Asked By:Nolalewis in Portland, OR

I am a 46 year old African American female. I teach dance and fitness so my breasts have always been an issue for me. I had them lifted in 2004 and a 275 saline implant(placed behind the muscle) was suggested for fullness. I am currently a 38DD. I am in relatively good shape still. I'm 5'10 205 pounds. My goal weight is 175. I am muscular so my lean muscle weight is typically at 155 when I'm in shape. Should I loose the weight or get the explant and possibly a lift later?
