Consider how much larger you would like to be

David A. Robinson, MD answers: Filling saline implants without changing them?

I recently had Saline Breast Implants, and I now wish I would have gone bigger than what I did. Can you fill saline implants without changing them?

Saline implantscan be filled with additional saline however, the size may not change very much.  There are different sizes of implants that are only meant to be filled with a recommended range of saline.  If you fill the implants beyond the recommended range, this can potentially alter the shape of the implant and negate the warranty if the implant ruptures.  You may be better off having the implants replaced with larger ones to achieve the results you desire.
