Before & After Breast Implants
What are Breast Implants?
Silicone Breast Implants
Silicone Breast Implants are made from a synthetic material that closely mimics the feel of natural breast tissue. Available in a variety of sizes, shapes, and firmness levels, silicone implants are often preferred for their realistic, natural look and soft texture. They provide a balanced, proportionate enhancement, though they do carry a slightly higher risk of rupture. Patients must be at least 22 years old to receive silicone implants.
Saline Gel Breast Implants
Saline Gel Breast Implants are another popular option. These implants have a silicone outer shell filled with sterilized saline water. Saline implants often feel firmer than natural breast tissue, and some patients appreciate this added structure. They require smaller incisions, which can result in smaller scars, but some patients notice a “rippling” effect that may be visible through the skin. Patients must be at least 18 years old to receive saline implants.
Breast Augmentation with Fat Transfer
Breast Augmentation with Fat Transfer is an alternative for women who prefer to avoid artificial implants. This technique uses fat harvested from other areas of the patient’s body to naturally add volume to the breasts. Fat transfer is best for women seeking a modest increase in size, as some fat may be reabsorbed by the body over time. This approach offers a natural, chemical-free enhancement for those looking to avoid implants altogether.
Dr. Awada works closely with each patient to determine the best option based on anatomy, lifestyle, and aesthetic goals, ensuring natural, beautiful, and long-lasting results.
Am I a Candidate for Breast Implants?
You may be a candidate if you:
- Have never been satisfied with the size of their breasts and desire a bit more volume
- Have noticed significant loss of breast volume following pregnancy or major weight fluctuations
- Have asymmetrical breasts and wish to achieve a more balanced appearance
- Are in good overall health with no underlying conditions that would interfere with healing
- Have consulted with an experienced plastic surgeon and have reasonable expectations about the process
Benefits of Breast Implants
Women choose breast implants for a variety of reasons. Many seek to restore natural-looking volume after pregnancy or weight changes, while others wish to improve symmetry and correct uneven breasts for a more proportionate figure. Breast implants can also boost confidence, enhancing curves and improving the way clothing fits. With Dr. Mariam Awada, each procedure is customized, including implant type, size, and placement, to ensure the most natural, balanced results for every patient.

What to Expect with Dr. Mariam Awada
The Consultation
During your private consultation, you’ll meet one-on-one with Dr. Awada. She will listen to your concerns, discuss your goals, and create a personalized plan for your breast implant types and sizes, and explore incision and placement options.
Preparing for Surgery
To ensure the best outcome, Dr. Awada will provide detailed preparation instructions. Patients are advised to stop smoking or using nicotine products, avoid medications that increase bleeding risk, and arrange for help at home during the initial recovery period.
The Procedure
Performed in our accredited surgical suite under general anesthesia, breast implant surgery typically takes 1–2 hours. Dr. Awada carefully places the implant for a natural contour and minimal scarring.
Recovery Timeline
Recovery is gradual, with some soreness, swelling, and bruising in the first few days. Most women return to work after about a week, though jobs requiring heavy lifting may need more downtime. Compression garments and supportive bras help aid healing, and results continue to improve as swelling fades over the following weeks.
Results & Scarring
Breast implant results are long-lasting and designed to look natural. Scars are strategically placed and typically fade over time. Following Dr. Awada’s post-operative instructions ensures optimal healing and a beautiful outcome.

What is Breast Implant Illness (BII)?
Breast Implant Illness (BII) is a term used by some patients to describe a variety of systemic symptoms they believe are related to their implants, including fatigue, joint pain, brain fog, and other general health concerns. While there is currently no definitive scientific test linking these symptoms directly to breast implants, some patients choose to have their implants removed or replaced if they experience persistent discomfort.
Dr. Mariam Awada discusses all potential risks during consultation and can provide guidance on monitoring symptoms, implant options, and safe removal if necessary, helping each patient make an informed decision about their breast health.
