I'm considering revision. I'm unhappy with my upper pole fullness and cleavage. I currently have 325cc hp implants. I thought 475 moderate plus. Because it's near enough the same projection but got a bigger diameter by 2cm suggestions please?? Also I'm going to see if i can have my right infamatoty fold lowered to match my left to improve symmetry. Thanks in advance. Ps usually how much does a surgeon charge for revision surgery if a patients unhappy?

Answer: How much bigger will I be by increasing my implants 150 cc? Thank you for the question and picture. You will find that online consultants will not be able to provide you with specific advice in regards to selection of specific breast implant size/profile. Keep in mind, as you think about your goals, that adjustment of the breast implant capsules will also be necessary. Ultimately, careful communication of your goals (in my practice I prefer the use of goal pictures, direct examination/communication in front of a full-length mirror, and computer imaging) will be critical. Generally speaking, the best online advice I can give to ladies who are considering revisionary breast augmentation surgery (regarding breast implant size/profile selection) is: 1. Concentrate on choosing your plastic surgeon carefully. Concentrate on appropriate training, certification, and the ability of the plastic surgeon to achieve the results you are looking for. Ask to see lots of examples of his/her work. 2. Have a full discussion and communication regarding your desired goals with your plastic surgeon. This communication will be critical in determining breast implant size/type/profile will most likely help achieve your goals. In my practice, the use of photographs of “goal” pictures (and breasts that are too big or too small) is very helpful. I have found that the use of words such as “natural” or "D or DD cup” or "upper pile fulness" etc means different things to different people and therefore prove unhelpful. Also, as you know, cup size varies depending on who makes the bra; therefore, discussing desired cup size may also be inaccurate. 3. Once you feel you have communicated your goals clearly, allow your plastic surgeon to use his/her years of experience/judgment to choose the breast implant size/profile that will best meet your goals. Again, in my practice, this decision is usually made during surgery ( after the use of temporary intraoperative sizers). Viewing the patient's chest wall in the upright and supine positions, with temporary sizes in place, help select the best breast implant size/profile for the specific patient. I hope this, and the attached link (dedicated to revsionary breast augmentation surgery concerns), helps. Best wishes.

Answer: Increasing implant size 150ccs You appear to have a nice surgical result but if you are not satisfied and you wish more upper pole fullness then yes you will need to increase your implant size. I would have to do measurements on you to determine if hp or moderate plus is best for you. As for size, generally speaking going up 150ccs usually equates to roughly a cup size. Most Plastic Surgeons will give you a discounted rate for a secondary surgery but there is no set standard. Best of luck to you!!
