I'm athletic and love outdoor activities and decided to get smaller implants and to correct the assymeytry of my breast. Hope you guys can help me. I am do depressed. Thank you.
Answer: Breast implant revision hello gagamba It’s important to know what size bra you currently wear. Is it a 32, 34, 36 bra, and, of course, the cup size? The strap size is important to know because that affects the diameter of the cup and subsequently the diameter of the breast implant that we choose. We also need to know your height, your weight, and it’s helpful to know your dress size as well. In addition, it would be very helpful if you include photos of yourself. A front view, a side view, and a three-quarter view are most helpful. This will let us see if there are any breast asymmetries, if the breasts are narrow, if the breasts are wide, what your chest wall looks. Breast Implant Sizing (generalization for most patients) 32A to 32C needs about 250-275cc34A to 34C needs about 300-350cc36A to 36C needs about 350-400cc

Answer: Downsizing from 400cc HP to 300cc moderate profile? Thank you for your pictures and questions. My first piece of advice is to be patient and not do anything right now. At only three months from surgery, there is still some healing and settling to take place. It is possible that with time you will adjust to the size and be happier with the result. Even if you are not, I would not advise revision surgery until at least 6 months. At that point, you can discuss revision options with your surgeon.Good luck!

Answer: Size Yes, the left implant needs to be lowered. If you want to be smaller, then I think it is a good option, especially if you like to work-out. The implant selection should be based on a combination of your desired size, soft tissue dynamics, breast base diameter and skin elasticity. I recommend an in-office examination as well as a detailed discussion with a surgeon who you are comfortable with. Finally, make sure your surgeon is a Double-Board Certified Plastic Surgeon certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS), a member of the American Society of Plastic Surgery (ASPS), a member of the American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS), and a fellow of the American College of Surgeons (FACS).Best,Dr. DesaiBeverly Hills Institute for Aesthetic Plastic SurgeryHarvard Educated, Beverly Hills & Miami Beach TrainedDouble Board-Certified, Double Fellowship-Trained Beverly Hills Plastic Surgeon

Answer: Post ope asymmetry It is very clear that your right implant has bottomed out. This will require internal capsule tightening. I fully agree with you that going to a moderate profile will give a better look. High profile implants look "full". The left implant appears to be in an excellent position. You do not need a lift. Good Luck.

Answer: Asymmetric Breasts Hello,You have dropout of your lower breast. Your higher breast may be fine though, depending on the results of an examination. You will need a revision surgery to improve your result. you will not need a breast lift, but will need other procedures that are just as complex and difficult to perform. If your doctor isn't an ABPS certified/ASAPS member surgeon who specialize in revision breast surgery, you should visit a few who are. Best of luck!
