Asked By:Unsure2013 in San Diego, CA

Dear doctors, I have gained weight in the ~10 years since my implants. They started a 34c after aug and are now a 34 DD. if I explant and then lose weight (hopefully ~10 lbs or ~10% fat--I'm 5'4 and 145 lbs), what are the ramifications? Could weight loss in the first year after explant cause negative aesthetic results? Thank you.
