This is a very good question, and one that I address with every augmentation consult. Of course, no plastic surgeon wants you to have any change in sensation. However, it common to have some temporary numbness after surgery or less commonly increased sensitivity. Again, usually this is temporary, but occasionally changes can be permanent. Good luck with your procedure!
Thank you for your question. The goal of the surgery is to maintain the sensation that you had prior to your surgery.All the best,Dr. ResultsMiami, FL
No one can guarantee what kind of sensation you will have after breast surgery. Many women are unchanged, some are enhanced, and some feel less. A very few loose complete sensation.
Unfortunately no one on this or any other website will be able to adequately predict whether your breast sensation will remain the same, be decreased, or be enhanced after undergoing a breast augmentation.I would suggest you finda plastic surgeon certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery andideally a member of the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS)that you trust and are comfortable with. You should discuss your concerns withthat surgeon in person.Robert Singer, MD FACS La Jolla, California
No, you will have entirely new experience. It is not all about sensation which also will certainly be modified, but also new size will play a role. Both mind and senses interact to new physical form achieved with breast augmentation. Implants have no feeling and snsitivity of breasts could be enhanced or diminished from surgery. Thus no pediction can be made. It will be journey of discovery.
It is almost impossible to answer this question unfortunately due to the subjective nature of sensation/perception. That being said, TEMPORARY changes in sensation are common and expected; permanent changes (a subjective DECREASE) are common with very large augmentations, but permanent LOSS of sensation is thankfully rare (but of course can still happen). I hope this is helpful - good luck!
There is a low percentage rate of patients who lose sensation after breat augmentation surgery. There is also a risk of hyper-sensitivity. For example, some patients report numbness for a few months. My best suggestion: select your plastic surgeon carefully. Communicate your goals carefully and learn about the potential risks/complications associated with breast augmentation surgery; doing so will allow you to make an informed decision whether or not to proceed. Best wishes.
Thank you for your question. After three years, you should not be concerned about any serious damage to the implant. If you become increasingly concerned as more time passes, please see your surgeon.All the best,Dr. ResultsMiami, FL
There are pros and cons to saline and gel implantsSaline implants tend to be more fluid than gel.They can also have rippling.We use the adjustable saline implants which tend to have less of these problems .The major advantage is the of the ability to change the size after surgery
Hi Anne Marie, thanks for your question on which implant size would be best for you. Right now it sounds like you’re considering 492cc and 530cc. Since there is no way to say definitively over the internet which size would be optimal for you, take comfort in the fact that the surgeon uses y...
