3 years ago I had 300cc silicon put in below my muscle. Pre surgery I was a full B & perky, now I'm a full C/D. I've had no issues with my implants other than they ruined my budding modeling career. I'm in my early 30s, active, and don't have any stretch marks yet. Will I need a lift? Can they remove through nipple? If so will my nipple cave in? I have large Areolas, do I need re-sizing, or will they shrink back? Looking for the least amount of scarring as possible, being ethnic and scar easily

Answer: Breast Implant Removal I would recommend waiting to evaluate if a lift is necessary. It is unlikely that a lift would be needed. I recommend an in-office examination as well as a detailed discussion with a surgeon who you are comfortable with. Finally, make sure your surgeon is a Double-Board Certified Plastic Surgeon certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS), a member of the American Society of Plastic Surgery (ASPS) and the American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS).Best,Dr. DesaiBeverly Hills Institute for Aesthetic Plastic SurgeryHarvard Educated, Beverly Hills & Miami Beach TrainedDouble Board-Certified Beverly Hills Plastic Surgeon

Answer: Breast implant removal and lift Great question! There are basically two ways to approach your situation, depending on which one is more advantageous for you. What is important to understand is that there is a volume and skin issue. When the volume is removed, the question is what do we do with the excess skin that has been stretched out. Just like in pregnancy, the skin itself will retract to a certain point - depending on age and quality of skin. If you are looking for the least amount of scarring, then the best approach maybe to remove your implants first, and see how much the skin retracts. After 6-12 month, you can undergo a lift if necessary. However, this involves 2 surgical procedures. The other alternative is to perform the implant remove and lift at the same time which will save you an extra surgical procedures. However, the scarring maybe more in this situation. As far as your areola is concerned, an areola reduction can be a very good procedure.While the above are just general considerations, only with an in person consultation and physical examination can an appropriate recommendations be provided and tailored for your specific needs. Best of luck and hope this information helps!- Dr. Roger Tsai @DrRogerTsai
