Breast Augmentation after chemotherapy
Feb 18, 2022

As long as you are doing well and your immune system isn’t compromised, you can consider breast augmentation. I recommend your schedule a consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon who can go over your history, examine you and make recommendations. I would want a letter of clearance from your oncologist prior to surgery but the presence of a port should not matter.
Dr. Edwards

Do not want to lose size – Should I get Breast Lift or implant?

Breast lift
Feb 11, 2022

There is no replacement for an in person exam but you appear to be a good candidate for a breast lift. Some tissue will be removed and your breasts will be a bit smaller by the lift and displacement of your breast tissue. I recommend you only consult with board-certified plastic surgeons as you decide who will care for you.

21 years old, currently an A-cup – What would be a good size to go up to?

Best implant choice
Feb 10, 2022

You appear to be a good candidate for breast augmentation. The best option is for you to choose a board-certified plastic surgeon to consult with who can make recommendations after meeting you, examining you, taking measurements and then suggesting an implant to fit your goals.

Combining breast surgery
Jan 15, 2022

It will depend on the plastic surgeon you see but I have numerous times performed the surgeries at the same time. If you do choose to separate the procedures, it should not effect the results. Make sure to see only board- certified plastic surgeons to care for you.

Dr. Edwards

Residual areola
Jan 5, 2022

If Your concern is the residual pigmentation under your areola, this should be easily removed under local anesthesia by a board-certified plastic surgeon. If, in your consultation, you requested a change in the shape of your breast or the position, this would potentially be more involved. Only board certified plastic surgeons as you look for who to care for you.

Increasing implant siz
Jul 30, 2021

The choice of a new implant should be based not just on volume but on the measurements of your chest and breast. You are lean and the larger the implant that you go with the more it can thin your breast tissue, and a wider implant can do the same. Make sure that you only see the board certified plastic surgeon who will take measurements and make suggestions based on these measurements. Also, you should look into a more highly cohesive implant to decrease the risk of rippling and wrinkling….

Breast revision
Jul 29, 2021

By your brief history and single photo it looks like you should have had a breast lift with your implants. Your breasts appear slight elongated because of this. Your asymmetry would be improved with a breast lift as well. I suggest you either return to you surgeon or have consultations only with board-certified experienced plastic surgeons to review your options. I hope this helps.

Implant choice
Jul 16, 2021

This is a difficult question to answer without the benefit of a physical exam and actually taking measurements. You do have some of your own breast tissue so this needs to be taken into consideration when you choose an implant. I buy what I see, 650 mL would be very large on youAnd over the course of time with sag more. I think you’re wanting to go in the 450 to 500 mL range with a lift is certainly more reasonable than a larger implant. I hope this helps. Please make sure that you only s…

Is it possible to get the cleavage I want?

Implant malposition repair
Jun 21, 2021

There is no replacement for an in person exam but just as you point out, your implant pockets are too open on the sides and below. You would benefit from pockets repair. A mesh can be used to support the repair. It will also be important to clarify the profile and dimensions of your implants to make sure they aren’t too wide for your chest and breast measurements which can lead to malposition. You should see a board-certified plastic surgeon with experience in breast revision. I hope this h…

I have a wide BWD. What implant size would you recommend?

Base width and implant choice
Jun 4, 2021

There is no replacement for an in person exam with measurements. I highly doubt your base width is 16cm and it would be a mistake to choose an implant that wide. The measurements on the Vectra are placed outside boundaries of your breast tissue. You do have a little wider space between your breasts that may effect your cleavage. I would suggest you have another consultation with an experienced board-certified plastic surgeon to take measurements and suggests proper implants.

Capsular contracture? Should I wait longer or look into a revision?

Timing of breast revision
May 27, 2021

I would recommend you follow up with your plastic surgeon to discuss your options. It does appear that your left side is lower and more lateral although an in person exam is required. It has been long enough that the capsule has formed around your implant and could be tightened to support your implant. I hope this helps.

Should I get a lift with my explant?

Is a lift necessary with explant
May 10, 2021

Based upon your photos and your history it does not appear that you will need a breast lift. I tell my patients that you may decide to do so in the future but you are a young woman who has not had children and will most likely have a very acceptable result with implant removal only. I hope this helps.

Breast Augmentation and Possible Lift. Would it be possible to add implants to go to a DD

Do I need a lift
Apr 7, 2021

There is no replacement for an in person exam with measurements but based on the photos you provided, you would have the best results with a breast lift and implants. If you had implants alone, your breasts would sit much lower on your chest. I recommend you only see experienced board-certified plastic surgeons as you decide who will care for you. I hope this is helpful.

What, if anything, could possibly get me more the result I am looking for?

Breast revision
Mar 31, 2021

There is no replacement for an in person exam for the best advice but for the reasons you mention, I think you would benefit from a removal of your shaped implants and replacing them with smooth round implants after the pocket supporting the implants has been revised. It may be that the muscle has been incompletely released and not allowing your implants to settle into a lower, more natural position. I personally agree with your concerns about going over the muscle due to the thinness of…

Complications with breast lift using GalaFLex scaffolding

Mesh use in breast revision
Mar 31, 2021

Speaking from my clinical experience with Galaflex in over 50 breasts, aI have not had a patient return with breast pain attributable to the mesh. This mesh is designed to provide support and then it will reabsorb over an approximate 18 month period and should be replaced by your collagen over this resorption period. I’m sure there are board-certified plastic surgeons in your geographic area who have similar experiences with mesh use. I recommend you discuss your concerns with your plastic s…
