What Implants Should I Choose to Replace my Teardrop Implants?
sunlover86Feb 9, 2009
I had my first breast augmentation surgery in 2003. I was an A cup before the surgery. I am 5'7", thin build. I wanted to go with a more natural look so decided to go with the teardrop. My first surgery had to be re-done, since one of the implants did not fall. I initally had 450cc in each, which only made me a B or very small C cup. I told the doctor I wanted to go up a size for the second surgery, so I went with 550cc in one breast and 575cc in the other.
After the surgery the doctor told me my chest caves inward, which is why I had to go with such a large implant to achieve a large C/small D. I have been fairly happy, though I have some rippling, they do not feel natural, no cleavage, and they stick out under my armpit.
Since the implants I have had two children and breastfed both for about 9 months each. I have noticed a reduction in size. I am ready for new implants, but will not go with the textured teardrop again. I am wondering which is the better choice for me - a traditional round or a high profile. I do want a large C, small D look, but would like some cleavage. What implants should I choose for replacement? Also, is one a better choice than the other with my concaving chest?
