Breast augmentation,
tailored to your body.

What is breast augmentation?

Breast augmentation (breast enlargement) is a surgical procedure that increases breast size and improves shape using implants or fat transfer. In Dubai, Dr. Saba Al Marush performs breast augmentation using Preservé, Motiva, and Mentor implants – selected based on each patient’s anatomy, chest width, and aesthetic goals. The procedure involves placing implants either above or below the chest muscle through an inframammary (under-breast), periareolar, or transaxillary incision, chosen to minimise visible scarring. Patients typically choose between round and anatomical (teardrop) implants in sizes ranging from 150cc to 800cc. Surgery takes 1–2 hours under general anaesthesia, with most patients returning to daily activities within one week and full physical activity by six weeks. Results are long-lasting, with modern implants designed to maintain their shape for 10–20 years. A personalised consultation determines the optimal implant type, size, placement, and incision approach.

How to choose a breast augmentation surgeon in Dubai.

Breast augmentation is surgery you may live with for many years, so the surgeon who plans it matters more than the implant name. Check these points with any surgeon you are considering, including us.

• Licence: the surgeon should hold an active licence as a specialist plastic surgeon with the Dubai Health Authority (DHA) or the Dubai Healthcare City Authority. Our guide shows how to check a plastic surgeon’s UAE licence.
• Hospital: surgery should take place in a licensed hospital with an anaesthetist. Dr Saba operates at Dr Sulaiman Al Habib Hospital, Dubai Healthcare City.
• Measured planning: implant size and shape should come from your chest measurements and tissue, not from a cup size alone.
• Implant records: ask which implant will be used and make sure you receive its details and serial card after surgery.
• The long term: ask what happens if you later want a change. Dr Saba also performs implant removal, implant exchange and capsulectomy.

Dr Saba sees every patient herself at consultation and at follow-up, in English, Arabic or French. Book your consultation.

Fat transfer to the breast.

If you prefer not to have implants, Dr Saba can enlarge the breast with your own fat. Fat is taken by liposuction from an area such as the abdomen, flanks or thighs, purified and injected in small amounts into the breast.

• It is a long operation: usually 5 hours or more.
• The gain is modest: typically about one cup size fuller, or less.
• Part of the transferred fat does not survive, so the final size settles over the following months.
• You need enough spare fat to harvest, which a consultation checks.

Fat transfer suits women who want a subtle, natural change and some body contouring at the same time. For a larger change, implants are usually the better route. See fat transfer in Dubai for the other areas Dr Saba treats.
