Should I get a round implant instead of Ergonomix? (Photo)

Dear GUEST4,
breast implant type and sizing selection is a complicated process and requires a detailed consultation that includes a discussion of your goals, a detailed examination, and a lengthy discussion. But the decision will always start and end with the patient. When it comes to sizing, we have all of our patients find 3 photos of their desired breast size. We ask for naked breast photos because clothing can obscure the true size (push up bras). Next, we consult with patients and go over the photos and take detailed breast measurements during a physical exam. Next, we using a sizing algorithm to determine a range of implants that will work based on the exam and the measurements.Lastly, during the operation, we use silicone sizers in the operating room to see how the size actually looks in the breast. We sit the patient up in the operating room, while asleep of course, and compare the sizer result with their desired look photos. If it is too small, we start the process over with a slightly larger implant. We don't stop until we get the perfect match.Of all of my breast augmentation patients, every one of them has been happy with their size due to this detailed and meticulous process. You don't want to invest time and money into a result that is either too big or too small.You should discuss your concerns with a board-certified plastic surgeon and make sure that your surgeon understands your goals.

Good morning,
Yes indeed for your desired results you need a round implant, a little wider, with more projection, which also likely means a little larger.

Hi
I assume your surgeon would have had a full discussion about the pros and cons of the different implant choices. They all have their pros and cons. It is common with smooth round implants for them to bottom out over time and motiva type of gel is similar. This gives a more natural result with less upper pole fullness. If you want upper pole fullness then a mentor textured round is the best but it comes with a very rare risk of ALCL. In addition you will probably need to go up a cup size as well as changing the type of implant.
