700 cc Implants and Projection

If you just got 700 cc implants placed, you should definitely give yourself time to recover, time for swelling to subside, and time for the implants to drop.

Breast Implants

Sorry you are not happy with your recent 700cc breast implants. I can't tell if they are too projecting or not projecting enough based on your question. If they were recently placed then I would suggest waiting a few months for the muscle and skin to stretch and the implants to settle. Sometimes, especially with large implants like these, if they are placed beneath the muscle, the strong, thick chest muscle may be smooshing the implant flatter than it will be once the muscle relaxes. Give it... more

Sounds like you have avery large implant and you are not happy with them. Exchange to a smaller seems reasonable

I am Not Happy with the Outward Projection

I couldn't make a useful comment without a photo, and I cannot tell from the question whether your dissatisfaction is related to too much or too little projection. Changing implants may allow for some change, but if for instance your complaint is too little projection and if you already have an ultra high profile implant, there will not be much in the way of options. Thanks and best wishes.

700 cc implants

700 cc implants are quite large. Without an exam in person, it is difficult to assess what can be done for you. I suggest a consultation with a doctor.

Unhappy about Breast Projection after Breast Augmentation?

I think you are probably dissatisfied with the lack of “outward projection” after breast augmentation surgery. This projection can be increased with the use of higher profile breast implant or (sometimes) the use of saline filled implants. You may find the attached link helpful to you. Best wishes.

Lack of Adequate Projection With 700cc Implants

While your question is devoid of any helpful information, I suspect what you are concerned about is not having enough outward projection given the large size of the implant. The only possible improvement may be in getting a high profile implant if that is not what you have now. You may have to go to 800cc high profile to get more projection and keep the same volume look.

Profile of implant

Hi, There is no information via a picture or statement that indicates if you are unhappy with overprojection or underprojection. You need to check with your surgeon to see what the "profile" of the implant is that you now have. A "high profile" implant will give you the most projection although there is a super high profile implant that is now available. The lowest projection would be a moderate profile. Of course, it is crucial to know... more

700 cc implants projection

Dear izzy1981, it is going to be difficult to answer without a picture: do you mean you wish more or less projection ? and how long ago was the surgery ? you need to consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon who will need to review the size, and make of your implants, the type of surgery ( below or above the chest muscle ), and your chest measurements, your height, weight, etc.. There are many factors to consider... and also, you should talk to your surgeon who performed... more

Correction of Breast Implant Projection

Dear Izzy1981, Thanks for your question. Breast Implant projection, how for the nipple comes out of the chest wall, is dependent on the size and profile (height) of the implanted device. In order to reduce the projection, one can either choose a small-sized implant, or choose one that has a lower profile. If you've just had the implants placed, I suggest some time to let them settle, and see if another surgery is necessary. It may be that you decide that you like them - so don't rush. If... more

Outward projection after augmentation

The spacing of the breast can depend on the width of your chest, and the position of the nipple. Your implant must be centered in the natural breast with the projection point at the nipple. With a very full implant on a wide chest the implant can tend to project outward. A higher profile implant might be of help to you.

Projection after augmentation

Thank you for your question. The projection of the breast after an augmentation is determined by the profile of the implant that was used. Implants come in a couple of different profiles that vary in their width and their projection. The higher profile implants are more narrow and more projecting for a given volume. If the width of the implant that you now have matches the width of your chest and breast, an higher projecting implant can be selected to give you more overall breast projection... more

High Profile Implants

The way to adjust the outward projection (how far your nipple sits out away from your chest) is by getting a different profile implant. A high profile implant has more projection for the same width of implant. A so called "full projection" implant has yet even more projection for the same width of implant. Frequently patients with implants as large as yours prefer a higher projection implant because of the look that they give.
