I’m 5’2” 100lbs, 34 years old one child. I want to get into acting and modeling again so I don’t want to look like a [RS bleep] but I def want to be very big, full with cleavage and side boob.I am freaking out. My surgery is in 4 days and I can’t decide size and brand. My doctor suggested I go with the Allergan to get more projection.But then he said I should go with the Sientra because of the warranty. I think 470ish is the right size and I’m going under the muscle with a lift. I think I’m a 32b or C?

Answer: Implant size and type Thanks for your question. Unfortunately, it is impossible to give an accurate assessment and plan without performing a formal history and physical examination. That being said, in reviewing your photographs, you may benefit from breast lifting in addition to augmentation. Placing large implants during a lift procedure can make final results less predictable and increase risks. In regards to implant size selection, I suggest that you rely on actual patient pre and post photographs. The gallery at the "breast implants by mentor" website would be a good place to start. Find patients that are representative of your goals and share these images with your surgeon. Clear communication with your physician will be critical in achieving a good outcome. Best of luck!

Answer: Surgery in 4 days! Sientra 470cc HP or Allergan 475cc HP? It's a great question. It's difficult to give specific sizing recommendations without an in-person consultation. If you feel that both implants give a similar look, then I would choose the implant with the better warranty. However, your goal look should be the number one factor. I agree with Dr. Rand regarding large implants combined with a breast lift. The implant stretches your breast skin, while the breast lift is meant to tighten it. These competing forces can lead to complications. Also, large implants will lead to more stretching and sagging with time. It's important to speak with your surgeon regarding the pros and cons of large breast implants when combined with a lift. Good luck with your upcoming procedure.
