Mentor silicone implants in 1400 cc's?

Hi, I'm 5 ft 10 and got 800 cc's mentor silicone under the muscle. They look small on me because I'm tall and have broad shoulders. I went with the high profile too. My plastic surgeon said Mentor is supposed to come out with up to 1400 cc's silicone implants. I really want them and I'm just wanting to know when they're going to become available. Thanks. Currently a 34 DD/DDD

Ask your surgeon what size implants they recommend. I would also speak with them about their thoughts on frequently lifting pecs. Implants placed under the muscle move down and to the outside with contraction of the pectoralis muscle. Although it's okay to do any activity that you like with ...

Thank you for your question. I agree with the plastic surgeon who recommended higher profile. You may also wish to consider some Autologous Fat Augmentation and contouring to get the desired results in addition to Breast Implants. All The Best !

An internal bra is not a capsulorrhaphy (sutures in the scar capsule.) It is placement of a material that provides support for either an implant, the breast tissue, or both. Materials most used for this are Strattice (for implant coverage and support) and Galaflex mesh (for breast lift, with or...

Your implant is a version of the "gummy bear" implant that everybody has been waiting for. It has been available in Europe for years and was finally introduced in the United States in early 2017.  I understand your confusion, because to my knowledge, Allergan has not released a sizing...

Wow! I admire the optimism and positive attitude.  August 11th will give you about one month into your recovery. Although you can probably drive, I would advise you not to do any heavy lifting until about 6 weeks after your surgery. Please have this discussion with your surgeon. ...

Larger implants have a much higher revision rate. 800 cc implants are basically considered temporary. It is very difficult for the breast tissue and skin to support the weight. Such implants are generally removed in a short period of time, followed by downsizing and mastopexy (breast lift). I ...
