Can I breast feed with implants?
Implants can be safely placed to not affect your ability to breast feed and they will not cause any increased risk to your children.
Breast augmentation
I think that you would be a good candidate for breast augmentation. The shape would improve and you could get some superior fullness. You would have to accept going bigger. Unfortunately the gap on the sides ( cleavage ) would likely not change.
Breast augmentation for long distance runners
Yes, as a long distance runner you can get implants. I would suggest under the muscle dual plane implants and also would recommend textured gel. Textured implants move less and are less likely to shift / bottom out.
Running can sometimes cause downward malposition of the implant leading to a bottomed out look. As an athlete, I would also suggest getting a conservative size. You will not want to run with very large or heavy breasts in most cases.
Lastly, you will need to take time off of exercise to adequately heal. I would suggest 1-2 months of NO running. Most patients need about a week off of work to recover. You should have several consultations with board certified plastic surgeons before making any final decisions.
As always, best to be healthy, no smoking, and make sure any health concerns you have are managed by your primary care md.
Time to wait
The rule of thumb is three months though the best time is when your body weight has stanilized .
You will be fine
Going submammary with a higher profile, textured implant or an aggressive dual plane technique should be fine. You can always add a lift later.
Implant size
The size of the implant is based on your desired breast size/shape, your chest wall measurements, and soft tissue quality. This decision should be based on a detailed discussion with equal input from both you and your surgeon.
This entire surgery can be performed with a small incision technique. Make sure you specifically look at before and after pictures of real patients who have had this surgery performed by your surgeon and evaluate their results and hopefully this can help you make your decision.
Breast Implant Size
If you are considering 300cc’s and 325 cc’s I would recommend the 325cc’s. Any time women are vacillating between two similar sizes they will always wish they had used the larger size. Just to put it in perspective, I can’t remember using such small implants.
I have ladies try on implants, and most use between 400 and 500 cc’s. It doesn’t look like you will be too big.
The second consultation a good idea?
No, it is absolutely not “bad etiquette”. Clear communication prior to proceeding with surgery is one of the keys to success. In our practice, we encourage patients to return as many times as necessary, until they and I feel that we are on the same page.
Ultimately, what matters is that patient’s outcomes be achieved as closely (and safely) as possible; again, careful/clear communication is very important.
Breast augmentation
If you are not satisfied with the size of your breasts, and you want larger ones, then I suggest you see a plastic surgeon to be properly evaluated.
How to choose over or under the muscle for breast implants
With only a small amount of breast tissue, you may be able to see the outline of the implants if you go over the muscle. However, to go under the muscle the pectoralis major muscle is cut and this may bother you when you exercise.
Some percentages for capsular contracture are 9% for saline implants and 13% for silicone implants. If you go under the muscle the rates are slightly lower. There is no way to totally eliminate the risk of rippling or capsular contracture, so know that you may need a revision some time down the line.
Underwire bras are safe after breast augmentation.
Underwire bras are safe after breast augmentation but I usually counsel patients not to use them for the first 4-6 weeks because it can irritate the incision and prevent the implant from positioning correctly. By now there is no harm in using an underwire bra.
What do you recommend, lift, reduction, augmentation or a combo?
A lift will raise your nipple and reshape your breasts. This gives a natural look without a lot of upper pole fullness. Using an implant adds fullness to the upper pole and gives a more perky appearance.
Adding an implant does at expense, and increases the rate that your breasts sag in the future. Speak with your plastic surgeon about the pros and cons of adding a breast implant to your breast lift surgery.
Results from Breast Augmentation depends on the patients body structure
The main factor that dictates the cleavage and implant position is the nipple position and also pectoralis muscle attachment over the sternum. You will get more cleavage with sub-glandular implant placement but this has own disadvantages.
If you have fair amount of breast tissue and would like silicone gel implants, you may consider having your implants above the muscle.
Breast implant
You have a good starting point. With implant, you will gain the fullness; you will have a good result. Please consult a board-certified plastic surgeon to learn about breast implant, risks, limitations, benefits, and long-term effect.
