Breast Surgeon in Abu Dhabi

Dr. Paulo Michels is a Brazilian board-certified plastic surgeon (SBCP) with over 18 years of experience, and breast surgery is one of the core areas of his practice in Abu Dhabi: breast augmentation, breast lift (mastopexy) with or without implants, breast reduction, the Internal Bra technique, implant revision, breast implant removal (explant) and male breast reduction (gynaecomastia). He consults and operates at Elyzee Hospital in Abu Dhabi.

No. Dr. Michels is a plastic surgeon focused on cosmetic and revision breast surgery. The diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer — including any new lump, skin change or nipple discharge — belongs to a breast oncology team, and any suspicious finding at a consultation is referred for proper investigation before cosmetic surgery is considered.

Breast augmentation with cohesive silicone implants (Motiva, Mentor, Polytech) in Dual Plane placement; hybrid augmentation with fat transfer; breast lift with the autologous Internal Bra; mastopexy with implants; breast reduction; implant revision for capsular contracture, bottoming out, symmastia, rippling or size change; breast implant removal with total or en bloc capsulectomy; and gynaecomastia surgery.

Crisalix 3D simulation at the consultation lets you preview how different implant sizes and profiles may look on your own body — a planning aid, not a guarantee. In the operating theatre, implants are placed with the Keller Funnel, a no-touch insertion technique that limits contact between the implant and the skin and allows a shorter incision.

Start from the problem rather than the operation name. Small or deflated breasts usually point to augmentation; a low nipple and stretched skin to a lift; heavy breasts to a reduction; a hard, displaced or rippling implant to revision. Many women need a combination. The condition guides on this page explain each problem, and the examination at the consultation confirms the plan.

Yes. Revision is a substantial part of breast practice — capsular contracture, bottomed-out or displaced implants, symmastia, rippling, rupture and implants that feel too big or too small. Bring your implant card or operative notes if you have them; if not, ultrasound or MRI identifies the implant and the state of the capsule before the revision is planned.

All consultations and surgery take place at Elyzee Hospital in Abu Dhabi, a fully licensed private hospital, under general anaesthesia with board-certified anaesthesiologists and ultrasound-guided nerve blocks for comfort after surgery.

Yes. Many patients travel from Dubai and across the UAE. The consultation, 3D simulation, pre-operative tests and surgical date are grouped to keep journeys to a minimum, and the first days after surgery are spent in Abu Dhabi under clinical monitoring.

The cost depends on the operation, the implant chosen, whether procedures are combined and the length of the hospital stay. Every plan is individual, so a written quote is given after the consultation once the technique is defined; no fixed price list is published.
