Are my implants not wide enough? I got moderate 275 cc axillary incision I am not happy with this result. I was going for cleavage not two baseballs on top of my chest. In the pokadot dress photo I’m wearing a push bra with them and you cannot tell there’s any cleavage. Would getting a bigger implant fix this issue? Why did this happen?
Answer: Can't see through your clothing Dear Genius, Nude before and after photos would allow a better opinion. Your final result is dependent on multiple factors. If your breasts are wide apart, there is only so much you can do with the canvas you are presenting. The amount of breast tissue you start with, the position of your breasts, the type of implant, and the placement of the implant all play a part in your final result. Going with a larger implant would make it worse. A moderate plus or classic profile silicone gel, under the properly released muscle, would give you a more natural result. If you have all those things, then this is the best it will be. Best wishes to you!

Answer: Revision If the implants are in front of the muscle, it often tends to look like more of a step off look that you do not like. Your implants may be high profile which the base is quite narrow. The implants need to be placed more medially and possibly large implants with a larger base.

Answer: Unhhappy with implants An in person evaluation and discussion of your goals is needed to help determine the best recommendation for you. Cleavage is influenced by the width of the breast bone. Axillary incisions are rare for me. The incision in the inframammary fold allows me to visualize the pocket for optimal implant selection and placement.

Answer: Breasts You need to submit a nude photo or a better response. However, I suspect you do not have much breast tissue to cover the implants, so their shape shows through. Going bigger might make that worse. Plus, your breasts appear to be somewhat far apart. The bases cannot be moved.

Answer: Evaluation in person Difficult to say based off of photographs alone. In some patients, the chest muscles are far apart from each other and limit how close you can get the implants to each other--in these patients, switching to subfascial and/or fat grafting the medial breast can typically improve cleavage . I would be curious about the base width of your breast versus the implant width as well, as sometimes this look can happen when the implant is too narrow for the breast. You should see your surgeon or seek another opinion in person to evalulate and discuss your options.
