I want to ask you guys a question about breast implants? Let’s say a women has B + cup size, but she wants to go all the way up to a D cup? Can there be any risks that the larger you go there might be some types of complications after the surgery? Also, I saw videos from surgeons on TV where they make smaller cuts under the arm pit to insert the implant where in the past they used to make a round cut around the breast? After the surgery do they use stitches after inserting the implant?
Answer: Risky to have larger breast implants If one has a frame that can accommodate larger implants, there are no significant risks to going an implant that may give one a 2 cup increase. If one is pushing the volume significantly, there is a higher chance of being able to feel the implant as there is less skin and breast tissue to cover the implant. Obviously, a larger implant weighs more than a small implant and over the years, especially if one has stretch marks, may be subject to gravity more. One must balance this off with the advantages of larger implants.

Answer: Risk with larger breast implants Thanks for your question. Implants that are disproportionately large for your body frame can be associated with increased risk of problems like visible ripples, sagging, and other issues. Implants can be inserted using an incision in the arm pit, under the breast, or around the areola. Every incision has advantages and disadvantages that can be explained in detail during a consultation. The incision is usually stitched with dissolving sutures.

Answer: Complications and Large Implants Hello,Complications like rippling, capsular contracture, excessive tissue stretch and malposition, and double bubble are the kind of complications that occur more frequently with inappropriately sized implants. A physical exam from a surgeon who's not afraid to tell you that a D cup is not recommended (depending on your examination, this might not actually be the case for you) will give you an idea of the ideal implant size.Incisions made under the breast lead to the least risk of problems, follow by armpit incisions. Periareolar incisions are the most popular here in Southern California, but actually put you at highest risk for capsular contracture and other problems associated with scaring of the mammary gland. Visit a few surgeons that are certified by the ABPS and are also members of the ASAPS who do a lot of cosmetic breast surgery.Best of luck!

Answer: Yes Implants that are larger in volume will reduce the amount of tissue coverage. This can lead to visibility and palpability. Stay under the muscle with proportionate size implant
