I had my second breast augmentation in August 2024 with 590cc high profile sientra 107s and a left periareolar mastopexy to correct asymmetry after three pregnancies. Original BA was in 2010 with 360cc moderate profile, round silicone. I'm now a little past 6 months post-op and my left implant won't drop into the pocket. It also has migrated laterally just slightly, resulting in a nipple/areola complex positioned more in the medial half of the breast. What are my options for revision?
Hello, I upsized breast implants from 360cc to 560cc. I was curious to know how difficult it is to downsize breast implants by 200cc with pocket tightening? (no lift) Also is the cost to do so generally a lot more than an initial breast augmentation or are the costs similar if using same surgeon for revision? Additionally, is there more down time required recovery wise since the procedure will involve pocket modification? Thank you
I'm 250/270cc moderate rn and exchanging for bigger because I want more upper pole. My surgeon is deciding with moderate plus and 350 and 385. I don't want to be too much bigger.. just better upper pole. This won't make me MUCH bigger right? I'm also getting pocket tightening and galaflex from bottoming out/lateral displacement
I had saline implants placed in me 10 years ago Unfortunately my left side ruptured last month ago around September 16. I do have a surgery coming up for November 22, to remove and replace. Now Im just scared because I was reading if I wait to long the scar tissue can tighten then capsular contraction and it can affect the new implant. Will leaving them in for 2 months cause a lot of scar tissue with capsular? Will I have difficulties?
Im 4 weeks from downsizing and having a medial pocket repair. I did not have symmastia, but I did not like how close my implants were. My implants looked like they were touching and the sternum skin did lift, but the implants did not cross midline. Ive been wearing a thong bra this whole time with a small rectangular piece of wood underneath the thong part for tension. When I take it off my breast stay separated; however, Im scared they will move back together. How long should I wear the bra
I have 250 and 270 right now. I've always felt like the 270 was bigger than the other. I'm having a revision to tighten the pockets and add galaflex to add upper pole and fix the gap but staying the same size. Would putting 270 in the other help too?
I am 57 and had augmentation 12 years ago.(450/492 cc) I will be replacing them with smaller (go from DD to full C). My breasts were wide set, even before my surgery, and they are worse now. I believe I have waterfall deformity now (and maybe capsular contracture.....can you tell from pics)? Can a Dr reduce the pocket from only the outside, to get more cleavage and less side boob? I will also have a lift, if that changes anything.
20 year old saline implants Neopocket- would there be any issue w the old capsule later on? Infection? Or any possible issue at all? What are the pros and cons and which is the preferred method for less trauma and better longer term result?
I had a breast augmentation revision last year to expand my pocket to accommodate larger implants. One side looks very square and the other is round. Is it possible to undergo another revision to close off the top/ superior part of the pocket so that it takes a more circular shape? Photo attached
