
| Nature of the results | Precise control over shape and size, with the option for greater volume or a more projected cleavage. | A very natural look, with a moderate volume increase (often up to about one cup size). |
| Type of procedure | General anesthesia, insertion of a silicone gel implant into a prepared pocket. | General or local anesthesia, fat is harvested (abdomen, thighs, hips), purified, then reinjected. |
| Length of the procedure | ≈ 1 hour (depending on the technique). | ≈ 2 to 3 hours (including harvesting and reinjection). |
| Recovery | Wear a support bra 24/7 for about 4 weeks; return to activities in 7–10 days. | Some of the fat naturally resorbs over 3 to 6 months; sometimes a second session is needed to stabilize the volume. |
| Specific risks | Rare: infection, rotation, capsular contracture, or implant rupture. | Partial resorption, asymmetry, and a slightly less predictable result. |
