What is breast augmentation surgery?
Breast augmentation is a surgical procedure. It aims to reshape the size and shape of the breasts. This surgery most often involves breast implants. Shape, size and material are chosen in advance by the patient to suit her.
The surgeon places the prostheses in front of or behind the pectoral muscle. To do this, he makes an incision which, again, depends on the preferences of the patient and the surgeon. It’s also important to ensure that your surgery is performed in a renowned clinic by a renowned surgeon, as is the case at the Claris Clinic.
Why choose breast augmentation?
Very often, it’s a complex that drives women to undergo breast augmentation. They feel that their breasts are too small, or that they have a complex due to asymmetry. They would like to increase the size of their breasts to achieve a more balanced silhouette.
Aesthetics are the main reason why women undergo breast augmentation. Nevertheless, this is a procedure that also has a long-term psychological impact. It enables patients to regain full self-confidence afterwards.
How does breast augmentation work?
Preliminary consultation
The preliminary consultation is a privileged exchange with your surgeon. During this exchange, you’ll explain your expectations and motivations. You’ll also talk about the size and types of implants you’d like. You’ll be guided and advised by your expert.
Operation sequence
The operation is performed under general anaesthetic and lasts around 45 minutes. During the procedure, your surgeon uses the utmost precision to incise and place your implants in the way agreed beforehand. You can then relax in one of our rooms before returning home.
After the operation
At Claris Clinic near Waterloo, we take your recovery very seriously. It is essential that you attend your post-operative appointments. In fact, they are an integral part of the success of your breast augmentation. The surgeon will make sure you fit your breast implants properly. He will also check that healing is going well.

- Peri-areolar incision which is made on the areola of the breasts

There are three positions for implants used in breast augmentation:
