i hav 250cc silicone low profiles under muscle and had a small c to start with. I really would not like to tell anyone i had implants. Wen a guy and I are being intimate, will he be able to tell by feeling them or can i keep it a secret? It seems that when I lie down it is the only time i can tell they are implants cause they are a little hard which is what worries me. Do people ever do that? Like not tell anyone even their husbands?

Palpability of breast implants

Whether the implant is palpable or not usually depends on how much breast tissue the patient has to hide the implant, how large the implant, and whether it is silicone or saline (silicone is easier to hide). In general, relationships are healthier when partners are candid about their medical histories, just my opinion.

Implant feel

Silicone implants are more difficult than saline to palpate. Also,the lower half of the breast where the implant is not directly behind the muscle is easier to palpate, especially if you are thin. This is normal, but I am still sure this will not be problem for either you or your partner. Have fun and enjoy your new look.

Durig sex partner tell if i have implants

I really would not count on your partners not finding out. But apparently you say YOU can only tell when lying down, so i would suggest only being intimate in a sitting or standing position, that will give you your best shot. good luck with this.

Breast implant palpability.

It will depend on how much breast tissue you have, whether the scars are obvious, and your partners diagnostic abilities. They do not need to know, but I do recommend informing your general medical doctor so that mammograms can be ordered with implant displacement views.

During sex your partner may be able to feel your implants, but usually he's not thinking about that!

You have relatively conservatively-sized (250cc) silicone implants beneath your muscle, and you had good breast volume ("small C-cup breasts") prior to receiving your implants. Generally, this would yield very natural results that would feel soft and homogeneous with your own breast tissue. If your implant pockets are overly large for your implant size, there may be excessive implant movement in the pocket that could "give it away," but you state that "they are... more

Implants and partner

It is likely that your partner will be able to palpate your breast implants in some positions or with some handling. This also depends upon the size of the implants and also the amount of soft tissue volume that you start off with.

Steven Wallach, MD

Palpability of breast implants

Breast implants may be visible or palpable, and the scars from the surgery may also be noticeable. Silicone implants feel more like natural breast tissue than saline, and if a patient has a significant amount of breast tissue this may help camouflage the implants. Hopefully you are happy with your decision to have undergone breast augmentation and will share that with your partner.

Does she or doesn't she have breast implants

As they say, only your plastic surgeon will know for sure. Unless of course you tell, and there is nothing to say that you have to. Yes, even some husbands may not know that their wife had had a breast augmentation. The only person you need tell is your mammographer so they can do additional views to see around your implants. After a year or so most women rarely think about their breast implants. We find the 'give away' may be the scar under the breast, and a better concealed... more

Feeling implants through the breast tissue

It all depends on how much breast tissue you have now and how well you're healing. If the implants are soft, the swelling has resolved, and the incisions are well healed then it will be very hard for your partner to know if you had implants placed.
