My skin is stretched and thin.Internal bra or mesh for large implants - will this help to avoid bottoming out or early sagging?

It’s possible to have the fibers of the pectoralis muscle support the weight of the implant against gravity.
It requires that the implant is placed under the Pimas muscle with enough muscle fibers left intact to support the implant. A paragraph part of the pectoralis muscle must be transected in order for the implant to not sit to high when placing the implant under the muscle.
It’s the surgeon’s ability to leave enough muscle intact to support the implant, and at the same time, allowing the implant to not ride high, which differentiates those who get consistent quality outcomes without complications like implants bottoming out.If the procedure is done correctly, you shouldn’t need mesh or an internal bra.
If the procedure is not done correctly, then you will end up with undesirable side effects and increase the chance of needing revision surgery.
There are three variables to determine breast augmentation outcomes.
The first is patient candidacy.
Without seeing pictures, we can’t begin to make an assessment.
The second variable is implant selection in regards to size shape and type.
Anytime, excessively large implants are used the chance of undesirable side effects, complications and need for revision surgery will go up.
The bigger, the implant the more likely these problems are.
The problems becomes, especially likely when the implant diameter is significantly wider than the natural diameter of the breast.
The third valuable is the surgeon’s ability to do the procedure correctly.
In the end, provider selection is the most important variable.
In the hands of the right provider you’ll be guided to make solid decisions and the procedure will be done with minimal chance of needing revision surgery.
Finding the right plastic surgeon is much more difficult than most people realize.
Most people have very little skill in vetting plastic surgeons.
Generally speaking the Moore consultation someone has the better they’ll be at bedding plastic surgeons.
The more plastic surgeons, you interview the more likely you are to find the better provider for your needs.
I recommend scheduling multiple in person consultations with plastic surgeons in your community.
Bring pictures of yourself to use as reference.
During each consultation, ask each provider to open up their portfolio and show you their entire collection of before and after pictures of previous patients who had similar body characteristics to your own.
Ask each provider to ask what the most common indication for doing revision surgery is, what their revision rate is and what their revision policy is.
Take careful notes during each consultation, especially in regards to the quality and quantity of before, and after pictures shown to you.
Being shown a handful of pictures representing only the very best results of a providers career may be insufficient to get a clear understanding of what average results look like in the hands of each provider.
It also is unlikely to tell you The number of patients who ended up with undesirable outcomes or needed revision surgery.
When in doubt, slow down and schedule more consultations.
I really do think that having multiple consultations is one of the best ways of assuring a successful long-term outcome.
I do not recommend patients schedule virtual consultations, but instead rely on in person consultations.
Good luck,
