Answer: Is there a noticeable difference between 700cc and 800cc's? currently 4 months post op w/ Mentor HP 700cc lollipop lift. Place a Mentor HP 100cc sizer in your bra at your next consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon. See if you notice a difference. Tall women with larger frames and broader chest, shoulders, and hips can often handle larger implants that would make smaller women's chests look overcrowded and heavier. I would recommend that you go with the size that boosts your self-esteem, and fits your anatomy. Choosing an implant based on an aesthetic goal that exceeds your anatomic capacity may lead to complications and possibly revision.

Answer: The 20% Rule Having done many revision surgeries for size change, I have found that, with the exception of small implants, one needs to change to a size that is at least 20% larger or smaller than their current size to appreciate a change. Your proposed change is slightly more than 14%, which indicates to me that you will either see no change or very little change.

Answer: Implant size and type Dear RSProfile466670, breast implant type and sizing selection is a complicated process and requires a detailed consultation that includes a discussion of your goals, a detailed examination, and a lengthy discussion. But the decision will always start and end with the patient. When it comes to sizing, we have all of our patients find 3 photos of their desired breast size. We ask for naked breast photos because clothing can obscure the true size (push up bras). Next, we consult with patients and go over the photos and take detailed breast measurements during a physical exam. Next, we using a sizing algorithm to determine a range of implants that will work based on the exam and the measurements.Lastly, during the operation, we use silicone sizers in the operating room to see how the size actually looks in the breast. We sit the patient up in the operating room, while asleep of course, and compare the sizer result with their desired look photos. If it is too small, we start the process over with a slightly larger implant. We don't stop until we get the perfect match.Of all of my breast augmentation patients, every one of them has been happy with their size due to this detailed and meticulous process. You don't want to invest time and money into a result that is either too big or too small.You should discuss your concerns with a board-certified plastic surgeon and make sure that your surgeon understands your goals.

Answer: Breast lift you don’t show photos but if you currently have a good result why mess with it. There’s the costs involved, plus you already have quite large implants. Of course it’s your choice but I don’t see the value of a revision to go just a little bit larger.
