Saline tissue expanders come in all sizes and can go up to 800cc. Saline expansions done in the weeks after surgery depend on how much a patient can tolerate. A typical fill in our clinic is 60-120 cc per breast, sometimes it can be more. Sometimes (esp in radiated patients) when the tissues are very tight, less filling is done per visit
The average size of tissue expanders depends on the patient's chest width. The average weekly fill is about 50 cc.
There are many different tissue expanders for fill of various different sizes. It really depends upon your anatomy and the size of your breasts that were removed.
Again ONLY IN PERSON examination allows a response. Seek a few in person please. I prefer round but that is after the examination when I determine better route...
Correcting rippling is tricky. You seem to have a great result and any further surgery will always carry a risk of complications. You can potentially worsen a good result in pursuit of a better result. So the question is, does this bother you enough for you to take that chance?...
Are you able to provide pictures?in some patients, because the upper chest skin /muscle is softer, most of the expansion take place there. This is especially common in patients who had radiation and get a tissue expander.
