How Top Detroit Breast Implant Surgeon Gets Natural Results

Women who are dissatisfied with their breast and opt for breast implants almost universally experience greater self-confidence while looking and feeling their best. But while all breast implant surgery alters the size and shape of a woman’s breasts – it is the skill of the plastic surgeon that results in the breasts looking and feeling natural.

Breast implant surgery continues to be on the rise, with studies showing that breast implant surgery has increased more than 30% since the year 2000.  However, some women still feel apprehensive about undergoing breast enhancement – most specifically wondering if their new breasts will look and feel natural.

Top Detroit plastic surgeon Dr. Ali has performed more than 3,000 breast implant surgeries at AMAE Plastic Surgery Center in the Detroit area. Many of his patients initially had these same concerns, which he was quickly able to dispel.

“Many of my patients come to me with an example of someone they know or maybe a celebrity where the breast implants obviously look fake,” says Dr. Ali. “But as I explain to them, many of these cases involve breast implants that are too large for the woman’s frame, among other factors.”

As a top board certified plastic surgeon, Doctor Ali has is an expert at creating realistic looking and feeling breast implants. What follows are the recommendations he gives to his patients who desire more natural-looking breast implants.

The Initial Breast Implant Consultation

Detroit area plastic surgeon Dr. Ali requires all of his patients to schedule a lengthy and thorough one-on-one consultation, where he will listen to their expectations and surgery goals.

The appointment also involves a thorough examination to assess the patient’s health, including looking at the skin condition and muscle tone. Together Dr. Ali and the patient will gauge the proper implant size, type, profile (height or silhouette) and method of implantation. According to Doctor Ali, all of these factors can affect the succerssful outcome of breast implant  surgery.

Breast Implant Size

Breast implants come in a variety of sizes, but the size of the implant can be misleading, says Dr. Ali. He adds that just because an implant looks small doesn’t mean that it will appear small once it’s implanted.

As he explains, “The breast implant will combine with the woman’s natural breast tissue to fill out the breast and make it larger, higher and/or better shaped.”

Additionally, the woman’s build must be taken into consideration. The same size implant may look huge on a woman with a petite bone structure, but may not look big enough on a taller woman with a broader chest area.

Dr. Ali advises patients to trust their doctor’s recommendations for the proper size, even if their first instinct is to ask for larger breast implants.

“Your doctor knows the size that’s appropriate for your shoulders, waist, and hips,” says Dr. Ali. “The size that’s most appropriate for a woman’s frame will provide the most realistic effects.”

Further, going too large with breast implants can not only look unnatural, but can increase the likelihood of complications, such as stretch marks, visible rippling and wrinkling, back problems and even a thinning of the natural breast tissue. In some cases, these complications can lead to a need for reoperation.

Method of Breast Implant Surgery

The way the breast implants are surgically implanted can also affect how natural and attractive that the new breasts look and feel, according to Detroit area plastic surgeon Dr. Ali.

For example, he typically suggests that going under the armpit and placing the implant under the muscle will give the most realistic appearance. However, the type of procedure he uses depends on the woman’s natural breast size and shape, as well as the amount of existing breast tissue.

The size of the implant also matters. For example, larger breast implants cannot be placed by way of the armpit; they must be inserted the through the fold of the breast or areola.

Breast Implant Type

Dr. Ali says that while silicone and saline are both FDA approved, silicone gel implants – sometimes called “gummy bear implants” – tend to feel more natural when compared to saline. Silicone gel tends to mimic the natural consistency of breast tissue.

Doctor Ali typically prefers Mentor MemoryShape® Breast Implants for their natural shape, feel, and excellent variety of sizes and silhouettes. These emulate the silhouette of a natural breast, with their teardrop shape. And they are filled with a cohesive gel uniquely formulated to retain this natural breast shape. This ensures that the breasts look, feel, and move like natural breast tissue.

Realistic Breast Implant Expectations

“During a consultation, I will ask the patient what she expects from breast implants,” says Dr. Ali. “Does she want larger breasts, or to fill them out following childbirth? How pert does she want them to be, and what does she want her cleavage to look like?”

Detroit area plastic surgeon Dr. Ali advises all patients considering breast implants to keep their expectations realistic if they want more natural looking breas implants.

To help with expectations, Dr. Ali recommends that patients bring to their consultation a series of photographs that depict the outcome they expect. Dr. Ali also offers his patients several before and after images that can help his patients visualize what the after effects will look like.

He warns that every woman’s body is different and that a certain size and type of implant may look different on one woman when compared to another. That’s where the doctor’s experience and expertise come into play.

A top plastic surgeon can recommend the best breast implants type, size and method to ensure the patient’s satisfaction. Choosing a highly experienced and qualified board certified surgeon like Doctor Ali is the best way to ensure natural looking and feeling breast implants.

Vectra 3D Imaging for Natural Breast Implant Results

Advanced Vectra 3D imaging technology at AMAE Plastic Surgery provides unprecedented visualization of potential breast augmentation results. Clinical studies show that patients utilizing 3D imaging during consultation report 45% higher satisfaction with final results due to more accurate expectation setting.

The system captures high-resolution images from multiple angles simultaneously, creating precise three-dimensional models of the patient’s anatomy. This technology allows Dr. Ali to demonstrate exactly how different implant sizes and shapes will look on the patient’s unique body frame, with studies showing 90% accuracy in predicting final results.

Advanced software analyzes the captured images to provide exact measurements of breast width, volume, and projection. Research indicates that these precise measurements lead to 35% better outcomes in achieving natural-looking results. The technology’s ability to simulate post-surgical results with different implant options helps patients make confident, informed decisions about their desired outcome.

Natural Fat Transfer Alternative to Breast Implants

Fat transfer breast augmentation offers a natural alternative for patients seeking subtle enhancement without implants. At AMAE Plastic Surgery in the Detroit area, Dr. Ali utilizes advanced autologous fat transfer to enhance breasts without implants.

The procedure begins with gentle laser-assisted liposuction from donor areas such as abdomen, flanks, or thighs. The harvested fat undergoes specialized processing to isolate the healthiest cells for transfer.

Results typically provide a one-half to one cup size increase while improving breast shape and symmetry. Research indicates that transferred fat cells that survive the initial three-month period become permanently integrated into existing breast tissue. Studies demonstrate that 85% of patients report natural-looking and feeling results, with the added benefit of body contouring through strategic fat removal from donor sites.

Patient satisfaction surveys show that women choosing fat transfer particularly appreciate the dual benefit of reducing unwanted fat while enhancing breast volume.
