Dear Drs. Had my 16 y/o saline under muscle 660cc implants removal yesterday - I just didn’t like the size for me anymore. He did not remove the capsule. Will the look improve over the next few months or will I need an expensive revision pocket etc to a smaller implant for aesthetics? Im somewhat traumatized by how they now look. thank you
Answer: Breast Lift Hello, and thank you for your question. (Keep in mind that an in-person consultation is necessary for the best advice.) Based on your photos, breast lift surgery (after implant removal) may be a good option to improve the shape, contour, and perkiness of your breasts. The surgery can be designed to minimize scar appearance. If you decide to pursue surgery it’s very important that you find a surgeon whom you are comfortable with and trust and who evaluates you in-person and tailors an individualized treatment plan for you and your aesthetic goals. Best of luck!

Answer: Breast size and shape after explant Thank you for your photos and question. You are extremely early in your recovery so you may experience some changes in shape and laxity. However, you had large volume implants so you may need to consider an additional procedure in the future if you are not happy with your results. I suggest allowing at least 6 months before considering a secondary skin removal and lifting procedure. Until then, follow your plastic surgeon's post operative protocol and follow up as needed to ensure a smooth recovery.
