I would like to downsize my 500 cc high profile implants sometime soon. I would like them to be more perky and a tad smaller. What would that involve? How will the excess skin be treated from going from large to smaller? That is my main concern. How many ccs do you recommend? I'm thinking 375cc HP. I am 38 years old, 125 pounds and 5'4. Thanks in advance for your answers!
Answer: Implants Yes, I agree with going smaller since this size is too large and heavy for your frame. In going smaller, the lateral pocket can be tightened internally and minimally invasive skin tightening like Renuvion or Thermitight can be used to help tighten the breast skin. Otherwise, you may need a lift.

Answer: Downsizing This is a complex issue. Sometimes when patients are young and/or have excellent quality skin/tissue...simply downsizing is adequate because the skin and tissues will retract. Regardless, these are all my own opinions based on the photos provided. I would recommend seeing a plastic surgeon who has great training and experience in aesthetic breast surgery.

Answer: Downsize Hi. I think you will look very nice with smaller implants. Your breasts may not feel as tight, but I don't think you will have enough loose skin to make it worth getting a breast lift. Talk to your surgeon about the expectations. Best of luck!

Answer: Explant with Bellesoma Method As you can see in your front view, your breasts are wider than your chest wall. You will need smaller implants. The technique I recommend is explantation and lift using The Bellesoma Method. 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. Vertical scars are avoided, nipple sensation (in 95%) and the ability to breast feed are maintained if not injured during your previous surgery. Later, fat transfers or small implants can be placed if additional volume is desired.
