5 ft 1 half in 105 llbs. Double aa cup preop wanted them bigger but doc said it's a little slower process with me since I had very little skin to work with. Was told about space existing post op didn't think it would be that big. I have a great deal of side booby as well. I'm sad that I wish they were bigger but do u see a revision needed in my future? 375 cc in right and 400 cc in left if I go bigger would they be farther apart and MORE side boob? I'm soon confused and sad.

Answer: Wide sternum You have two issues: a wide sternum and nipples that are very lateral. It is important to keep the implant more or less centered under your nipple or it will cause your nipple to point even more to the side which won't look good. Therefore, simply moving your existing implant more centrally and suturing down the lateral pocket won't make you happy. Your cleavage will look closer and better but trust me your nipple position will bother you a lot! However, if you pick a larger and wider implant I am confident the cleavage can be moved in with some basic, safe muscle dissection and your nipple position will remain the same. That procedure is fairly straightforward. I hope this information helps!Thomas Taylor, MD, FACSPasadena, CA

Answer: Breast augmentation Your breasts are widely spaced. If you want your breasts slightly close together, fat grafting to the medial poles of the breasts could help. If your implants are revised to larger, wider implants, you may have more fullness on the outside of your breasts. It could be that limited medial (inner part of the breast) dissection was done. In a revision, the surgeon could determine in surgery if this could help you or not.
