I has my first breast augmentation almost 5 years ago. I has 300cc gel implant under muscle. It's way too big for my petite frame. I went to another Dr and told him my problems and he down side it just to 275cc and liposuction on both sides of my breasts near my armpits. I'm 7 weeks now and it looked as big as before. I'm so unhappy with the result. After all the money that I paid him and ended up with the same problem. I need a redone and a lift. He cannot charge me again, does he?
Answer: Redo breasts augmentation Dear Bella, Thanks for submitting your pictures, however full front view and right lateral view would have been helpful. Sorry for your problems and unsatisfactory outcome of your 2 surgeries . From observing your pictures. you appear to be C or small C cup size. Reducing your implants size to 200 cc, will bring your to a B cup size, which hopefully will make you happy. In addition to the breasts size issue, you have also other problems with, at least, the right breast - lateral displacement of the implant and capsule contracture medially, creating a wide cleavage. You do not have ptosis (droopiness), so a lift procedure is not necessary. When you replace the implants, I would recommend, for better outcome, to have your surgeon perform lateral capsulorrhaphy (internal bra) and medial capsulotomy (scar release) on the right breast, for the creation of nicer cleavage and more natural look. Always, consult with experienced board certified plastic surgeons who operate in accredited surgery center for your safety. Most importantly, check the before and after pictures of redo breasts augmentation in the photo gallery, to make sure that they are numerous, consistent and attractive . Best of luck, Dr Widder

Answer: I want to downsize to 200cc to a more natural look. Do I need a lift? Without pre-op photos, benefit of physical exam and reading your op-reports it's difficult to comment accurately. Thorough communication with a Surgeon is always recommended prior to undergoing a surgical procedure. I suggest that you return to your Operating Surgeon and discuss your concerns.

Answer: Implant removal Really there is no way to tell for sure if you will be happy with the position of your nipple and breast after you downsize the implant. The right size for your implant and whether or not you wanted to the lift needs to be determined with a long conversation with your surgeon. You can always try downsizing and lift at a later time if needed.Best of luck! Dr. SubbioBoard-Certified Plastic SurgeonNewtown Square/Philadelphia, PA

Answer: I want to downsize to 200cc to a more natural look. Do I need a lift? I think that it is most likely, that if you downsize to 200 cc, that breast lifting will not be necessary.Generally speaking, the policy regarding coverage of expenses for revisionary surgery will vary from office to office and probably on a case-by-case basis as well. Costs of revisionary surgery may range from zero, to anesthesia/surgery center fees, to discounted surgeon's fees. Also, I generally speaking, I suggest patients communicate their concerns in a calm and constructive fashion; this form communication tends to be much more effective than confrontational communication. Best wishes; hopefully through courteous/respectful communication you and your plastic surgeon will be able to work out a plan to achieve your goals.

Answer: I want to downsize to 200cc to a more natural look. Do I need a lift? I'm Asian. Will my scar be really bad afterwards? Yes you will be charged for at least new implants, surgery room costs and anesthesia fees, + if adding lift than the MD would add his fee. Best to seek more in person opinions..
