Thanks for your photo and story. In the US we are eagerly anticipating the release of the gummy bear gels, however your case illustrates the importance of matching the correct device with the patient's objectives. I've implanted 3 patients with these devices and have only a 66% satisfaction rate; both are unilateral breast cancer reconstruction patients. Just like you, my cosmetic patient feels that her breasts project too much and are stiff.
With reference to your choice of Mentor Moderate profile 225cc gels, I think you have chosen well. The lateral photo shows that a good nipple position, so I doubt that you will need a mastopexy. You should be favorably impressed by how much movement your breasts will have as a consequence of the switch out. Good luck.
