Patient Details
This is a 49 year old mom, who is 5’2″ and 129 pounds who had previous breast work done elsewhere three times. She says that her breasts are flatter, not youthful in appearance and a bit asymmetrical. She thinks larger breasts would look better.
On examination she has some breast asymmetries. They look somewhat “stuck on” because they are smaller than her chest wall and they are both mildly contracted (right more than the left). She says she has 325cc implants.
She is seen here after a breast revision. We increased her implant size to 450cc high profile silicone (beneath the muscle) and I adjusted the pockets and used her implant capsule (normal layer of scar tissue that forms around all breast implants) as a “strap” to help secure the right chest muscle into a more “normal” position (it was displaced from her previous surgery).
She is very pleased with her results. She says that at times her breasts look large but that they are also very perky. Having larger and perky breasts is unusual. This can only be achieved with the use of a breast implant and a supportive bra to keep them where they need to be. They are soft. They are shaped better. The larger implants fill her out more so they don’t look “stuck on”. You can make an argument that the larger implants actually look more “natural”.
