Overview
Breast Augmentation with Silicone Implants Overview
Breast augmentation with silicone implants is a surgical procedure designed to enhance breast volume, restore lost fullness, and improve overall breast shape. At McKeown Medical, this surgery is approached with restraint and precision. Rather than focusing solely on size, careful attention is paid to proportion, symmetry, and how the breasts sit in harmony with the rest of your figure. From implant selection to surgical technique, every decision is made to support results that are elegant, balanced, and appropriate for your body.
Choosing Breast Augmentation with Silicone Implants
Silicone implants remain the most trusted and widely chosen option for breast augmentation surgery. Modern silicone gel implants are designed to be durable, safe, and long-lasting, with a softness and movement that closely mirrors natural breast tissue. This makes them particularly well-suited to patients seeking an enhancement that feels balanced, refined, and in keeping with their natural anatomy.
At McKeown Medical, only premium, CE-marked silicone implants from the most reputable manufacturers are used. This allows for careful selection of implant size, shape, and projection, ensuring the final result complements your body frame rather than overwhelming it. The focus is always on proportion, symmetry, and achieving an outcome that looks natural both in and out of clothing.
Silicone implants may be appropriate for women looking to increase breast volume, restore fullness following pregnancy or weight loss, correct asymmetry, or enhance breast shape while maintaining a natural appearance. For patients who prefer to avoid implants altogether, breast augmentation using your own fat can also be discussed during consultation where clinically suitable.
Breast Augmentation with Silicone Implants vs. Similar Procedures
Compared with fat transfer breast augmentation, silicone implants allow for greater predictability in final volume and shape. They are particularly well suited to patients seeking a clearly defined yet natural-looking enhancement, or those with limited donor fat.

Breast Augmentation with Silicone Implants
£6,195 including implantsHow It Works
Step 1: Initial Consultation
Your journey begins with your Patient Relationship Manager, who will guide you through the process and arrange your consultation with Dr Sharma. During this appointment, your goals are explored in depth, alongside a detailed assessment of your chest, breast tissue, and overall proportions.
You will receive a comprehensive written summary outlining the recommended approach, expected outcome, potential risks, and full costs, with time to reflect before making any decisions.
Step 2: Surgical Planning
Once you decide to proceed, your surgery is meticulously planned. Implant type, size, placement, and incision location are finalised to prioritise safety, symmetry, and long-term aesthetic balance.
Step 3: Pre-Op Preparation
A full medical assessment is completed by our nursing team and consultant anaesthetist. Clear guidance is provided to help optimise healing and minimise risk.
Step 4: Surgery
Breast augmentation is performed under local anaesthetic with deep sedation in our fully equipped surgical suite. The procedure typically takes around two hours and is carried out with precision and care.
You will return home the same day, with structured follow-up appointments to monitor healing, implant settling, and overall satisfaction with your results.

What To Expect Before Breast Augmentation with Silicone Implants
Preparation for surgery begins well in advance of your procedure date. Following your consultation, our clinical team will guide you through a structured pre-operative process designed to prioritise safety and optimise healing. This includes a detailed review of your medical history by our nursing team, with oversight from our consultant anaesthetist.
You will receive clear guidance on medications, lifestyle adjustments, and practical planning ahead of surgery. This typically includes avoiding nicotine and alcohol for at least two weeks and ensuring you have appropriate support arranged for your return home on the day of surgery.
What To Expect During Breast Augmentation with Silicone Implants
Breast augmentation is performed under local anaesthetic with deep sedation, allowing you to remain comfortably asleep throughout the procedure without the need for a full general anaesthetic. This approach supports a smoother recovery and is carefully monitored by our consultant anaesthetist using specialist equipment.]
The surgery itself typically takes around two hours, depending on individual anatomy and surgical planning. Once the procedure is complete and you are fully awake, most patients are able to return home the same day after a short period of observation.
What To Expect After Breast Augmentation with Silicone Implants
In the early recovery period, it is normal to experience tightness, swelling, and mild discomfort as the tissues adjust to the implants. Tailored pain relief is provided, and our nursing team will check in with you the day after surgery to ensure you are recovering comfortably.
Bruising and swelling usually peak within the first few days before gradually settling over the following weeks. You will attend scheduled follow-up appointments to monitor healing, assess implant position, and support the transition to your final result. As the implants settle, shape and softness continue to improve, with results becoming more natural over time.
Common Questions
Are silicone implants safe?
Modern silicone implants are rigorously tested, CE-marked, and considered safe when used appropriately by experienced surgeons.
Do silicone implants look more natural than saline?
Yes. Silicone implants closely replicate the softness and movement of natural breast tissue
Are silicone implants suitable for women with low body fat?
They are often ideal for slimmer patients, as they do not rely on existing fat stores.
How do I choose the right implant size and shape?
Implant selection is guided by your anatomy, chest measurements, lifestyle, and aesthetic goals.
Can silicone implants rupture, and how would I know?
Ruptures are uncommon. Modern implants are highly durable and monitored through routine follow-up.
