Breast Augmentation Surgery in Pune
Implants, Fat Transfer & Hybrid Technique
Breast augmentation surgery enhances breast size, shape, symmetry, and body proportion. At Dr. DC Plastic Surgery in Pune, you have three technique options: silicone implants, autologous fat transfer, or the hybrid approach that combines both.
Breast Augmentation At A Glance
| TECHNIQUE USED | DURATION | ANAESTHESIA | HOSPITAL STAY | RECOVERY | COST RANGE | RESULTS |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Implants / Fat / Hybrid | 1.5 – 3 hrs | General | Same-day discharge | 4 – 6 weeks | ₹1.8 L – ₹3 L | Visible at month 4 – 6 |
A Personalised Approach to Breast Enhancement
Breast augmentation is a cosmetic procedure that enhances breast size, shape, symmetry, and body proportion. The procedure is performed under general anaesthesia in a hospital setting with same-day discharge. Depending on individual goals, body type, and anatomy, we offer three primary technique options at Dr. DC Plastic Surgery in Pune.
Our preferred approach for 55-65% of patients is the hybrid technique — combining silicone implants for predictable volume with the patient’s own purified fat for natural contouring, softer feel, and three-dimensional cleavage improvement. Every surgical plan is personalised using Arbrea 3D simulation paired with external sizer trial, so patients can see and feel their potential outcome before surgery.

KNOWLEDGE CENTRE
ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT BREAST AUGMENTATION
How Is Breast Augmentation Surgery Performed?
The breast augmentation journey at Dr. DC Plastic Surgery follows a structured, patient-centred process from first consultation to final result. The procedure itself is performed under general anaesthesia in a hospital setting with same-day discharge.
Consultation
20-30 minute structured assessment with Arbrea 3D simulation and external sizer trial.
Surgery Duration
Implants ~1.5 hrs · Fat transfer 2-3 hrs · Hybrid ~2 hrs
No-Touch Technique
Keller funnel insertion with PI-TAB antimicrobial irrigation in every case.
Structured Follow-Up
48-72 hrs, 1 week, 2 weeks, and periodic reviews up to 6 months.
What Implant Types and Brands Are Available?
Dr. DC Plastic Surgery uses four internationally recognised implant brands: Silimed, Motiva, Cereform, and Polytech. These brands are selected for their high safety standards, durable shell technology, natural feel, and consistent long-term performance. These are FDA & CE approved implants.
Patients can choose between round implants for fuller upper pole projection and teardrop (anatomical) implants for a more natural slope. Surface options include smooth and nano-textured finishes. Traditional textured implants are not used at the clinic. The available size range is 230-500 CC, with the most commonly selected range being 275-350 CC. Modern 5th and 6th generation implants are designed for long-term durability, with an expected lifespan of 15-20 years or more.
| Feature | Options Available |
| Implant shape | Round, Teardrop (anatomical) |
| Surface type | Smooth, Nano-textured |
| Brands | Silimed, Motiva, Cereform, Polytech |
| Size range | 230-500 CC |
| Most common size | 275-350 CC |
| Certification | FDA & CE approved |
| Expected lifespan | 15-20+ years |
How Do Patients Choose the Right Implant Size?
Choosing the right implant size is a collaborative process that goes well beyond picking a number. Dr. Dhruv Chavan begins with detailed breast and chest measurements, assessing breast width, chest wall dimensions, skin elasticity, and nipple position to determine a suitable size range for each patient’s frame.
Patients then use the Arbrea 3D simulation system, which creates a digital visualisation of how different implant sizes and shapes will look on their specific body. This is paired with a physical sizer trial, where external implant sizers are placed inside a surgical bra so patients can experience the volume firsthand. The combination of precise measurements, 3D visualisation, and physical trial allows confident, personalised decisions and significantly reduces the chance of post-surgery size dissatisfaction.
For a deeper look at how implant sizes work, including CC volumes, profiles, and how they relate to cup size, see our detailed guide: Breast Implant Sizes Explained.
What Are the Breast Augmentation Techniques?
Dr. DC Plastic Surgery offers four established breast augmentation approaches. The choice depends on goals, anatomy, existing tissue, and lifestyle factors.
1. Silicone Implants Only
Predictable, noticeable volume increase using FDA/CE-approved implants. Brands: Silimed, Motiva, Cereform, Polytech. Smooth and nano-textured surfaces only.
2. Fat Transfer Only (Autologous)
Subtle, natural enhancement up to one cup size using the patient’s own purified fat from donor sites (abdomen, thighs, flanks).
3. Hybrid (Implant + Fat Transfer)
Silicone implant for volume and projection combined with 60-80 ml purified fat per breast for contour refinement. Used in 55-65% of cases.
Camouflages implant edges, creates softer feel, improves cleavage in three dimensions: width, height, and depth.
4. Breast Lift + Augmentation
Combined procedure for volume loss with sagging, typically after pregnancy or breastfeeding. Lifts breast position while restoring volume.
For patients with both volume loss and sagging, particularly after pregnancy and breastfeeding, a breast lift combined with augmentation addresses both concerns in a single procedure. More detail on the lift component is available on our breast lift surgery page.
For patients interested in fat transfer as a standalone option, our breast fat transfer page covers the procedure in full detail.
Where Are Implants Placed in the Breast?
Implant placement is determined by each patient’s tissue thickness, skin quality, chest muscle anatomy, degree of sagging, desired size, and activity level. Dr. Dhruv Chavan uses two placement approaches.
Dual plane is the most commonly performed placement at the clinic. The implant sits partially beneath the chest muscle in the upper portion, adding an extra layer of muscle coverage that hides implant edges and upper borders. This produces a fuller, more natural upper pole contour and gives the appearance of natural augmentation even with a relatively smaller implant size. Dual plane placement is especially beneficial for thinner patients with limited soft tissue coverage, and consistently delivers the most natural-looking, long-lasting results.
