Breast Augmentation with High Profile Implants in Tucson, AZ*

This is a 26 year old woman who came to Rao Plastic Surgery in Tucson, Arizona interested in a breast augmentation. At the time she came to our office she was a B cup and was hoping to be a full C cup. She had not had any prior breast surgery and did not have any family history of breast cancer. During the consultation her exam did not reveal any masses or concerning findings. We took measurements of her breasts to best determine what size implants would work well for her. She used our Mentor Implant sizing system to see which implant size she preferred. She liked the 300 cc implants, and with her calculated base width, I also felt that size was a very good fit for her. Her surgery was performed at an outpatient surgery center in Tucson, Arizona. I used an inframammary incision to create a submuscular pocket behind her pectoralis major muscle. Once the pocket was created to place the implants in, I used a Keller Funnel to place 300 cc smooth round Moderate Profile Plus Mentor Implants. One hour after her surgery she was discharged home from the surgery center. A sterile dressing and then a sterile ACE wrap was placed around her chest at the time of surgery.Her recovery was uneventful and she was able to resume regular activity after six weeks. She is five months out from her breast augmentation. She is now the full C cup that she desired to be, and she loves the results of her breast augmentation surgery!
