The larger the implant the more stretch of the breast. This certainly could lead to increase skin laxity. Consider this before having surgery
Hello 'audrinapatterson', thanks for your question. Depending on how large you go with the augmentation, yes, the implants will stretch your native breast tissue to accommodate the larger size. If later on you decide to get them removed, there is a chance that you may need a breast lift in order to restore the perky contour of the youthful breast. There are multiple factors that affect the chances of this including the size of the implants that are removed, your age, the elasticity of your native breast tissue, stretch marks, if you are a smoker, other comorbidities, how long the implants have been in, etc. Be sure to see a board-certified plastic surgeon for your surgery and let me know if you have any other questions. Good luck!-Dr.92660
