Mod+ Best for projection and diameter (even well above 1000cc)?

[txladybug]

Does anybody know how the various styles of implants change shape and diameter as they are drastically overfilled? I'll be going back and getting what I expect to be the 800cc Mentor moderate plus implants, overfilled as much as my Doctor will be able to go up front, with fillups to follow later, placed above the muscle (hopefully will help in appearance of size too).

Originally, I didn't think I wanted side-boob, but a side effect of having my boobs fall to my side more than I like, losing cleavage without the right bra, is that I discovered I do actually like the rounded side boob look a lot. When I have the implants overfilled to the levels I'm talking about (1600+ ccs), do you think the diameter is going to dramatically decrease? I pretty much have decided that I really like to look as far from natural as possible, and love the look where is looks like the boobs are bursting upwards with roundness. I want that, but not needing any help from a bra, and I want huge amounts of projection .

I still find that projection is the most important thing to me, and I would rather be able to have good cleavage when going braless, or at least without a bra that really tries hard to pull me together, if it meant I couldn't have the side boob.

Looking at the specs, it appears that at their maximum fill ratings, its around 3" more in diameter to go from the 400cc mod+ to the 800cc mod+. Of course, I've exceeded Mentor's specification, going to 500cc, and will definitely be exceeding it when I go back, so it's hard to say exactly what will happen based on the set of 4 numbers.

Before my first surgery, I thought I wanted HPs, but it appears to me that if I went with HPs, yes they start out with more projection, but in the end, would have far less diameter, so really probably don't make sense with the overfilling in mind. And the regular moderates aren't really wider, and start out with a lot less projection. So, if your surgeon uses Mentor, I guess most people going larger than 1000+ cc's end up with mod+?

Can anybody that has significantly overfilled their saline implants provide any insight as to how their size changed as they went larger, whether it be from the smaller size to the next, or if you actually went larger with the same size/style, just more overfill?

Thanks!

Hey there, I will be going 1000-1100cc's and I asked my doctor about this, hp or mod plus, and he said going that large he recommends going HP for me, i already have very close cleavage with some sideboob with my 600 hp..so i wouldent be able to go mod plus, i would get the uniboob thing if i did...i guess it depends on how much space you have on your chest, i thought i wanted the mod plus at first, but now i cant have them anyways, and i do like the look of hp's the are very unnatural looking, which i love as well...i hope this helps, good luck...

You say that the HPs are very unnatural looking, but my understanding was that the mod+ implants would more or less take on the same look as HPs as they are overfilled (and thus look as fake). Does that not jive with what you were told? I can't find the reference posts, but this has been what my operating assumption has been going off of, knowing that the HP 'look' that I see on girls here is what I like.

I think it may be a moot point for me, because I think I must have a large ribcage for my height (5'2") - I measure 32" around with no weight to lose up top anymore. I. I have never really thought about it before, especially being overweight, and not really being able to compare, but it seems other girls my height seem to be 30" or 28" on their signatures. I've been trying to figure out how to properly measure my BWD too, because seems to be more important in figuring it out since it really corresponds to the implant diameter. With my 400 mod+'s (o/f to 500), I have a very large gap. I do wear a 32" band bra, so I figured my BWD wouldn't be too large, my current implants should be around 12.3cm diameter. One would think that would be enough to at least get close (and I guess I can get close, if you count being able to push them together.)

It may have more to do with weight loss, and getting the larger implants will eat up the extra space, and keep them more centered. In the long term, being a little funny now is OK, because I think that it makes it much easier for me to go larger (meaning my pocket is larger). I however, in retrospect wonder if I shouldn't have done as much massaging. PS recommended massaging, but personally if they stayed up high on my chest, and didn't move when I lay down at night, or in a swimsuit w/o a bra, it would be fabulous!

I want to feel like I am 100% sure of things that correspond to my going large. It's easy for a surgeon to sometimes apply the normal routines to a patient wanting different results. For instance, I have read older threads about some surgeons not recommending massages post-op. They say this is to promote the pocket forming tighter, and keeping the implant tight and up front. To me, this sounds perfect, and would maximize cleavage, I assume. However, at the same time, this doesn't guarantee anything for every different woman!

i may be way out of my league here by responding to your post.your concerns seem that of the same as mine were. i have saline 800cc overfill 1000cc moderate. i can say this i wanted the look without the bra too. now i have it. when i lay down my boobs stay put they dont fall apart or look deflated so to speak witch was one of my concerns.most of all it was projection for me.i was 34D 34DD DEPENDING ON THE BRA. now im G TO H .full breasted i love it. i dont think you will have any problem with the moderate profile going into the 1600 cc you are wanting. my ps dr. tom pousti in san diego california understands the desire and look that woman want rather than just being in his daily routine . by the time we were just 1/2 way through the consult i was 100% sure he could give me the look i wanted.

Hello Catherine123, I too am a very satisfied patient of Dr. Tom Pousti. He is the best, I love that you can say what you want & he does just that! He doesn’t double talk you, he is up front & honest! Love the staff too very friendly girls….

BTW, You look amazing!

How does the risk of having uniboob depend on the implant volume?
If I get expanders and fill them slowly, will it help?

You only get uniboob if your PS cut the pockets to close to each other so they almost touch. With a weakened space between the pockets the flesh can easily tear from the breastbone when he put the implants in. If he leaves sufficient space between the pockets you won't have such a problem. Just take a look at PBD in your pics. She has more than enough space between the pockets. Even with those large implants the flesh didn't tear from her breastbone because the pockets were created properly.

Uniboob is mostly a result of a mistake the PS made when he created the pockets. Thats why it is so important to go to a skilled big boob surgeon who knows what he is doing.

With expanders the expansion is to the front and the side and not to the breastbone and you won't get uniboob. Expanders is designed to stretch your boobie flesh and not to tear it.

How is your plans coming along?

he is just wonderfull......a friend of mine who flew out with me to have my surgery.we are flying back out in january to get hers she currently has small 350 cc saline. shes getting the same as i have 800cc moderate+160 overfilled to 1000cc. i was amazed at how reasuring he was with her exspecialy since she is so small she also has a big gap......her ps was dr. garcia in oklahoma city......i have not been hearing good things about him and to think i almost went to him for my first b/a. yikes.....i have found a good doctor and a very understanding and accomadating person in dr.tom pousti. i have pics up now you can look at in my public album...

[catherine123]

here what both my P/S told me about uniboob...DR.Tim love in oklahoma city oklama.says 98% of the time it happens when a ps trys to create cleavage while he is cutting the pocket out for the implant he cuts into the parrelle muscle that lay between the breast and is attached to the sturnem.when cut it allows the two breast to come together , because the muscle is cut away from the sturnem there is nothing to keep the breast apart. Dr.Tom pousti in san diego California says the same thing.....p/s not knowing what they are doing...i believe this is one of the reasons he preferes to do areola incision on larger implants.....anyway he does have alot of information on his site about uniboob if anyone is interested

Thank you very much for the help, it was very encouraging.

Concerning my plans: nothing new happens. I'm still saving money for the first surgery.
Thank you for asking, it's nice :-)
