I am a 30-year-old who is done having children I am more than ready to have the breasts of my dreams. I need a lift and would like to have the largest breasts possible in a single surgery. I have had a few consultations… one has said they can do the lift and get me to the 700-900 cc range using saline, and I have had another say they would not be able to put in (nor would they) anything larger than a 360 silicone implant. I love the look of XL implants but am weary of the XL complications.
Answer: How big of an implant is safe for me considering I also will need a breast lift? I think you can probably have somewhere in between the two. In general, the larger the implant the greater the rate of complications. I think that a vertical lift and up to about 500 cc is reasonable.Kenneth Hughes, MDLos Angeles, CA

Answer: Breast implants in the 300-350 cc range are safer with a breast lift Very large breast implants in the 600-700 cc range can cause serious complications when placed in conjunction with a breast lift. Please follow the plastic surgeons advice Re: Smaller implants.

Answer: How Big is Too Big with #BreastImplants The answer to the question of how big is too big is up to you. I don't mean that you get to pick your size, necessarily, but what do you want out of the implants. If this is a surgery that you want to last a long time and give you long lasting, satisfying results, I would warn you against XL implants. If you want 10 or fewer years and a series of complicated attempts to fix your breasts thereafter, then XL implants are not unreasonable. The complications with XL implants are not immediate. They are due to the constant, chronic effects on your tissue by the heavy, overstretched implants. For some women, the decision to sell the future for their ideal breasts now is worth it. I would warn against it, however.Having said that, a 360 implant is very unlikely to give you a satisfactory result. Your body will likely tolerate a larger implant and this may provide a compromise between the XL and the too small.Best,Dr. Pyle