Subfascial placement positions the implant below the muscle fascia but above the muscle itself. This approach is preferred in patients with adequate soft tissue coverage and minimal sagging, offering good implant support with a faster recovery. Neither subglandular (above the muscle) nor full submuscular placement is routinely offered.
What Incision Technique Is Used?
The inframammary fold incision (under the breast crease) is Dr. Dhruv Chavan’s preferred approach for the majority of cases. This ~3-4 cm incision provides excellent surgical visibility and precision for implant placement, and the resulting scar is well hidden within the natural breast crease.
All implants are inserted using a Keller funnel, a sterile no-touch technique that allows the implant to be placed without contact with skin or gloves, reducing contamination risk and helping prevent capsular contracture. Periareolar incision (around the nipple) may be used selectively depending on areola size, breast anatomy, and patient preference.
Who Is an Ideal Candidate for Breast Augmentation?
Ideal candidates are women aged 18 or older with completed breast development, BMI 18.5-30, stable weight for 3-6 months, and realistic expectations. The most common patient profiles are women in their 20s to early 30s seeking volume enhancement, and women in their mid-30s to 40s with post-pregnancy volume loss.
✓Good Candidates
- Age 18+ with completed breast development
- BMI between 18.5 and 30
- Stable weight for 3-6 months
- Good general health
- Self-motivated decision
- Non-smoker or willing to quit 4 weeks pre/post
✗Not Currently Suitable
- Pregnancy or active breastfeeding
- Uncontrolled diabetes or hypertension
- Active breast infection or untreated lumps
- Active or recent breast cancer
- Body dysmorphic disorder
- External pressure rather than personal choice
What Are the Benefits and Limitations?
Breast augmentation delivers high patient satisfaction (95-98%) but is major surgery with real considerations. Both should be understood before deciding.
Benefits
- 95-98% patient satisfaction rate
- Results last 10-20+ years with stable weight
- Three technique options for personalisation
- Arbrea 3D simulation for pre-visualisation
- Breastfeeding usually remains possible
- Hybrid approach offers natural feel and shape
- Improved confidence, body proportion, and clothing options
- Minimal incision technique for better scar outcomes
Limitations
- Requires general anaesthesia
- 4-6 week recovery for implant procedures
- Capsular contracture risk 5-7% over 10-15 years
- 24/7 compression garment required initially
- Minor scarring (3-4 cm), fades over 12-18 months
- Not covered by insurance (cosmetic classification)
- Implants may eventually need replacement if problems arise (1-2% revision rate)
- Results can be affected by pregnancy, significant weight change, and natural ageing
- Pre-op lifestyle changes required (smoking, alcohol cessation)
For detailed complication rates, prevention protocols, and implant longevity data, see our risks and complications page. For success metrics, patient stories, and long-term outcome data, visit our results page.
How Long Does Recovery Take?
Most patients return to desk work in 4-5 days, light exercise at week 3-4, and see final results at month 4-6. Recovery varies meaningfully by technique chosen.
- Day 1-3
- Week 1
- Week 2-4
- Month 2-3
- Month 4-6

What Should I Expect Before, During, and After?
Before Surgery
20-30 minute consultation with detailed measurements, Arbrea 3D simulation, and external sizer trial. Pre-operative tests completed. Surgery scheduled 3-10 days later. Smoking stopped 4 weeks prior, alcohol 2 weeks prior.
During Surgery
General anaesthesia in hospital setting. Duration 1.5-3 hours depending on technique. Inframammary fold incision (3-4 cm). Keller funnel no-touch insertion with PI-TAB irrigation. Same-day discharge.
After Surgery
First dressing change at 48 hours. Dissolvable sutures. Front-open surgical support bra from day one. Structured follow-up at 48-72 hrs, 1 week, 2 weeks, then periodic reviews up to 6 months.
For a detailed walkthrough of the consultation process, what to bring, 3D simulation details, and how to book, see our consultation page. For the complete recovery timeline, visit our recovery page.
What Post-Operative Care Is Required?
Structured post-operative care is critical to recovery quality and long-term results. The following protocol is followed across all patients.
Support Garment
Front-open surgical support bra worn 24/7 from day one. Switch to supportive non-underwire bra at week 4. Garment cost ₹4,000-₹6,000 (not included in package).
Sleeping Position
Back, head and upper body slightly elevated for 3-4 weeks. No side or stomach sleeping. Wedge pillow recommended.
Showering
From 48-72 hours (typically Day 3). Avoid rubbing, scrubbing, or pressure. Foam soap in hands and apply gently. Pat dry — do not rub with towel.
Scar Care
Silicone gel or sheets from day 14. Gentle massage from week 3-4. SPF 50+ sun protection for 6-8 months. 3-4 laser sessions included in package.
Implant Massage
Routine implant massage exercises begin around week 3-6. Specific technique demonstrated at follow-up visit.
Hair Washing: Usually allowed after three to four days with assistance, keeping arm movements minimal. A practical tip is to sit on a stool and bend the head and neck downward and forward while washing, which avoids lifting arms above the shoulders and makes the process more comfortable during early recovery.
Follow-up Schedule: Appointments at 48-72 hours, one week, two weeks, and periodic reviews for up to six months. The clinical team is accessible for any concerns between scheduled visits, and an active follow-up system using calls and messages monitors recovery progress.
Lifestyle Precautions: Maintain a stable weight for best long-term results. Significant weight gain (more than 5-7 kg) can affect breast shape. Smoking impacts tissue quality and healing and should be avoided long-term. Continue wearing supportive bras during physical activity, especially with larger implants.
