Breast Augmentation is one of Dr. McLean’s most common procedures – he perfoms over 100 breast enhancement surgeries on an annual basis. The aim of this procedure is to enlarge breasts for those who feel they are too small or to fill out empty breasts (such as after weight loss). Sometimes the procedure may also help to even asymmetrical breasts.

Dr. McLean favors form stable anatomic implants from the Natrelle series for the majority of augmentations. However, round silicone implants and saline implants are also used. The choice depends largely on patient preferences and aims. Throughout an extensive consultation, Dr. McLean listens to patients carefully in helping them determine implant type and size, incision location, and whether the implant should be placed under the breast or under the muscle beneath it
All procedures are done at the accredited clinic, eliminating the need for a hospital stay. Through various innovations, Dr. McLean has improved procedures to reduce recovery time, and improve patient comfort.
