Dr. Raj Ambay has built a reputation for delivering consistently beautiful, natural-looking results and is committed to his patients’ safety and satisfaction. He developed advanced surgical techniques that produce longer-lasting, natural-looking results with less bruising and a faster recovery time. He spends a lot of time with each patient during the initial consultation to make sure he tailors the procedure to their specific needs and expectations.
Dr. Ambay’s breast augmentation, which is sometimes called a “boob job” or breast implant surgery, is designed to increase size, improve shape, or enhance breast symmetry. His technique includes placing breast implants (saline or silicone gel) either behind the breast tissue or beneath the chest muscle. The result is a fuller, more proportionate silhouette customized to each patient’s goals and anatomy.
Different types of breast implants can be used to create your desired look, including saline or silicone gel implants. Dr. Ambay is credentialed and trained to use any of these medical devices during surgery. Breast augmentation in Tampa, FL takes about 2 hours and can be combined with a breast lift.
Silicone implants are filled with a cohesive silicone gel that closely mimics the feel of natural breast tissue. They are popularly chosen by patients because of their natural look and soft feel.
Saline implants are filled with sterile salt water after placement and offer certain advantages in terms of adjustability and safety.
For patients seeking a more subtle enhancement, fat transfer breast augmentation in Tampa may also be discussed during consultation. This approach uses the patient’s own fat to achieve modest volume enhancement with natural-looking contours.

Breast Augmentation at Ambay Plastic Surgery takes about 2 hours and can be combined with a breast lift. We administer general anesthesia to keep you comfortable and safe during surgery. Dr. Ambay places incisions in one of the following areas:
There are various options for incision placement depending on the implant type, size, and patient anatomy: the breast crease (inframammary fold), periareolar (around the nipple, areola), and transaxillary (under the armpit). Dr. Ambay tends to favor the breast crease for incision, with implants placed either on top of the pectoral chest muscles (subglandular) or underneath it (submuscular).
The incision is closed up once he is happy with the implant placement results. Incision lines eventually fade as time goes by, making them barely noticeable. Dr. Ambay will discuss placement options with you during your consultation and recommend the best approach for your body.
If you have experienced volume loss combined with breast sagging or drooping (ptosis), often following pregnancy, breastfeeding, or significant weight loss, Dr. Ambay may recommend combining breast augmentation with a breast lift. This combination restores both fullness and a more youthful position on the chest wall.
You may be an ideal candidate for breast augmentation surgery with Dr. Ambay in Tampa if:
A personalized consultation with Dr. Ambay is the best way to determine whether breast augmentation is right for you. He will review your medical history, discuss your goals, and create a surgical plan customized to your needs.
Following surgery, your breasts will be wrapped in supportive bindings or a surgical bra to minimize swelling and support healing. Results are visible almost immediately, although final results will only become more prominent and noticeable over the course of several weeks.
You should expect some swelling and soreness for a few weeks during your breast augmentation recovery. We will prescribe pain medication and, in some cases, antibiotics to help prevent infection. Prepare to rest for a week after surgery. During week 2, most patients can return to light desk work. You should also avoid any heavy lifting, strenuous activity, and overhead movement for the first month post-surgery. During months 1-3, implants settle, and scars begin to fade. And from months 6-12, the final results are fully visible, and breast augmentation scars continue to fade and improve.
If you have gel-filled silicone implants, regular MRI scans and breast exams are necessary after the 3-year mark. You should contact Dr. Ambay if you have any concerns during your recovery period.

Breast implants aren’t considered lifetime devices. Many patients keep them for 10–20 years without issue, but at some point, they may need to be replaced or removed. Dr. Ambay will talk through longevity expectations and what signs to monitor during your consultation.
A common concern among younger patients is: Does breast augmentation affect breastfeeding? In many cases, women can still successfully breastfeed after surgery, particularly when implants are placed through inframammary incisions that avoid disruption to milk ducts and nerves.
Yes. During your consultation, Dr. Ambay walks you through a range of sizes, shapes, and profiles, and uses sizers to help you visualise outcomes. He’ll also share his professional recommendation based on your chest width, tissue characteristics, and goals, so it’s a collaborative decision, not a guessing game.
Scarring is an unavoidable part of any surgery. Dr. Ambay places incisions in well-hidden locations, most commonly the breast crease, and with proper aftercare, most scars fade significantly within 12-18 months and are barely noticeable.
You’ll be under general anesthesia during surgery, so you won’t feel anything. Post-operatively, most patients describe the discomfort as soreness or tightness rather than sharp pain. Prescribed medication manages this effectively during the first week or two.
Cost varies depending on implant type, surgical complexity, anesthesia, and facility fees. A personalised estimate will be provided at your consultation. The team can also discuss financing options if needed.
Yes. Breast augmentation is commonly paired with a breast lift for patients dealing with both volume loss and sagging. It can also be combined with body contouring procedures, like a tummy tuck, as part of a mommy makeover.
In most cases, patients should avoid side sleeping for at least several weeks to prevent pressure on healing tissues and implants.
Many patients ask, how long should I take off work after breast augmentation? Most women return to desk work within 5-7 days, although physically demanding jobs may require additional downtime.
In most cases, cosmetic breast augmentation is not covered by insurance because it is considered an elective procedure. However, reconstructive breast surgery following mastectomy or trauma may qualify for insurance coverage.
Choosing the right surgeon is the most important decision in your breast augmentation journey. Dr. Raj Ambay has built a reputation for delivering consistently beautiful, natural-looking results and is committed to his patients’ safety and satisfaction.
You can trust Dr. Raj Ambay to approach you with care and honesty, skill, and a genuine commitment to achieving the best possible outcome for you.
