Can I Achieve These Breasts from What My Surgeon Has Suggested? (photo)

My surgeon in Thailand has suggested: polyurethane, round shaped, high profile, 325 and 350 cc implants to be placed subfascial using the breast fold incision. NB: I requested the polyurethane cover implants. I have added a photo of my breasts and a photo of the breasts I VERY much desire. I am in love with them! (image found on the internet-public domain) Thank you :)

A: Travel to Third World for Plasic Surgery May Be Risky

I agree with Dr. Aldea that traveling to foreign countries  for  plastic surgery may be a choice that you will come to regret.  There is no way to validate credentials of the surgeon ,safety of surgical facility or the quality of the  products used during the procedure. Costs are likely to be cheaper because their standards are lower. If you have a complication after leaving Thailand, you will not have access to your doctor to take care of you. I also agree with Dr. Rand  that you are setting yourself up for disappointment if you have your heart set on looking like  some one else's photo.

How Do I Know Which CC's Will Look Ok On My Body? (photo)

I am 5'7 1/2 and weigh 180 pounds. I currently wear a 36B and recently went to a consultation. I tried on 375cc's and thought it may be too big. My doctor said no, and encouraged me to go bigger. I'm unsure what will look good? I ultimately want to be a D but I don't want it to look too extreme. But I also don't want to go through with getting 375 or 400cc's and it turn out to be too small. What do you recommend? Help! I have attached my pic along with two pictures I would like to look like.

A: How Do I Know Which CC's Will Look Ok On My Body?

I do have my patients try silicone gel sizers on in a stretch cup bra. Although not a perfect method, I think it gives us some idea of how much volume a patient wants to add to her own breast volume in order to obtain the desired breast mound size.  I also think that bringing in photos can help communicate to a surgeon what size and shape (eg: how much upper pole fullness) a patient is hoping for.  The first set of photos you show are very full breasts, with a pretty significant of upper pole fullness...an "implanted" rather than a natural look, but a nice "implanted" look.  Although it is difficult to tell without examining you, I would guess that you would need at least 400cc to obtain this look, and maybe closer to 450-475cc or so.

I Had Implants Done 27 Years Ago, Not Sure if They Are Saline or Silicone. How Can I Tell?

Is there any way to tell if I have silicone or saline implants?

A: Get your records to be sure

There only two ways to know what you have had done in the past:  Obtain your records from the surgeon's office where you had them put in.  The type of implant will be listed in your file.  Short of being able to do that the only other way is to have a plastic surgeon remove them.  When the surgery is over he or she can tell you what they found.  

Twenty seven years ago the implants weren't made like they are today.  Very few people drive twenty seven year old cars.  I highly recommend getting these exchanged for newer implants soon.
