Description

Rippling can become more noticeable in older saline implants, particularly after weight loss reduces the soft tissue covering them. This 40-year-old noticed breast rippling and wanted increased volume following a 30-pound weight loss over the prior year. She also wanted to exchange her 20-year-old, 225cc saline implants for new silicone gel. Bilateral implant exchange was performed through lower breast crease incisions, placing 345cc smooth-surface silicone gel implants. This improved her breast symmetry, and she was very pleased with the overall feel and volume of her new implants.
