Where Will Your Procedure Be Performed & How Long Will It Take?
In Red Deer breast augmentation surgery is commonly performed on an outpatient basis at a hospital or state-of-the-art surgical unit while the patient is under a general anesthesia and asleep. Once the anesthesia has been administered to the patient the breast tissue is raised to create an open pocket under the tissue or beneath the chest wall muscle. The operation time can vary depending on the size of your breast implants where typically 300cc and 400cc implants can last anywhere from 1 to 3 hours. Please note that during your consultation process your physician will speak in detail as to where he will be performing your procedure.

How To Determine Your Ideal Cup Size In CC’s
We have been asked many times how to tell how many cc’s equates to a certain cup size. After receiving so many questions from women in Red Deer we decided create an easy to use guide to answer your questions.

These calculations are based on implant widths, projections, circumferences, and bra sizes in order to calculate volumes as accurately as possible. *Note this guide is for women who are already starting with a B Cup. Here is our breakdown of the number of CC’s and what cup size it roughly equals.

What Is The Recovery Process Like?
Generally, post-operative instructions call for plenty of rest and limited movement in order to speed up the healing process and recovery time. Bandages are applied right after surgery to aid the healing process and to minimize movement of the breasts. Once the bandages are removed, a specialized surgical bra will need to be worn for several weeks. Patients sometimes report minor pain associated with the surgery. This pain can be treated effectively with oral medication. While complications are rare, patients can minimize potential problems by carefully following the directions given by the physician after surgery.

I saw Dr. Dawes over 1 year ago for my breast augmentation, and I couldn’t be happier! Dr. Dawes had amazing bedside manor and is a very soft spoken friendly man. His staff was always very helpful and extremely friendly! Everyone has heard horror stories about breast augmentation, from talking to other people who have had the same surgery my surgery was 100 time better, professional doctor, nurses, office staff and relatively low pain after. I recommend everyone to Dr.Dawes
