Going 6000cc. I have been told this will require expanders. Can it be done with 800cc saline implants overfilled? (photo)

Question

I have large natural breasts with a 22.5cm BWD and 6' in height. I have been to consultations with two different great surgeons, and they both say it is very doable but with 2000cc expanders for the wider base. Is it necessary to use expanders or can it be done with permenant 800cc saline implants overfilled with multiple fill ups?

Steven H. Wiener, MD · Answer

I hope this is a typo.  Saline implants can be over-inflated.  The largest volume I have inflated implants to is 2500cc per side.  This takes several procedures to reach this volume. I would be very hesitant to go beyond 2500cc.

Mahlon Kerr, MD, FACS · Answer

did you mean 600cc?  The largest implants easily available from FDA approved companies max out in the 900+ cc range, no plastic surgeon would recommend an implant at is 6000cc

Lee E. Corbett, MD · Answer

I don't think an 800cc implant will tolerate 6000cc of volume. I've never tried though. I know you can take an 800cc implant up to around 1200cc which I have done in reconstruction cases. You are best served to check back with the two surgeons you have met with. I would bet that most plastic surgeons have never put 6000cc into a breast.

Thank you for the pictures.I'm thinking you meant to write 600 instead of 6000? This can be done by placing the 800 cc's but this will carefully have to be discussed with a certified plastic surgeon who can assure you that you'll have the results you're seeking.Dr. Campos

Typo? I might be cable to place 800 to 900 cc in your case. So seek more in person opinions to achieve the large fake look..//
