Answer: Saline refill Yes, saline implants can be refilled or even overfilled by the plastic surgeons. We do this when patients lose weight and have rippling issues.

CONTACT NOW Answer: Can I Refill my Saline Breast Implants? Hello, It is possible, but usually not recommended. Even if your surgeon were to add a bit more saline, it wouldn't be enough for you to see much a change in size. To be noticeable, like going up a cup size, you really need to add at least 100 cc's more. What you may be experiencing is simply the swelling decreasing and the muscle relaxing over the first few months and the implants changing position.The implant volume has not changed. If you are unhappy with the volume, you may just require a revision to exchange your implants for a larger size. But it's a good idea to see your surgeon regardless, there may be something more going on beyond normal "drop and fluff". Speak to your doc!

Answer: Refill Saline Implants Thank you for your question. You can technically add saline to a saline breast implant, however, this will not only void the implant warranty and you need to keep in mind that every time you go back in for surgery, you open yourself up to complications like capsular contracture especially when you are using the implant.I prefer to place new, sterile implants in to get the size you desire now.I hope this helps

Answer: Removal & Replacement of Breast Implants The decrease in your breast size is probably not related to your breast implants, but instead to loss of actual breast tissue. It’s unusual for leaking breast implants to occur bilaterally and they typically don’t deflate slowly. The solution to this problem is most likely removal of your current implants and replacement with larger implants. In most cases, adding volume to an existing implant is not considered a good idea for a variety of reasons. These implants have fill ranges and the amount added would probably not impact breast size enough to make a difference. It’s important to discuss your concerns with your plastic surgeon. Your surgeon will be able to help formulate a plan that will be appropriate for your problem.

Answer: Refilling saline breast implants to increase size.
Usually both implants don't deflate slowly. If you have a true chronic deflation, the fix for this is removal and replacement. Your loss of volume may be due more to your breast tissue thinning out and the implants settling. Refilling of implants is usually not done as most implants are filled to their capacity. Overfilling may create rippling. Best to talk with your plastic surgeon.
