Breasts Look Flat After Implant Replacement and Lift

June 23, 2010
Asked By:sillycell in Northern California

I had old implants from 18 years ago removed and had new ones put in along with a breast lift. My PMD only gave me 150 cc which I think is small. I had my surgery 3 weeks ago and they look like flat fat pancakes. I was wearing a 42DD and he says I will possibly still be a D cup. Why would Dr's. only fill the implant with so little solution? He said I could go back and they can add more but how will that happen? How would they know where to poke me to get to the implant?

David Shafer, MD, FACS says:

There will really be no appreciable difference between a 500 and 600 cc implants.  To see a full cup size difference, there really needs to be a 200 to 250 cc increase in volume between implants.  I hope this is helpful.  Good luck.
