Breast Augmentation Toronto

For most people when they think about cosmetic surgery trends, they immediately think about breast implants. In the last several years breast augmentation has overtaken liposuction as the most popular cosmetic surgical procedure. Dr. Jugenburg, of the Toronto Cosmetic Surgery Institute, is a leading specialist of breast augmentation in Toronto and he has certainly noticed this trend. He has performed countless breast augmentation surgeries in Toronto including breast implants, breast lifts, and fat grafting to the breasts. But cosmetic surgery trends are not just about what general type of procedure is most popular, specific trends regarding how the procedure is carried out can also change.

Breast Augmentation Trends – silicone vs. saline

One part of the decision to get breast implants is to determine whether you want saline-filled or silicone-filled implants. Saline implants are filled with a salt-water solution known as saline, while silicone implants are now filled with cohesive silicone, a semi-solid gel. Currently, saline-filled implants are most commonly used, but silicone implants are becoming increasing popular due to improvements of the implants and continued FDA approval. While trends may change, it is important to work with your surgeon to determine the right implant for you because every body is different and there are different pros and cons for each kind of implant. It is encouraged that you don’t rule out either one until speaking with your surgeon.

Cosmetic Surgery Toronto – finding the right surgeon

If you are looking for a clinic performing breast augmentation in Toronto, Toronto Cosmetic Surgery Institute is the place to go. Dr. Jugenburg uses the latest techniques, including a virtually scarless technique called trans-axillary breast augmentation, where the incision is made in the armpit. This technique is one of the reasons he has noticed a rising breast augmentation trend in Toronto.
