Breast augmentation (implants)

Breast augmentation with implants is one of the most requested cosmetic surgery procedures. It increases the volume of breasts considered too small, restores a bust that has deflated after pregnancy or weight loss, or corrects breast asymmetry. The choice of implant — round or anatomical shape, volume, projection — and its position (in front of or behind the pectoral muscle) is determined during in-depth consultations, based on body shape, tissue quality and the desired result. Volume sizing trials help the patient visualise the outcome and choose with peace of mind. The implants used are latest-generation prostheses meeting the strictest international standards. The incisions are short and discreet, most often in the inframammary fold, and current techniques make the post-operative recovery considerably more comfortable than in the past. At Clinique Pasteur Tunis, breast augmentation is performed in an operating theatre meeting international standards, with a short hospital stay in a comfortable room and regular follow-up of the result and the implants over time.
