FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
How is the right implant size determined?
Implant type and size, where relevant, are discussed individually during consultation, based on your anatomy, goals, and body frame — not a fixed or generic recommendation.
Will the result look natural?
Planning favors proportion and balance with your existing frame rather than an exaggerated appearance. This is discussed in detail during consultation.
How long does recovery take?
Initial swelling and bruising are most noticeable in the first days and typically ease over the following weeks, with results continuing to settle over a longer period. Individual healing times vary.
What is capsular contracture?
Capsular contracture is a possible implant-related risk in which scar tissue around the implant tightens. It is one of several risks discussed during your consultation.
Is a revision procedure ever needed?
Occasionally, a secondary procedure may be considered, whether for implant-related reasons or personal preference. This possibility is discussed during your consultation.
How do I know if I'm a good candidate?
Candidacy depends on your anatomy, goals, and medical history, all reviewed during an individual consultation with Dr. Hedayat.
