I had ba 1 month ago and I feel like the top of my skin is still saggy. I want it to look full! I'm afraid I didn't go big enough. I for 325 filled to 345 saline low profile implants. Is it the profile that is making them not look full? Or the fact that after 2 kids and nursing my skin was just too loose? Help. I'm thinking I need to redo them. Also do most surgeons charge to redo?

Answer: Saggy in Deer Park Very good answers by my two colleagues. How someone wants to look is such a subjective thing. I think you look SO natural and that is the look everyone is going for these days. Without an exam it's impossible to know if you should have had a lift. The basic rule is if the nipple is at or below the level of the inframammary crease you probably need a lift. That said I never have used low profile saline. I only use moderate plus or occasionally high profile. And I always overfill by 10-20% depending on BMI. Most surgeons I know charge for a redo. However that's typically to do a revision if there a problem that wasn't anticipated. I have to say I am curious why you chose saline. You look fairly slender. I would be very concerned about you developing rippling - either palpable or visible in the first 6 months. Also, most implants don't 'drop' into place until week 5-6. So you may still have more changes to come. You might want to watch my video on breast augmentations.

Answer: Implants and saggy All the issues you mentioned could impact the results. Loose skin or poor quality tissue, flatter implants or volume issues, or perhaps you needed a lift. You need to be seen in person to be properly evaluated.
