Breast Augmentation, 250cc silicone implants in Tucson, AZ*

This 71-year-old woman from Sierra Vista, Arizona, came to Rao Plastic Surgery in Tucson to discuss breast augmentation. She had been wanting to have the surgery done for a long time. She mentioned that she had been wearing A cup bras and was wanting to increase her breasts by one cup size. I discussed the augmentation process at length with her. I recommended smooth, round, silicone implants placed subglandular. I explained to her that placement of the implants subglandular, in front of the muscle, would allow for an easier recovery given her medical history and that she had sufficient soft tissue coverage for this placement. The woman tried on implant sizers placed in her bra and used them to gauge which implant size gave her the appearance she desired. She found the 250 cc implant sizers to be the most appealing and decided on this size for her augmentation. I performed the breast augmentation at a surgery center in Tucson, Arizona. Using the Keller Funnel, I placed 250 cc silicone Mentor MemoryGel moderate profile plus implants subglandular through an IMF incision. She had an unremarkable recovery. Now seven months out from her surgery, she is happy to have achieved her aesthetic goals.
