F, 25, 58KG, 1.50CM, ELASTIC LEATHER Hi, I had breast augmentation with lift and implants 3 months ago to correct my asymmetry. My implants are round shape 175-250cc above the muscle implants. I'm unhappy with the results because my breasts are so different, I can feel implants and they annoy me. I prefer to remove them immediately and to try to correct my asymmetry of 70-75cc with fat injection. Should I have a lift, too? Before and after augmentation photos:

Answer: Explant with mini lift Removing 175-250 cc implants and placing with 70-75 cc of fat will provide inadequate volume. The technique I recommend is explantation and mini lift. Using a circumareola incision, the implants are removed, your breast tissue is reshaped creating upper pole fullness, elevated higher on the chest wall and more medial to increase your cleavage. At the same time, fat transfers can be performed for additional volume. Best Wishes, Gary Horndeski, M.D.

Answer: prefer to remove implants & have fat injection, do I need a lift too? Hello @Sincere666162, thank you for your question. Performing a total capsulectomy is important if you are considering an explant. The most optimal and aesthetically adequate option would be immediate reconstruction with the BRALAN technique (Breast Reconstruction Anatomical Lift Augmentation) and a lift. I link a video that sheds more light on the matter. Best wishes! Alan Gonzalez MD, FACS.
