Breast augmentation in Dubai can boost self-confidence and improve body image. Dissatisfaction with breast size, shape, volume, and symmetry are all reasons to consider breast enlargement. These concerns may have been present throughout adult life, or they may have emerged after weight loss or pregnancy. Whatever the cause, there are several important factors to consider when deciding whether to have breast augmentation, one of the most popular cosmetic surgical procedures.
Things to consider with breast augmentation surgery.
Proportion
Maybe your breasts are small and you are considering breast augmentation in Dubai to make them fuller. It can be difficult to decide what will best meet your needs and goals. During your consultation with plastic surgeon Dr. Matteo Vigo, your height, weight, shoulder and hip width, and activity level will all be considered to choose a breast size that suits your body and lifestyle. Bringing reference photos of results you like, along with these factors, will help in choosing the ideal size and shape for you.
Silicone vs saline
When choosing breast implants in Dubai, there are two main implant materials to select from. Saline implants and cohesive silicone gel implants are both available in a range of shapes and sizes. Today’s silicone implants are approved for use and differ significantly from earlier generations, which faced restrictions in the 1990s. They have a soft, natural feel, and the cohesive gel tends to hold its shape even if the implant shell ruptures. Saline implants have been used safely for decades. The saline solution is enclosed in a silicone outer shell and is filled to the desired volume during surgery. The main disadvantage of this type of implant is deflation if the implant ruptures. This poses little health risk, but additional surgery is required to replace the implant. If there is no evidence that an implant has ruptured and you are happy with the results, there is no need to replace your implants.
Incisions and placement
During your visit, Dr. Matteo Vigo will discuss the incision and implant placement options for your boob job in Dubai. The implant can be inserted through one of three incision sites: under the breast fold, around the edge of the areola, or in the armpit (axilla). Breast implants can be placed either beneath the breast tissue (subglandular) or beneath the chest muscle (subpectoral). Each placement option has advantages; however, the right choice is individual and will be decided during your consultation. There will be surgical scars, because the procedure requires an incision. The recovery process, including how to care for and reduce the appearance of scars, will be thoroughly explained before and after your cosmetic breast surgery in Dubai.
Choosing your surgeon
The most important aspect of breast augmentation in Dubai is working with a highly qualified and experienced surgeon with whom you feel comfortable. Ensure that your surgeon is qualified and experienced and operates in an accredited facility. The best breast augmentation clinic in Dubai will have a dedicated professional team of anesthesiologists and nurses. These key aspects will guide your decision-making process. If you’re ready to take the next step, Dr. Matteo Vigo welcomes you to book a surgical consultation with him.

Patients must be at least 18 for breast augmentation, though many surgeons recommend waiting until the early twenties, when breast development is complete. There is no strict upper age limit; what matters most is good general health, realistic expectations and a stable weight. Many women choose the procedure in their thirties or forties, often after pregnancy and breastfeeding, to restore lost volume. Your surgeon will assess your suitability during the consultation.
Most women can breastfeed successfully after breast augmentation. This is particularly true when the implants are placed beneath the muscle and the incision is made in the breast fold or armpit. Incisions around the areola may carry a slightly higher risk of affecting milk ducts or nipple sensation. If you plan to have children in the future, tell your surgeon during the consultation so the incision and placement can be chosen with breastfeeding in mind.
Implants can partly obscure breast tissue on a mammogram, but you can and should continue routine breast screening. Always tell the radiographer that you have implants, so they can use special displacement views that gently move the implant aside to image more tissue. Placement beneath the muscle may make imaging slightly easier. In some cases, an ultrasound or MRI may also be recommended for a more complete assessment.
Yes. Mild to moderate asymmetry is very common, and breast augmentation can help by using implants of different sizes or profiles on each side. This brings the breasts closer together in volume and shape. Perfect symmetry is not realistic, as most women's breasts naturally differ slightly, but a noticeable improvement is often possible. Larger differences in nipple position or breast shape may need an additional lift or reduction on one side.
If your breasts have significant sagging, with the nipple sitting at or below the breast fold, implants alone may not give the result you want. In these cases, your surgeon may recommend combining augmentation with a breast lift, known as augmentation-mastopexy, to raise and reshape the breast while restoring volume. Patients with good skin elasticity and minimal sagging can usually achieve excellent results with implants alone.
