Before & Afters - Breast Implants (Augmentation)
This is a very slender, statuesque female who weighs about 100lbs. Her preoperative breast size was a 32A. She had never been pregnant and her breasts have always been the present size since adolescence. She wanted to be a C with moderate upper pole fullness. She tried numerous trial implants in the office and ultimately settled on a 300cc implant. This size nicely corresponded with the width of her breasts and ultimately 295cc implants were used in the operating room. This gave her nice projection and the upper pole fill that she desired. Her breasts remain sensate and the implants were soft and mobile. The creases are sharp and symmetry was excellent. She got a very nice result and looks about as you could ask for with implant surgery.

This is a young lady who is 5’6” tall and weighs 135lbs. She is a C cup. She had larger breasts at one time when she weighed more. She wished her breasts enlarged and wished significant upper pole fullness shy of being able to see the outline of the implant. In the pre-op evaluation we determined that it would take about 400cc implants to obtain that goal. She underwent an augmentation through and inframammary approach. I put 405cc gel implant in on the left side and 375cc on the right. She has a nice shape with upper pole fullness post operatively. Projection is good as is symmetry. The nipple areolar complexes have remained sensate. She measures for a D cup now. She has gotten a very nice result and she and her husband are quite pleased.

In the operating room, after the pockets were dissected, trials and sizers were placed to ascertain the appearance of the breasts prior to the permanent implant being placed.

This is a 25YO young female from the Florida area. She desired some cosmetic improvement of her breasts. She has some drooping of the nipple areola complex with asymmetry of the position of the breasts on the chest wall. Also she does not have any fullness in the lower pole of her breasts.
These type breasts are very difficult to do an augmentation and maintain good results. A surgeon must have years of experience in order to understood the pitfalls in trying to enlarge these type breasts.
Post operative views show significant improvement of these breasts. Now the breasts have a normal shape and the nipples are in good position relative to the breast tissue.

This is a pre and post-op pictures on a 42YO female here for consideration for a breast augmentation. She is 5’4” tall and weighs 110lbs. She is a 32A. She has had one pregnancy with no significant change in her breast size. Her breast tissue was firm and ropey but there was a good bit of stretch ability in the tissues. She tried the various sizes here in the office and liked something in the 400cc range. She wanted her breasts full with a lot of upper pole cleavage. Because of her very thin nature and the stretchiness of her skin, we reduced the implant size goal somewhat. She was carried to the operating room and underwent augmentation via inframammary approach. The high 300-low 400cc sizers were clearly too large and you could see the outline of the implant in the upper poles. We ultimately settled on 345cc on both sides. This gave her nicely sized breasts for her frame and moderate fullness in the upper poles. She has maintained sensation in the nipple areolar complexes. She is extremely pleased with the results of her surgery.

She wishes her breasts enlarged to a large C/small D with moderate upper pole fullness (cleavage). In the office on examination she tried the trials that we had available and wished for an implant in the 350cc range. This gave her the projection she wanted to see. We were not sure if that would provide the cleavage.

This is a very thin lady that desired breast enlargement. She had a fair amount of chest wall asymmetry and some minor breast asymmetry with her left breast being a little larger and the left crease and nipple a little lower and the entire left breast more laterally displaced off the chest wall. The biggest issue was the wide cleft between the breasts in addition to size. Other than limiting the amount of dissection for the implant, it is very difficult to amenably place implants and them stay there. Better options would be fat grafts. Nonetheless, she had a breast augmentation and got the better result with similar size implants. She has maintained nipple sensation. She has nicely shaped breasts with moderate upper pole fullness.
