Breast Reshaping Toronto
Breast Reshaping is a surgical procedure that improves the overall shape, symmetry, and appearance of the breasts. It can effectively correct sagging (ptosis), asymmetry, tubular breast shapes, or loss of firmness — creating a more youthful, balanced, and aesthetically pleasing contour.
Performed by Dr. Ali Adibfar at Elements Toronto, Breast Reshaping Toronto is fully customized to the patient’s breast size, shape, skin quality, and personal goals. It may involve a Breast Lift, volume adjustment using implants or fat transfer, reduction of excess tissue, or a thoughtful combination of these techniques based on what is needed to achieve the best result.
The procedure can be performed at any stage of adulthood once breast development is complete. Dr. Adibfar will discuss incision patterns, the potential use of implants, and all available options during your consultation.
Recovery Timeline
Recovery varies from patient to patient, but the following timeline provides a general guideline:
- First 48–72 hours: Swelling and discomfort are expected. A supportive surgical bra is worn and rest is important during this initial phase.
- Week 1: Bruising and swelling begin to improve. Light activities can be resumed, though heavy lifting and strenuous exercise should be avoided.
- Weeks 1–2: Most patients return to work and non-strenuous daily activities. A supportive bra continues to be worn.
- Weeks 3–6: Swelling continues to resolve and the reshaped breast contour becomes more defined. Exercise may be gradually reintroduced once cleared by Dr. Ali Adibfar.
- 3–6 months: Final results of Breast Reshaping — including shape and symmetry — become fully apparent as all swelling resolves. Scars continue to fade progressively during this period.
Dr. Adibfar will provide detailed post-operative instructions and monitor your healing closely throughout your recovery at Elements Toronto to ensure the best possible outcome.
Frequently Asked Questions
How should I prepare for my consultation?
Come prepared with a list of your current medications, any underlying health conditions, relevant medical history, and your post-surgical history. For procedures involving the jaw, brow bone, or forehead, you may also send our office any X-rays, scans, or imaging you have available before your appointment.
Can I have a virtual consultation?
Yes. Virtual consultations are offered. The team will obtain consent forms and photographs beforehand. In-person is preferred when possible.
Is there a fee for the consultation?
Yes. The consultation fee is $200. This amount is deducted from the surgical cost if you proceed with surgery. This fee may change over time.
Is my consultation confidential?
Entirely. Your information is protected under Ontario privacy legislation. Photos are never used without separate written consent.
What can I expect from my initial consultation?
A private one-on-one consultation with Dr. Adibfar to discuss your goals, perform an assessment, review recommendations, set realistic expectations, and show curated before-and-after photos when appropriate.
Can I choose the type of anesthesia I receive?
Anesthesia is planned with the anesthesiologist. Depending on the procedure, this may involve local anesthesia, deep sedation, or general anesthesia.
Where is my surgery performed?
Surgery is performed at the Elements Surgery Centre, a CPSO-accredited out-of-hospital premises (OHP).
What should I expect when it comes to scarring?
Any incision leaves a scar. Incisions are placed in natural folds whenever possible. Final scar appearance depends on the type of surgery, your individual healing, genetics, post-operative care, and whether you smoke or use nicotine products.
Is cosmetic surgery covered by OHIP or private insurance?
No. Elements Toronto does not perform OHIP-covered procedures. Purely cosmetic procedures are not covered by OHIP or private insurance.
Do you offer financing?
Yes. Financing is available through Medicard and Beautifi.
How do I reserve my surgery date?
A 30% deposit is required to reserve your surgery date. The remaining balance is due at your pre-operative appointment, approximately 4 weeks before surgery. The written quote is valid for 6 months.
What is your policy on revision surgery?
If a revision is necessary after 12 months of healing, additional fees may apply based on Dr. Adibfar’s evaluation.
How many follow-up appointments will I have?
Standard follow-ups are typically scheduled at 1 week, 6 weeks, 3 months, 6 months, and 1 year, or according to your individual protocol. These are included in the surgical fees according to practice.
Who do I contact if something doesn’t feel right after surgery?
Contact the office at (416) 929-1288. Dr. Adibfar is available directly after hours for medical emergencies. For life-threatening emergencies, go to the nearest emergency department.
I live outside Toronto. How does that work?
Virtual consultations are available. After surgery, a stay in Toronto is required for initial post-operative monitoring. Depending on the procedure, this can range from a few days up to 3 weeks (and up to 2–4 weeks for more extensive facial procedures such as facial feminization surgery).
Do I need to stop smoking before surgery?
Yes. Smoking, vaping, and all nicotine products compromise healing and scar quality and must be stopped before surgery.
