How Dr. Tehrani Has Helped Thousands of Women Choose the Perfect Breast Implant for Their Body Type

In 2025, breast augmentation has evolved far beyond a single idea of beauty. Women today want enhancements that look natural, feel authentic, and move comfortably with their lifestyle. They’re not chasing a size—they’re seeking proportion, posture, and confidence. Dr. Kevin Tehrani, double board-certified plastic surgeon and founder of Aristocrat Plastic Surgery & MedAesthetics, has spent decades refining the science and art behind this transformation. His patients don’t just walk out with new curves—they walk out with renewed balance and self-assurance.

Across thousands of cases, Dr. Tehrani has developed a deeply personalized approach to breast implant selection. He uses advanced 3D imaging, precise sizing systems, and an understanding of body mechanics to design results that age gracefully and fit seamlessly into each woman’s life. Below, we outline the steps of his proven process—how he helps women choose the perfect implant for their body type, their confidence, and their future.

Foundation & Form: Understanding Your Natural Frame

Every beautiful result begins with understanding what’s already there. Before discussing size or shape, Dr. Tehrani studies your physical foundation—the ribcage width, chest wall curvature, muscle coverage, posture, and shoulder-to-hip ratio. These factors dictate what will look natural and how an implant will settle over time. He’s known for using these structural cues to sculpt proportionate, realistic contours that enhance, not overpower, your figure.

During consultation, Dr. Tehrani uses physical mapping and 3D imaging to help you visualize your baseline and what’s possible. You’ll see how modest adjustments in projection or width can completely change how clothing fits and how your body carries itself. By starting with form and structure, Dr. Tehrani ensures every decision—material, size, placement—fits organically within your body’s language.

Silicone vs. Saline — Choosing the Material with Dr. Tehrani

Selecting your implant material sets the tone for the entire result. Dr. Tehrani believes in making this process tactile and transparent. You’ll see, hold, and feel both types while previewing how each one interacts with your natural tissue.

Silicone Implants

  • Smooth, cohesive gel that feels like natural breast tissue
  • Hold their shape even when compressed
  • Minimal rippling, ideal for thinner or athletic frames
  • Available in varying gel densities for a custom feel—from soft and fluid to form-stable
  • Wide selection of widths and profiles for individualized sculpting
  • Require routine imaging for long-term monitoring
  • Chosen by patients who want the most natural movement and texture

Saline Implants

  • Filled after placement, allowing Dr. Tehrani to fine-tune size and symmetry in real time
  • Smaller incision, often easier recovery
  • Immediate detection if rupture occurs—safe saline simply absorbs naturally
  • Slightly firmer texture, providing subtle lift and support
  • More affordable option for some patients
  • No long-term imaging required
  • Favored by those prioritizing adjustability and simplicity

With Dr. Tehrani, this isn’t a sales pitch—it’s a science-backed, lifestyle-aligned conversation. You leave knowing exactly why one material suits your body and your vision best.

Shape & Profile Planning with Dr. Tehrani

The next layer of design focuses on the shape and projection of your implant. Dr. Tehrani blends technical understanding with an artistic eye to match each profile to your body’s unique rhythm.

  • Round implants offer consistent fullness and are perfect for women seeking more upper-pole volume and a lifted appearance.
  • Anatomical (teardrop) implants mimic natural breast slopes, giving a subtle, graceful contour ideal for petite or athletic frames.

Projection—how far the implant extends from the chest wall—is equally important. Low-profile implants spread softly across wider chests, moderate profiles balance proportion, and high profiles create elegant projection without excess width. Using 3D visualization, Dr. Tehrani demonstrates how each variation affects balance, cleavage, and clothing fit, ensuring every patient understands her options clearly before surgery.

The Art of Sizing — Finding Your Sweet Spot

Sizing is where Dr. Tehrani’s artistry truly comes alive. Instead of focusing on numbers, he helps patients discover the volume that harmonizes with their shape and lifestyle. He studies the relationship between ribcage width, shoulder line, and waist curve to ensure your new proportions feel fluid and natural. This “sweet spot” sizing makes a difference you can sense instantly—it’s balanced, confident, and timeless.

