Downsizing from 500/550cc high profile implants - Which Size/Profile is Ideal for My Body Frame? (Photo)

Question

I have surgery scheduled in couple of weeks for an Implant exchange and lift. I am downsizing from 500/550cc high profile implants to 350cc ultra high. Will this implant size be ideal for my body type. Will the ultra high profile projection still be too much? I am 5’3 and weigh 165lbs.

Gary M. Horndeski, MD · Answer

Your breasts are large and low on the chest wall.  I recommend explantation and breast lift using The Bellesoma Method.  The implants are removed, your breast tissue creating upper pole fullness, elevated higher on the chest wall and more medial to increase your cleavage.  Vertical scars are avoided, nipple sensation (in 95%) and the ability to breast feed are maintained if not injured during your previous surgery.  Later, fat transfers can be performed if additional volume is desired.

Best Wishes,

Gary Horndeski, M.D.
