Breast augmentation in Mumbai has evolved beyond being a cosmetic enhancement—it’s now viewed as a form of self-expression, empowerment, and body confidence. In a society increasingly open to aesthetic procedures, women are seeking treatments that balance natural appearance with safety and precision. To explore this transformation and understand the science behind modern breast surgeries, I met Dr. Siddharth Prakash, one of Mumbai’s most respected Cosmetic Plastic Surgeons, renowned for his expertise in breast augmentation and reconstructive aesthetics.
Dr. Siddharth Prakash is a board-certified Plastic, Reconstructive, and Cosmetic Surgeon with years of experience in aesthetic medicine and surgical artistry. He completed his M.Ch. in Plastic Surgery from one of India’s leading medical institutes and has undergone advanced international training in aesthetic breast and body contouring surgery.
At his clinic, Ambrosia Aesthetics, located in South Mumbai, Dr. Prakash and his team focus on individualized care. The facility reflects a blend of professionalism and warmth—equipped with state-of-the-art operation theatres, 3D imaging for pre-surgical planning, and private consultation suites designed to ensure patient comfort and confidentiality.
“Every woman’s body is different,” he shared during our interview. “The goal of breast augmentation isn’t about size alone—it’s about harmony, proportion, and confidence. We aim for enhancement that feels as natural as it looks.”
Breast augmentation, commonly known as augmentation mammoplasty, involves the surgical placement of implants or fat transfer to enhance breast size, shape, or symmetry. According to Dr. Prakash, the motivations for this procedure vary—from restoring volume lost after pregnancy or weight loss to achieving a more balanced body contour.
The procedure typically uses silicone or saline implants, though autologous fat grafting (using the patient’s own fat) is gaining popularity for those seeking subtle enhancement. “It’s not just cosmetic,” he added, “it’s emotional reconstruction—helping women feel whole and confident.”
In India, other notable surgeons such as Dr. Debraj Shome and Dr. Rajat Gupta have advanced the field of aesthetic breast surgery through their specialized techniques and focus on natural results. Internationally, names like Dr. Garth Fisher and Dr. Sherrell Aston has been instrumental in refining breast augmentation standards worldwide.
These doctors share a unified approach: using customized surgical planning, 3D simulation, and advanced implant materials to deliver aesthetic outcomes while maintaining the highest safety standards.
Like any medical procedure, breast augmentation comes with its share of benefits and considerations.
