Axillary or Armpit Incision for Saline and Silicone Implants

Technically, this surgery can be performed. However, as your physician has stated, it may not be advisable in your specific situation. The determination of incision sites is based on several factors, including the degree of preoperative distortion of the breasts, symmetry, capsular contracture, and the volume of the intended new implants.

I would advise you to consider the axillary approach as well as using your previous incisions on the breast. The goal of surgery is not only to minimize the scar, but to acheive a beautiful breast.

This may be better acheived with a anterior breast incision.

Need a lift

You need a lift 100% It is important to realize that not all cosmetic suregry is done by well trained people. There are family doctors now doing cosmetic surgery in there office. It is legal because we expect doctors to do the right thing.

Of course there are the few “Bad Apples” who we need to look out for!

Implants without lift

You may be able to achieve a satisfactory, “perky but natural” result with implants alone, provided you are comfortable with a sufficient amount of volume and projection required to give that lifted look and fill out the stretched skin.

If your preference is to have fairly small implants, you may still have sagging skin visible. Your Plastic Surgeon will examine and measure you the make recommendations to help get you to your goals.

Silicone is safe!

Leaking silicone implants need to be removed. Many studies have been done which demonstrate that silicone does not cause joint disease. Leaking silicone can travel to the local breast tissue and cause small granulomas that don’t cause any harm but may mimic something bad.
Newer cohesive gel implants are better designed to avoid these problems in the future.

Why choose saline if you are worried about rippling?

Although most of the discussion here is about rippling and whether saline ripples even at smaller sizes, I ask you another question. If you are concerned about rippling why would you choose saline over silicone (unless you are under 22 or have some other contraindication)? The smaller the implants the less they will ripple, provided they are filled to the maximum recommended volume.

I am a firm believer that the smaller implants under the muscle will have less noticeable rippling, but it may still be palpable.

Cohesive gel implants

The reason you can not find out the price of the cohesive gel or gummy implants in the US is because they are not yet available on the market. Right now they are only available under a research protocol.

Size

I would suggest going back to your surgeon and ask to try on a variety of sizers from 200 cc’s to 300 cc’s so you can get a better idea of the size you want. Please discuss all your concerns with your doctor.

It is not too late to change your mind about the size.

Breast Augmentation

Someone with a smaller stature may get implants on the larger side. The best way to determine implant size is to have a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon to determine the size and shape of the implant that will fit your frame and meet your expectations.

Know your plastic surgeon’s credentials before signing up for surgery

Every plastic surgeon on this forum has participated in cosmetic procedures during our training period. The standard in 2013 is that all surgical trainees are directly supervised by a board certified or board eligible plastic surgeon.
Any other scenario (unsupervised resident doing surgery) is not the standard of care.

Breast feeding and breast augmentation

I recommend that my patients wait at least 3 months after they stop breast feeding to have a consultation on breast augmentation. There are breast size changes that may occur during this time that would change the accuracy of your consultation.

I would have you wait till you are done breast feeding.

Silicone gel implants in my opinion and the majority of my patients look and feel more natural than saline.

Why do same size implants look bigger on some women than other women?

Because the anatomy differs on each patient as to position, size, shape of each breast… That is why we are individuals.

Implant size

it is really hard to advise re implant size without an in person exam… That being said, 370 cc implants in a woman of your measurements will certainly make a statement – hope this is what you want! best of luck.

Breast Implants in Deflated Breasts

It appears that you have moderate ptosis, which is common in someone with your history. It also appears as if the person you consulted is trying to correct this with a large, projecting implant.

If this is so, it will not work. I would suggest a second consult with another Board Certified Plastic Surgeon who has significant experience with ptosis (breast droop) as well as enlargement.
