I had a breast augmentation over a month ago. I was totally flat, no kids and skin pretty tight. My doctor couldn't fit anything bigger than 300cc high profile. I know I will want to have a second surgery. Do you think my skin will be easier to stretch since I have already implants or there is still risk that my skin won't stretch much again. I am just wondering if it's possible for me to add another 300cc or 250cc. Does having first augmentation makes it easier for adding bigger implants 2nd time.

Answer: Larger Implants Without pictures or seeing you in person, it's hard to adequately answer your question. Yes, to a certain degree, your current implant will stretch your skin. However, there are other factors to consider when determining the size of your implant including the actual size of your chest. It may be that your chest is too narrow to accommodate the larger implant. My advise would be to wait at least 6 months, enjoying your new breasts, and then see how you feel. If you still think that you'd like them bigger, book a consultation with your surgeon to discuss options.

Answer: More stretch That's difficult to answer- yes your skin should stretch somewhat, but probably not enough to double the implant size.Over time, your breasts may change due to pregnancy, hormones, weight, aging, etc to allow larger implants as you are only 1 month out.There may be some other options for larger implants such as ultra high profile and/or adding fat grafting (if you have adequate fat on your body and are a candidate).An exam and consultation with your plastic surgeon is recommended.
