Breast augmentation
What is it?
Breast augmentation with implants or lipofilling (fat transfer) corrects volume considered insufficient, asymmetry, or volume loss after pregnancy or weight loss.
Who is it for?
It is intended for adults who wish to change the volume of their breasts, after a clinical examination and an analysis of their expectations.
How it is done
Consultation with choice of technique (implants, incision, size), pre-operative tests, procedure as a day case or with one night in hospital.
Anaesthesia
Usually general anaesthesia.
Recovery
A suitable bra is worn for several weeks; time off work depends on the job; sport is resumed gradually.
The result
The final result can be assessed after a few months. Implants are not for life and require regular monitoring.
Risks
Like any procedure, this one carries risks that are rare but real (infection, haematoma, healing problems, asymmetry, reaction to anaesthesia...). They are explained in detail during the consultation, with written information.

Frequently asked questions
Implants or fat?
Lipofilling suits small augmentations and requires a fat reserve; implants allow a greater increase in volume.
Do implants need to be replaced?
Regular monitoring is recommended; a replacement may be needed during one's lifetime.
How long between the consultation and the procedure?
For cosmetic surgery, French law requires a reflection period of at least 15 days after the detailed quote is given.
Where does the procedure take place?
The consultation takes place at the practice, 11 rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré, 75008 Paris. Surgical procedures are performed in an authorised facility.
I live abroad: how should I organise my trip?
Contact the practice by phone or e-mail. A first consultation in Paris is required; then plan for the 15-day reflection period and stay long enough after the procedure for the first follow-up visits.
