How much breast tissue do I have? (Photo)

December 5, 2024
Asked By:jessica2394 in Wantagh, New York

Hello! I recently had an MRI of my breasts and also met with a breast surgeon (not a plastic surgeon-I'm waiting for my consult in 3 months) who advised me that my MRI images can assist the PS in determining how much breast tissue I have. My silicone implants were placed under the muscle 22 years ago and I've gained maybe 40 pounds since then so am assuming I may have more tissue now as opposed to then when I was 20 and weighed much less. TIA!
