Does Doctor Really Know Best? when Suggesting What Size Implants I Should Get or Should It Be my Decision?

Does Doctor Really Know Best? when Suggesting What Size Implants I Should Get or Should It Be my Decision?

A: Implant size should be patient decision with surgeon recommendation

Hello,

Since it is your body you should always be the final decision maker.  Your plastic surgeon can help narrow down the range of implants that would give you the result that you are looking for.  You can and probably always should try on the implants in the office to make sure that the decision you both have made together was the right one.

All the best,

How Long Does It Take for Muscles to Heal After Implants?

i have submusculer implant 6weaks but i still have pain,contractions,i still feel abnormal?

A: It depends on how much of the muscle was cut and your implant size

Hello,

The amount of muscle contraction that you may feel after a breast augmentation depends on how much of the muscle was cut and the size of your implants.  Its usually in the several month range for most.  Sometimes stretching, massage, and arm movement can help expedite the process even though it hurts while doing it.

I Had Implants 18 Months Ago, I Now Have Pain in Shoulders , Could this be Related?

I'm just experiencing pain in shoulders and upper arms....can this be related to the implants

A: Its possible, but back, neck, shoulder pain can occur for different reasons

Hello,

Its always difficult to know since most breast augmentation women do not have complaints of pain in their shoulders or back even with large implants.  Similarly, even the smallest breast reduction results in reports from the patient that their back, neck , and shoulder pain are gone.  I would evaluate other factors such as posture, your bra, your activity level all before you focus on the implants on the source.

All the best,
