Robert M. Jensen, MD answers: Larger Breast implant to create upper pole fullness and cleavage?

The doctor said that my tissue and skin are the culprits, not able to hold the implants up. I am 128 lbs. 5'4 and before surgery between B and C cup.

Upper pole fullness usually can be restored by a revision surgery in which the pocket is modified and a re excision of skin is performed.  Larger implants have the disadvantage of adding weight to the already stretched out breast envelope.  I would only consider larger implants if you wanted to be a larger cup size.  Consult with a Plastic Surgeon who has extensive experience in breast surgery.
