4 children. Very petite 5ft 7.1st (45gk) Have to have dual plan, round moderate profile 155cc or 185cc Worried about BII and implants attaching to ribs. I also have one inverted nipple due to breastfeeding
Answer: Complication rates are very low after breast augmentation. The complication rate after breast augmentation is very low if the patient is a good candidate, the implant used fits that persons breast dimensions, meticulous surgical care is used, including use of a Keller Funnel for implant insertion, and proper post operative support is given. The odds of encountering different types of problems can be found on each manufacturers website. BII is a poorly understood entity and the best position papers on this can be found the the ASPS website. If you are young and have a breast augmentation, there is a high chance that you will need an additional surgery in the future as the implants are man-made devices and are not meant to last a lifetime. Having an in-depth discussion with your plastic surgeon should help clarify all these concerns. Best wishes.

Answer: Breast Augmentation Complications Thank you for your question. With any surgical procedure and a foreign body such as an implant, there is always a risk; however, the research currently shows that the chances of breast implant illness or the implants attaching to the ribs are very minimal. I recommend speaking with a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss your concerns.

Answer: Implants During your consultation, I sure your surgeon discussed the possible risks with you. If you are still very concerned, don't have surgery.

Answer: Complications are very low After I measure and discuss goals with my patients, we then look at pictures of women (my patients) with similar measurements with different size and style breast implants, and they choose what looks right for them. They also get to see what they would look like when the breasts have fully dropped and fluffed and in clothes. You get to see actual results and the surgeon's experience and not a virtual idea of what can be achieved. Women tell me that this process is very helpful in determining what size and style breast implant is right for them. Dr. Ted Eisenberg, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and Author.

Answer: Complications It is normal to be nervous about surgery. Breast augmentation is a very common procedure that is relatively low risk. Your surgeon will review your medical history to ensure that you are a good candidate for surgery and address any health concerns. BII is not very common and many who do experience symptoms of BII will report that the symptoms improve or resolve when the implants and capsules are removed. I encourage you to discuss your concerns with your surgeon so that you can make an informed decision about what is right for you.
