Asked By:ricey_79 in Kilsby, England, United Kingdom
In Nov 2021 I had a breast lift (anchor) and augmentation (240cc, subglandulsr mentor memory gel xtra moderate plus profile) My inframammory folds are uneven (not sure if a result of the incisions for the uplift) so can these be rectified? Can I get larger implants after an uplift (a reaugmentation?) I loved the size of the but after the swelling subsided i can’t help but feel I should have asked for bigger. I’m 4ft 10, fluctuate between 48 - 50kg & 28” under bust
