Breast Augmentation Cases

Case 1

This woman was seeking fuller but natural breasts.

After spending time in consultation and trying on a range of implant sizes and shapes,  she and Dr Szalay agreed that  330cc medium profile round implants suited the width of her chest and hips. Medium profile round implants usually give the appearance of being natural, but still provide fullness.

Dr Szalay recommended that the implants be placed below muscle because that would allow the pectoralis muscle to drape over the implant, softening its upper pole into a more natural curve. Before surgery she was an A cup and afterwards a full C.

Usually it is necessary to take a week off work and driving in order to recover.

The post operative photos were taken 3 months following surgery.

Case 2

Breast 3 380cc Round High Profile Below Muscle

This woman was seeking a full look, whilst still being natural. She wished to have a noticeable difference that she could  see in her clothes but without having an “operated on” appearance.

Taking this into account and after trying on various implants, she and Dr Szalay felt that a 380cc high profile implant  suited the width of her shoulders and hips and provided the fullness she was seeking. Whilst this had enough natural tissue to place her implants above muscle, a below muscle placement was recommended as implants tend to hold their position better in that position.

An incision in the crease below the breast was recommended as this provides the most accurate position. Before surgery she was a B cup and afterwards  she was a D cup.

Case 3

Breast 4 470cc Brazilian Teardrop Extra High Profile Below Muscle

This patient was a very lightly built girl who was  seeking a natural result. Because she had minimal tissue it was important to carefully plan her procedure as she wished to avoid looking “fake”.

In this situation, tear drop implants can be ideal as they can provide a natural slope which blends in a patients upper chest with the upper part of the implant.

After trying on a range of teardrop implants, she and Dr Szalay felt that a 470cc extra-high profile implant suited the width of her shoulders, chest and hips. The implants were placed below muscle in order to ensure a smooth slope to the upper part of the implant. Before the procedure she was a AA cup and afterwards a D cup.

The post operative photos were taken 3 months following surgery.

Case 4

Breast 5 505cc Round High Profile Below Muscle

This girl was seeking  an enhanced, full look. She was hoping to accentuate the size and upper fullness of her breasts.

After going through a range of options during the consultation, she and Dr Szalay felt that a 505cc high profile round implant suited both her height and shoulder width. The 505 was a size which she could carry well , adding definite fullness to her figure without appearing too fake. Because her tissues were slim, a below muscle placement was recommended in order to smooth out the appearance of the implants, hold their position better and reduce the chance of rippling.

Rippling is a possible risk when a girl is lightly built and is more likely in these patients when an implant is placed above muscle. Prior to surgery she was a B cup and after surgery a D cup.

Usually 3 weeks off exercise is required following breast implant surgery.

The post operative photos were taken 3 months following surgery.

Case 5

This woman had breast-fed previously and as a result had lost the upper fullness of her breasts. She said her breasts felt empty and a bit deflated and she was hoping to restore the volume that she used to have, especially in the upper part.

In this situation, round, high profile implants can be helpful and after trying on a range of sizes, she settled on round, high profile 380cc implants. Dr Szalay recommended dual plane placement of the implant. This is when the  position of the muscle is carefully re-arranged during surgery so that the upper part of the implant is covered by muscle, providing a natural appearance.

The muscle is also moved away from the lower part of the implant during surgery and this allows the implant to fill out the lower, deflated part of the breast. The dual plane technique is ideal for women who have breast fed as it typically provides natural, upper fullness whilst still filling the lower part of the breast.
