FAQ

Breast Augmentation in Burnaby: common questions

How much does Breast Augmentation cost in Burnaby?

Breast Augmentation generally runs CAD$8,840–CAD$17,680 per procedure, and each Burnaby clinic sets its own price. The biggest variables are the provider's experience level and the specific device or product used. Newer technology and senior injectors price at the upper end. Pricing is quoted in Canadian dollars (CAD). Request a consultation from any of our listed Burnaby clinics for a personalized quote.

How often should I get Breast Augmentation?

Maintenance schedules vary. Most Burnaby providers recommend periodic refresh sessions every 6–12 months once optimal results are achieved.

How long do Breast Augmentation results last?

Results vary by patient, but most Burnaby providers report 6–18 months of sustained benefit from a full Breast Augmentation series.

How much do breast implants cost?

Nationally, breast augmentation typically runs $6,500 to $13,000 including surgeon fee, anesthesia, facility, and the implants themselves. Silicone implants generally add $1,000 to $1,500 over saline. Fat transfer augmentation, which uses liposuction from elsewhere on your body instead of implants, usually runs $8,000 to $15,000 because it is two procedures in one. Ask specifically whether the quote includes the surgical bra, follow-up visits, and what a revision would cost.

Are implants permanent?

No, and any surgeon who implies otherwise is not being straight with you. Implants are medical devices with a finite lifespan. Manufacturers generally expect 10 to 20 years, and many patients need or choose a second operation in that window for rupture, capsular contracture, or simply a change in preference. Budget for the possibility of future surgery when you decide whether this is affordable.

Silicone or saline?

Silicone implants feel more like natural breast tissue and are what most patients choose today. Saline implants cost less, use a smaller incision, and make rupture obvious immediately since the body absorbs the saline harmlessly. Silicone rupture can be silent, which is why the FDA recommends periodic MRI or ultrasound screening for silicone implants. Both are FDA approved and both are safe options. The decision is genuinely personal.

What are the real risks?

The most common is capsular contracture, where scar tissue tightens around the implant and firms or distorts the breast, which affects a meaningful minority of patients and may require revision surgery. Others include rupture, changes in nipple sensation that are sometimes permanent, rippling, and asymmetry. There is also a rare lymphoma called BIA-ALCL associated primarily with textured implants, which is why textured implants have largely left the US market. Discuss all of this at consultation, and ask the surgeon what their own revision rate is.

Will I be able to breastfeed afterward?

Most patients can, particularly when the incision is placed in the fold beneath the breast or the armpit rather than around the areola. Incisions around the areola carry somewhat higher risk of affecting milk ducts and nipple sensation. Tell your surgeon if future breastfeeding matters to you, because it should influence the incision choice.
