Question 1

I do not live in Dubai. How is the process organised?

Accepted Answer

Most of our patients travel from other countries. The pathway is designed with this in mind: online consultation → visit to Dubai for in-person assessment and surgery → return home → online follow-up → scheduled visits for review. The AECLINIC personal coordinator assists with accommodation, logistics, and documentation.

Question 2

How many days do I need to be in Dubai?

Accepted Answer

A minimum of 7-10 days. This includes 1-2 days for consultations and investigations, the day of surgery, 1-2 days as an inpatient, and 5-7 days for initial recovery. The exact duration is confirmed at consultation.

Question 3

Do I need a visa?

Accepted Answer

Citizens of Russia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Ukraine, and most CIS countries can obtain a UAE visa on arrival at the airport for 30 days. If a longer stay is required, a medical letter can be prepared through the hospital or treating physician to support a tourist medical visa application.

Question 4

Where should I stay during recovery?

Accepted Answer

The AECLINIC team has a list of recommended hotels within 5-10 minutes of Dubai Healthcare City. The coordinator suggests options to suit your budget and preferences - from serviced apartments to Bulgari Resort. The choice is yours.

Question 5

How is payment arranged?

Accepted Answer

The cost is confirmed after consultation and selection of a personal plan. Payment is accepted in cash, by bank transfer, or by card according to the agreed package.

Question 6

Can I receive a written report from the surgeon?

Accepted Answer

Yes. After an in-person consultation, you receive a medical report describing the assessment, recommended approach, and clinical rationale. The document is issued in English; a Russian translation can be provided if required.

Question 7

Can you achieve a beautiful, full shape without silicone at all?

Accepted Answer

Yes, through a lift using your own tissue or lipofilling - transferring your own fat.

Question 8

Is it true that you cannot breastfeed after implants?

Accepted Answer

No, if the access is under the muscle through the inframammary fold. With caution, if the incision went directly through the areolar tissue.

Question 9

Do implants have to be replaced every 10 years?

Accepted Answer

No, if there are no complaints and the ultrasound is perfect. Yes, if you want a different size or your tissues changed after childbirth.

Question 10

Will a man immediately feel that the breasts are augmented?

Accepted Answer

No, if there is enough natural tissue. Yes, if a very firm, large implant is placed directly under the skin on a slender woman.

Question 11

Can scars really be hidden so no one finds them?

Accepted Answer

Yes, with transaxillary access. Almost invisible - along the areola edge or in the fold under the breast.

Question 12

What happens to the breasts if you suddenly lose 10 kg?

Accepted Answer

Nothing critical, if you have firm skin. Slight laxity may appear if the natural fat layer above the implant is lost.

Question 13

Would you refuse a petite woman a size 4?

Accepted Answer

Definitely yes, if the chest is narrow. I would offer a compromise - maximum size 2.5-3, so the result stays aesthetic.

Question 14

Will nipples lose sensitivity after surgery?

Accepted Answer

Sensitivity temporarily decreases in the first couple of months for almost everyone. It returns fully once innervation recovers.

Question 15

Round or anatomical implants: which look more natural?

Accepted Answer

Anatomical - if there is little natural tissue. Round - if you want a full upper pole and a beautiful neckline.

Question 16

What is the main trend now - natural look or full volume?

Accepted Answer

In Moscow - the natural «ballerina» trend, anatomical subtlety. In Dubai - a bold accent, striking neckline and volume.

Question 17

What do women most often say right after surgery?

Accepted Answer

The first half: «Why didn't I do this earlier?» The second: «Doctor, could it have been half a size bigger?»

Question 18

Can breasts be made exactly like in a favourite blogger's photo?

Accepted Answer

In real life - no, everyone has their own anatomy and chest width. In a photo with the right lighting - yes, but we operate for life.

Question 19

What is the main difference in requests between Moscow and Dubai?

Accepted Answer

In Moscow, micro-scars and discretion are critical. In Dubai, patients are more demanding about shape and push-up effect, but more relaxed about access.

Question 20

If a patient asks for a size that does not suit her, what do you do?

Accepted Answer

Either I decline with clear reasoning if it is dangerous for the tissues, or I find a compromise volume that enhances the silhouette.

Question 21

How many women come for revision after other surgeons?

Accepted Answer

Roughly one in three. Some correct technical errors and asymmetry, others have simply matured to change volume or shape.

Question 22

Are implants placed once and for life?

Accepted Answer

Technically, an implant is lifelong. But your body changes: after childbirth, weight fluctuations, or after 15 years the procedure is often updated.

Question 23

Who would you immediately refuse surgery to?

Accepted Answer

Those with unstable weight or acne in the décolletage area. And those who are categorically afraid of the possibility of future correction.

Question 24

How do you distinguish a real professional from a pretty picture on social media?

Accepted Answer

An Instagram surgeon promises eternal results with zero risk. An experienced doctor will show work in motion and honestly name all limitations.

Question 25

Can you become addicted to plastic surgery, like a dopamine hit?

Accepted Answer

Yes, if the body is used to cover psychological trauma. No, if the surgery was a conscious step toward self-confidence.

Question 26

What secret complexes do women most often come with at 25?

Accepted Answer

Some have feared undressing with the lights on for years. Others have hidden asymmetry under oversized clothing their whole life.

Question 27

How much time should pass from the first meeting to surgery?

Accepted Answer

From 2 weeks to a month. That is enough to filter out a spur-of-the-moment impulse and calmly approve the shape.

Question 28

Why is it sometimes helpful to see a psychologist before surgery?

Accepted Answer

If the goal is to love yourself, surgery will work. If the goal is to keep a man or please social media, plastic surgery will only deepen the crisis.

Question 29

How do men actually react to augmented breasts?

Accepted Answer

In 95% of cases - with full enthusiasm, if the size is proportional. Negatively - only if the implant looks like an unnatural ball.

Question 30

Why is cheap breast augmentation a trap?

Accepted Answer

When you economise, you pay for cheap anaesthesia and a conveyor-belt approach. In the premium segment you buy safety, certified implants and meticulous stitching.