During consultation, Dr. Tehrani uses in-office sizers and calibrated digital simulations to show how different volumes interact with your frame. Patients test movement, posture, and comfort while previewing realistic outcomes from multiple angles. This interactive process builds confidence and clarity, turning uncertainty into excitement. His focus is always on refinement, not exaggeration—the art of making you look like you, only better.

Implant Placement and Precision Pocketing

How an implant is placed defines how it behaves over time. Dr. Tehrani personalizes pocket design based on your muscle tone, tissue quality, and goals:

  • Dual-plane placement combines muscle coverage with natural breast tissue for a balanced lift.
  • Submuscular placement conceals edges and creates the softest upper slope, ideal for lean patients.
  • Subglandular placement sits above the muscle, perfect for those with ample natural tissue.

Through precise dissection and sculpting, Dr. Tehrani prevents complications like rotation, rippling, or bottoming out. His meticulous attention to depth, symmetry, and internal support gives his results their reputation for longevity and realism.

Internal Bra Support — Structure for Long-Term Lift

For women with thinner tissue or advanced reshaping goals, Dr. Tehrani often incorporates an internal bra using biologic mesh or modern scaffold materials. This discreet reinforcement acts like invisible architecture, supporting the implant from within and maintaining position over time.

In practice, Dr. Tehrani finds that the internal bra helps prevent downward drift, improves lower-pole definition, and keeps the chest looking youthful without added tension on the skin. The mesh blends seamlessly with your tissue, invisible to the eye but invaluable to the result. It’s structure meeting artistry—stability that feels natural, not rigid.

Fat Grafting Refinements with Dr. Tehrani

To refine the result, Dr. Tehrani frequently combines implants with gentle fat grafting. By transferring purified fat from areas like the flanks or thighs, he can soften edges, improve upper-pole fullness, and correct subtle asymmetries.

Because it uses your own tissue, this technique blends the implant seamlessly into your natural breast line. Dr. Tehrani’s meticulous layering process ensures long-term survival of the grafted fat, giving a supple, smooth transition that enhances realism from every angle.

Recovery That Protects Your Fit

Dr. Tehrani designs recovery as carefully as surgery. His post-operative plan supports comfort, alignment, and long-term results.

  • Long-acting anesthetics reduce pain in the first 48 hours
  • Gentle movement encouraged within one day to promote healing
  • Support garments shaped by Dr. Tehrani guide implant position
  • Follow-up visits scheduled at key milestones to monitor fit and progress

Most patients return to light routines in one to two weeks and resume full activity by four to six. Recovery isn’t rushed—it’s planned, paced, and personalized to preserve the integrity of your result.

3D Imaging and Virtual Consults with Dr. Tehrani

Technology makes planning visual. Using Vectra 3D imaging, Dr. Tehrani allows patients to virtually “try on” different implant sizes, shapes, and profiles on their own body. You’ll see how your figure looks from every angle—even in clothing simulations—before committing to surgery.

This digital approach aligns expectations with reality, giving both surgeon and patient a clear roadmap. Many women describe this preview as the turning point—when everything clicks, and they finally see their future shape taking form.

Modern Maintenance & Ongoing Care with Dr. Tehrani

Rather than focusing on “how long implants last,” Dr. Tehrani teaches patients how to maintain results that evolve gracefully over time. He recommends posture awareness, supportive garments for exercise, and periodic professional check-ins to ensure everything remains aligned and stable.

When lifestyle or body changes occur—such as pregnancy, weight fluctuation, or aging—Dr. Tehrani tailors subtle enhancements like fat touch-ups or internal mesh reinforcement instead of drastic revision. His maintenance philosophy is proactive, not reactive: protect what you love, refine when necessary, and let your results mature naturally.

Confidence That Feels Like You

True confidence doesn’t come from size—it comes from proportion. Dr. Tehrani’s patients often say their transformation feels “right,” as if their body finally matches how they’ve always pictured themselves. The difference shows not just in photos, but in posture, comfort, and quiet self-assurance.

Every curve he creates is guided by purpose and restraint. By designing implants that move and age gracefully, Dr. Tehrani helps women look effortlessly natural—not surgically changed, but authentically elevated. It’s beauty that endures, confidence that feels earned, and artistry that belongs entirely to you.
