25 years old / 160 lbs / 5'6" / Size Before Surgery: 38A / Size I Want: Full D / Surgery Date: November 22, 2013 / Saline Implants: Natrelle STYLE 68MP MODERATE PROFILE, 420cc each filled to 475cc / Under the muscle / Inframammary Crease. What do you think? I am not happy with how they look. They are wide apart and there is no upper pole fullness. I still feel flat chested, even more when I lay down. I want more fullness at the top of my breasts.

Answer: Based on my pictures, what do I tell my plastic surgeon to achieve the results I want from my breast augmentation? I would suggest that you communicate with your plastic surgeon in a similar fashion that you have communicated here. In other words, both verbal and photographic (goal pictures) communication will be helpful. Show him/her what you are trying to achieve while standing in front of a full-length mirror and/or while lying down.It may be that the use of larger volume implant and/or internal suture “adjustments” of the breast implant pockets (capsulorraphy) will be helpful/necessary to keep the breast implants where you wish them to be both in the upright and supine positions. Make sure that your plastic surgeon does have significant experience with revisionary breast surgery. I hope this, and the attached link, helps.

Answer: Expectations after breast augmentation I agree with everything Dr. Frank said so I am not going to repeat his comments. But to expand on one point, you must realize that the most important thing predicting how you will look afterward is how you look BEFORE surgery. After all, with a straight breast augmentation, we are creating a pocket and slipping an implant into it. Sure, there are many different sizes, styles, and shapes of implants, but there is not much we can actually do to change the breast itself (this is in contrast to breast lifts or reductions, where we DO change the breast), or for that matter your ribcage or where your pec muscle inserts, etc. Your pre-operative breast shape is significantly different from the woman in the photo you liked. I think you actually have a nice result.
