I recently had breast augmentation. While I'm happy with the results, I would prefer to upsize my implants and change the profile style to accommodate such change. I'm 5'7, 145 pounds, 12.5 BW and currently have 339cc mod+ implants. I've consulted with my PS, but since this will be my 2nd procedure (and hopefully my last for a long time), I'm interested in other opinions/recommendations. I've included 2 pre BA photos, post BA photos and 2 "wish" photos. Thank you kindly in advance :)
Answer: Redo breasts augmentation Dear Kara, Thanks for submitting your before and after pictures as well as your wish pictures. From observing your pictures, you appear to be C cup size with level 2 ptosis on the right side, small double bubble on the right side and quite large areolas. Your goal pictures are between C cup and D cup. Your before pictures appear to be small A cup size. You did not provide your chest circumference measurement in inches , which is critical for the correct implants size selection, according to your desire. Let's assume that you are currently 34 C cup, to become 34 D cup you will need implants with volume of 500 cc. Additionally, you will need the following procedures for optimal outcome: 1. Bilateral capsulotomy (capsule release), to make more room for larger implants and obtain natural looking slopes. 2. Left inferior capsulorrhaphy (internal bra) and right inferior capsulotomy , in order to achieve fold symmetry. 3. Bilateral areola reduction(donut) , to achieve smaller and more attractive areolas with additional mini lift (donut) on the right side for for symmetrical nipples position. Your best financial option is to return to your original surgeon, however if you lost confidence , consult with experienced board certified plastic surgeons who do lots of redo breasts augmentation in accredited surgery center for your safety. Most importantly, check the before and after pictures in the photo gallery, to make sure that they are numerous, consistent and attractive with youthful and natural look. Best of luck, Dr Widder

Answer: Upsizing I would recommend Silicone "gummy bear" round implants which are at least 200cc larger than what you already have to notice a significant difference. I recommend an in-office examination as well as a detailed discussion with a board-certified Plastic Surgeon certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery.Best wishes!Dr. DesaiHarvard Educated, Beverly Hills & Miami Beach Trained, Double-Board Certified Plastic Surgeon

Answer: Breast Augmentation Revision While revision surgery is not expected, the most common reason for a second surgery is changing the size of the implants. Upsizing is generally more straightforward then downsizing. While the larger implants may require modifying the existing pocket, smaller implants may require performing a breast lift at the same time. One great tool for deciding on breast implant size is VECTRA 3D imaging which we provide at our office. Good Luck

Answer: Breast augmentation revision for upsizing only Thank you for the question. Keep in mind as you are thinking about your goals that sometimes adjustment of the breast implant pockets (capsule adjustments) may be necessary to achieve the outcome you are looking for. Generally speaking, the best online advice I can give to ladies who are considering revisionary breast augmentation surgery is:1. Concentrate on choosing your plastic surgeon carefully. Concentrate on appropriate training, certification, and the ability of the plastic surgeon to achieve the results you are looking for. Ask to see lots of examples of his/her work.
