Will 220 CCs in the Fifth Generation Cohesive Implants Being Tested Produce an Adequate Result in an AA? (photo)

I'm currently scheduled to participate in the Allergan 410 clinical trial, receiving 5th generation Cohesive Gel implants next month. I'm 25, a 5'4.5, 110 pound, slender woman with little breast tissue to start, a 34AA. Because of my breast diameter, I'm limited to a 220gms/FF implant. I'm concerned this will only bring me to a small or mod. B cup. I'd like to be closer to a small C. The first two photos are of me, the second two of what I'd like to be. How far off am I? Thanks for responses!

A: Breast Implant Sizing

Hello Kells9,

I think you have done very well for yourself finding a doctor that participates in the 410 study and is also recommending the most appropriated sized and profiled implant for you. Contrary to most women and many surgeons, breast augmentation is not about getting whatever the woman desires in cup size. That thinking has led to the current abysmal statistics regarding national complication and reoperation rates: 25% of the 300,000 woman having breast augmentations performed every year will have a second, unplanned reoperation within 3 years.

BTW, the photo of the woman labeled 'ideal 1' has at least one complication that is apparent: She has asymmetry due to unilateral malpostition of one of her implants, specifically drop out. This is most likely due to the unpredictable tissue stretch that occured with these oversized (for her anatomy) implants. I don't mean to sound paternizing, but this is not what you want. I bet she notices and has complained to her surgeon.

Heed your doctors advice! No, you will not be a C cup, but you will have a nice enhancement with little risk of either early or late term complications.

Best of luck!

Is 18 Too Young for a Breast Augmentation Consultation?

I have wanted implants ever since my breasts stopped growing in my early teens. I have looked at many before and after photos and I believe I may have hypomastia. I have recently turned 18 and believe I am ready for this surgery. My parent is supportive of whatever decision I make but as I will be the one paying for this surgery it is ultimately my choice. I have the money and ability to do this now. My question is are doctors hesitant to discuss/perform breast augmentation on someone my age?

A: 18 yo is fine.

I would have hesitation if younger and would discuss at length with the family to understand the reasons, ect. A 18 year old in today's society is able to make her own choices and consent for herself. The FDA allows only saline breast implants for women under 22 yo. I do encourage that you involve your parents as much as possible and you will be responsible for your decisions.

Is the Method of Fixation Different for a Facelift?

where the SMAS is elevated by plication (folding) rather than imbrication (trimming)? I the tissue fixed onto itself or into the bone? There seems to be a difference of opinion regarding technique ad longevity; and, this is very important to a patient! I know everyone's skin differs, but photos are not reliable since every doctor takes them at a different phase of recovery.

A: SMAS- Plications

This a very good question. The smas is usually sewn to itself. This is a very strong deep structure that maintains strength over time. Plastic surgeons may use permanent or temporary sutures to accomplish this task.
