I recently had my consultation after building up the courage for 10 years! My surgeon has recommended 350cc teardrop mentor implants (I'm a small b breast feed 2 children) . Just wondered if anyone has had similar implants? I do want a natural look bigger & fuller and would also like some full ness at the top. Would this be achieved with the tear drops? Just wanna make sure I get what I want right

Don't use the teardrops. They are very firm and don't move. I can't wait to have mine removed. There is nothing natural about breasts that have no movement. Very firm. I can't wait to have mine replaced with smooth silicon.

I've read so much about the teardrop so glad I booked another appointment. Following the 2nd consultation yesterday my surgeon has advised for me to go with the round implants as they will give me the fullness I'm looking for. Having round 330cc which should get me to a small D

I am happy you got another opinion. My girl friend had her surgery with the smooth silicon implants and she loves them. I have now talked to a few doctors and they all prefer not to use the anatomical teardrops. The lack of movement is so unnatural and when you lay down they remain in the exact position. There is also the risk of these implants rotating. I took a fall 4 weeks after surgery and now the implant on my left side has moved giving the breast a very distorted look plus being very uncomfortable. I wish you the best with your choice.

Have you spoken to your surgeon about your implant concerns and problem? Following my second consultation yesterday my surgeon has recommended mentor 330cc round. I Feel much better with the choice and looking foward to seeing the results soon

I had tear drop 335cc for almost 9 years. Just swap them for round classic. What a difference! Tear drops are like rocks on your chest round ones are like a real breast tissue. Soft, bouncy and squishy;) My husband loves them. We can not belive how BETTER my breasts look and feel now.

From my understanding a moderate plus profile would give u a natural look with some fullness in the top as well but not mad obvious augmented look. Bring pictures to your PS and discuss your choices. Good luck . I'm 6 days away from mine :)

Exciting what did you go for? I See my surgeon again today and he's decided that 330cc mentor high profile would be better for me. Will give me the fullness without being to big. He said I should be cc to small d which I'll be happy with as don't want to be overly big! Four weeks & counting

I'm between 300-325cc moderate plus profile smooth round silicone I will let him decide during surgery as he will see which for my body best

Hi I am in the uk as well and my surgery is 30 August. Have a look at my profile. I am not dissimilar in size to you and also wanted a natural look but with some fullness in the upper pole. I was told by one surgeon that test drop would be the right choice and by the surgeon I chose - round textured would give me the result I wanted. I took pictures if other results which show the look I was going for. I am having 300cc overs Nagor impleo moderate profile. I will post pictures of my after as soon as possible after my surgery. Size is the hardest bit but I am sure you and your surgeon will get that right between you! Good luck and wish you well on your journey to boobie heaven!

Hi I was just curious of the breast size you are right now before you get the 300cc implants and what size you will be with the implants? I go for surgery the same day in 2 days am excited & nervous... Prayers for a quick and good surgery

I'm a 36b surgeon has advised between 300cc/330 cc high profile to give me some upped pole fullness. He said I should come out to a nice size d cup. I am quite tall at 5.11 and he said slim! So advised this would work best for me as didn't want to go to big. Are you having 300cc? Best of luck with you're op hope it all goes well. Look foward to seeing/hearing you're outcome. 3 weeks tomorrow till I'm in I'm feeling excited ones day nervous the next lol x

Hi I am a 32 b small and will be a full 32c which is what I am if I have a padded bra . I live in padded bras so no one should notice the change ! I want them to be very natural looking hence not going bigger!
Best of luck with your surgery! Fingers crossed for a safe surgery and quick recovery! Keep us posted on your progress!

Thanks so much! Am v excited. I am a 32b now and 5'3 so shorter than you. Trust your PS - he will have seen it all before and will want to get you to where you want to be. I am expecting 300 but the surgeon will decide when I am in theatre. He will put 275 and 300 in and sit me up to see which looks best. I will post as soon as I can post surgery.

Great to hear that you have now settled on something that you are happy with and that will give you what you are looking for!
Look forward to your updates as you get close to your surgery and the big day! Who are you going with for your surgery?

I'm having mine done at the esperance by Simon Allan. Who wil be doing yours?
August 26, 2016
I have a friend who works in the industry and she recommended Adrain Richards as the guy she would go to. I looked at lots of his work and like the really natural look he achieved for his patients. I am sure you have done lots of research too. I saw three people and chose Adrian. Keep in touch and I will post once I am out the other side on Tuesday!

Hi Ladies! I'm a 34B right now & im getting 400cc am a lil worried I be a D size and I just want a nice C size... I'm just curious what your bra sizes are right now before you get the implants? Because I may have to talk to the surgeon again... He insisted and did the measurements and said that 400cc silicone cohesive smooth round mentor will be good for me and they did feel good when I tried them on! Any feedback from you ladies would be greatly appreciated Thanks

I'm having either 325cc - 350cc shall decide on day. My surgeon suggested high profile. I'm a b cup at present and surgeon said that should take me to a big c small D as I don't want to go big. He did say cc's come up different on everyone & depends what your working with/body shape/size et. to what you end result will be. I'd trust what you surgeon advises. If you told him everything you want they will know what's best for your body and to get you to were you want to be. Have you had a second opinion? Or talked to you surgeon again about concerns? I had to a good few time to make sure I got every little question answered lol I'm booked in for surgery on the 19th of this month
I'm not sure about your teardrop implant and fullness on the top. I'm assuming you and your doctor possibly looked at pictures together. You can always post questions with helpful pictures to the RealSelf Doctor Q&A to get a variety of doctor responses. When do you hope to get your surgery?
You're right...the first consult appointment can almost be overwhelming. Once you have a general idea of your surgery month, feel free to check in to one of our monthly breast implant forums!
