Removal & Replacement of Implants Patient 31**

About This Patient

This 49 year old had undergone a partial submuscular saline breast augmentation 10 years ago. She came to Dr. Parker requesting the conversion to larger silicone implants with more upper pole fullness and cleavage. She also verbalized concern about the visible and palpable edges of her implants. The patient is 6′ and weighs 155 pounds. During her Sizing Sessions, it was determined the patient had 360 cc saline implants in place. She requested these be replaced with 550 cc silicone implants. At surgery, Dr. Parker removed her existing implants, reduced the lateral size of the existing pockets with a lateral capsulorrhaphy and inserted 550 cc silicone implants. The patient is very happy with her enhanced cleavage as well as the size, shape and feel of her new implants.
