ORIGINAL POST
I just got the new Mentor Memorygel Xtra (HP)...
WORTH IT$7,375
I just got the new Mentor Memorygel Xtra (HP) today (I put in tomorrow’s date to give me a fair chance to rate follow up care etc). I couldn’t find any reviews on these because they are very new but I’m excited to try them out. I just got out of surgery an hour ago and will brainstorm on the best way to go about the review so I capture all of the stages!

Before the revision
I had my 1st BA with a lift in 2015 with another surgeon in the area. I picked 500cc saline under the muscle, I wanted high profile but he suggested mod + would be best for me. A month later I decided to get a tummy tuck by the same doctor, after having one kid, I needed one for my self esteem. I had him work on the nipples during the TT because they weren’t even. About a year later my skin completely stretched out and could not hold the implants up making them look deflated. I then shopped around for a surgeon to do a revision but the best price was with my original surgeon so I went for it again. This time I did not heal well, I blistered all around the Areola causing a lot of discoloration. My right boob did not close and was completely open. My surgeon waited to see if it would resolve itself using algicell sheets but it did not. He sewed it shut resulting in a square shape and ugly scarring. They were perkier this time after a year but still started to sag a little and the scaring was terrible, they looked nice in bras and clothes but not nude. I decided I needed another revision and this time I would go with a different surgeon. I ended up going to Dr.Schneider who agreed I needed to downsize and suggested I get silicone impants to maintain a better shape. This time during the revision it was all about the shape, big boobs to me are pointless if they don’t have a nice shape. We worked things out for me to get the new mentor xtra memorygel in HP. The projection is higher than that of my salines, also I did not like how much my boob stuck out to the side before, it made me look odd, so Dr.Schneider did a lot of work on my side boob area to hopefully stop the new implants from falling to the side. Here are some pictures of the 500cc saline mod + that I had. I also got my nipples tattooed darker after the surgery before this, because they were shinny and an odd color after the surgeries. This time there was no work on my nipples, I haven’t gotten to ask the doctor about this yet, but I’m hoping because of the way he positioned these they look even.

So I feel like I have some asymmetry going on. My right one seems bigger than my left one. And when I look down I notice a slight slant. It’s really frustrating because when I put on normal bras the right side doesn’t fill out the bra enough to match the cleavage of the left. So I like the left side but the right side is still depressing, especially since I blistered on a previous revision augmentation and was expecting most of it gone with this revision. My surgeon wants to wait and see how these heal before he decides to cut out the scars even though I thought we agreed to do it with this revision. I feel like we have to redo that boob anyway because it’s way smaller than the other. Now I have to probably wait 2 more months before this is solved ahhhhhh. I’m trying to not look down this asymmetry is killing me.

You look amazing. I am going with mentor xtra. I am currently a 34 b and my surgeon suggested 450 cc to get me a d cup. I just hope that these implants will give me cleavage because my breasts have a gap in them and it gives me the roundness I want

Thanks! Are you getting the high profile or the moderate plus? I have a lot of projection with the high profile but I’m starting to think the width is too small for my frame and I should of stuck with moderate plus! I will probably get a revision to go bigger and will aim for 400+ I had 500ccs but they were way too big for me.

I think the mentor xtra are in between a high profile and an xtra high profile . I worry they are not wide enough as well . I want them completely round with a full upper pole
