    Read about breast implants:
    A breast implant is a prosthesis used to change the size, shape, and contour of a woman's breast. In reconstructive plastic surgery, breast implants can be placed to restore a natural looking breast mound for post-mastectomy breast reconstruction patients or to correct congenital defects and deformities of the chest wall. They are also used cosmetically to enhance or enlarge the appearance of the breast through breast augmentation surgery.

I like a high look. Without a droopy saggy look in a few years. What do you think I should get? & which ones are lighter so going so big won’t be taken down by gravity right away? Also do you recommend over or under the muscle to avoid saggy breast? Basically which implants stay higher longer? Thank you!

    I'm getting 560cc moderate silicone implants placed under the muscle in a couple of weeks. My Dr. suggested I go with a moderate plus extra because it's more cohesive and it fills the upper part of the breasts more (at an extra cost of course) I asked my Dr. if I could go with 610ccs but I don't want to be a DD I prefer a D to a full D. (I'm currently a 34B) He said, after looking at the 3D Vectra machine, that he could do 610ccs and my breast frame can tolerate it but he said 560ccs will look much better for my body. Will I notice a difference between 610cc and 560cc?

Please check the FDA website or Breast Implant Illness. He also forgot to mention that either one is made of silicone shell and may cause autoimmune disease like Lupus, fibromyalgia, etc.

    So I am a transgender who had their breasts done about 10 years ago. Before, I had my testicular sac distended and expanded to prep for saline implants in 2004 and had 2 60cc implants added to my testicular sac after I had both testicles removed. Shortly after I had silicone breast implantsdone. Since both are due for an update, I'm thinking of going silicone all the way, but it's an issue for the sac implants. I've heard of intraanal testicular implantation. An incision in made in the anus that leads directly unto the sac, and can be stretched( and my anus is already very large) to allow silicone implants. I'd like yo to get to 90cc if possible. Is this something your officer offers?

      Dont do texture. Textured now has been recognized to cause a higher amount of infections than smooth implants. Just go to the FDA website and read their full article on implants in general. Also to answer your question textured implants aren't smooth on the outside and are especially popular with the teardrop-shaped implants because of the texture on the shell of the implant it has a less likely chance if shifting and moving from the original pocket the surgeon placed it.

      Ruptures are likely related to a manufacturing defect in the shell of an implant. The implants are very strong and they will not pop even if you drive over them with a car. The implants are warrantied and the companies will offer new implants (at no cost) if there is a rupture.
