Breast Augmentation with Silicone Implants in Dr. Paul Aguirre (Paul Aguirre MD)
About the clinic
Breast augmentation with silicone implants is offered by Dr. Paul Aguirre’s plastic surgery practice in Bogotá, Colombia. Plastic surgeon Dr. Paul Aguirre trained at the Ivo Pitanguy Institute and belongs to the Colombian Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery (SCCP).
Implant and placement options
Patients can choose from round, teardrop-shaped, and ergonomic implants. Brands include Polytech Microthane, Silimed, B-Lite, Motiva, and Mentor. The listed implants have FDA, CE, and INVIMA approval.
Polyurethane foam-covered implants, including Polytech Microthane and Silimed, integrate with surrounding tissue. B-Lite implants are up to 30% lighter than traditional implants of the same volume. Motiva ergonomic implants adapt to body position. Round implants can create a fuller upper breast, while teardrop shapes follow a natural breast slope.
Implants can sit above the chest muscle, beneath its fascia, or partly beneath the muscle. The choice depends on tissue thickness and the desired implant coverage. Incisions may be placed under the breast, along the lower edge of the areola, or in the armpit. The under-breast incision is usually 3–4 cm and lies within the breast fold.
For selected patients, the surgeon can combine an implant with the patient’s own fat. This may soften implant edges and refine the cleavage. Fat transfer alone may suit some patients seeking moderate enlargement without implants.
Surgery and recovery
The operation takes 1–2 hours under general anesthesia. Before surgery, patients have breast and chest measurements, tissue and skin checks, pre-surgical tests, and an anesthesiology review. Surgery is planned for patients in suitable health.
Patients stay overnight for monitoring at a high-complexity clinic with an intensive care unit available. Recovery includes 24-hour remote vital-sign monitoring, with alerts sent to trained staff. Follow-up visits are scheduled with Dr. Aguirre and his team.
Pressure or tightness during the first three days is managed with pain medicine. Light activities and office work may resume around days 4–7. Social activities often return during weeks 2–3, while exercise resumes gradually over weeks 4–6. The final result may be visible after 2–3 months. A postoperative bra is worn for about one month, and visitors are advised to plan 7–10 days in Bogotá.
Clinic credentials and considerations
The practice reports certification by Colombia’s Ministry of National Education and the Colegio Médico Colombiano. Its surgeons belong to the SCCP. Possible risks include bleeding, infection, temporary changes in sensation, capsular contracture, implant rotation, or rupture.

Facial and Body Plastic Surgery
The clinic performs facial rejuvenation using the Deep Plane Facelift technique. This method adjusts deeper tissue layers, so results last 10 to 15 years. Endoscopic facelifts and deep neck cervicoplasty are also available.
Body contouring services include surgical and non-surgical options:
- Abdominoplasty and reverse tummy tuck

- Hybrid breast augmentation combining implants with fat transfer
- Breast lift using lightweight B-Lite or Motiva ergonomic implants
- Non-surgical slimming programs and botulinum toxin injections
Specialists use purified fat for lipofilling to create natural-looking volume. This approach allows breast augmentation without prostheses in selected cases.
Surgical Safety and Recovery Protocols
Procedures take place in high-complexity clinical settings. An intensive care unit (ICU) is available if specialized inpatient care is needed.
A remote patient monitoring system supports recovery after surgery. This platform uses AI-assisted sensors to track vital signs around the clock. If any changes occur, the system sends real-time alerts to trained staff.
This monitoring service works regardless of the patient's location. It connects the surgical facility with the patient's home or hotel.
Services for International Patients
The clinic offers dedicated support for patients traveling to Bogotá. Staff coordinate postoperative care and maintain direct communication throughout the stay.
International services include:
- Coordinated postoperative assistance during the stay in Bogotá
