Revision - 560cc or 615cc Breast Implants?

The sizes you are considering (560cc vs 615cc) are fairly large breast implants, which are associated with more complications than smaller sized implants.  The difference of 55cc may not make a very big difference in your size in the end, however the extra weight of the larger size will lead to more stress and stretch on your breast tissue. This could lead to you another revision in the future.  I think you should have your plastic surgeon show you these two different size implants and consider the ramifications of selecting the larger one.

No one can tell you which implant is right for you, but we do know that larger implants do have more future complications.

When choosing between two different sizes, try sizers on to help you decide. Try a 5 oz sizer and a 7 oz sizer to differentiate between the two.

Hi there-

For a woman your size, both of the implants you mention are fairly large...

And I strongly agree with Dr. Aldea as well- the appropriate way to select implants for any individual patient should involve not only her goal for appearance, but also a detailed understanding of her anatomy and the dimensions of her body. This is the "one right result" concept.

When implant are used that are significantly larger than what would be appropriate using the above concept, the patient will likely experience a negative long term change in the appearance and comfort of her breasts as gravity and the weight of the large implants combine to cause a marked loss of skin quality and marked excess of skin quantity. At that point, a well-done breast lift may help, but the loss of skin quality will NEVER be able to be restored.

I also do not necessarily agree that better cleavage (if you currently have a bit of a gap between your breasts) will require a larger implant.

Be careful with this. Make sure you are doing what will keep you safe and make you happy- not just in the short term, but in the longer term as well.
