“In order to achieve a natural-looking appearance,
it is best to choose a size that will complement the rest of the body
and shape.”
During a visit at my Inland Empire practice, your breasts and body will be examined in order to determine the most appropriate surgical plan to reach your desired outcome. Based on your particular anatomy, either saline or silicone gel filled breast implants will be used; saline implants are filled during the procedure, which allow me to use my professional judgment when doing so in order to achieve symmetrical results, while silicone implants are pre-filled and cannot be adjusted without complete removal and replacement. Patients may try out “tester implants,” which are inserted in the bra so that they may see potential results. Although actual results are not exactly the same, this gives the patient a better idea of what they may anticipate with their choice in implant size.
In addition, the amount of skin on the breasts greatly influences the breast implant size. If you have smaller breasts and minimal elasticity, you may not be eligible for a larger implant size. Should you opt for a large implant, there is a greater chance of rippling and implant visibility. For patients who have undergone breast cancer surgery (mastectomy), a spacer may be necessary prior to placing the permanent implant. However, the implant size is still dependant on the amount of skin and its elasticity.
Because no two patients are alike, the best way to determine the right breast implant size is by scheduling an appointment at my office. We can discuss your options and desired results in order to create a personalized surgical plan. Inland Empire and Riverside breast implants patients may also view before and after photos to see examples of previous patient results.
