    Default surgeon only does anatomical (tear drop) implants

    I just spoke to the patient advisor of the
    plastic surgeon who is performing my rhinoplasty to see if I could combine a BA and rhinoplasty in the same procedure which she said was fine.
    But to my disappointment he only does anatomical or tear drop implants. I dont want those kind, I prefer the round ones.

    Aren't anatomical useless if you want to create cleavage and fullness?

    It seems most surgeons have a preference of one sort or another. Some surgeons stick to a certain incision, for example. Its a little unusual to me that he'd only want to use one type of implant, think of all the money hes missing out on! But then there are several docs who operate their practices by thier own personal preference of what THEY think looks good. Like how certain docs are obsessed with a "natural looking" (smaller sized) boob jobs, and another doc will encourage patients to go as big as possible.

    I thought the tear drops in the end really made no difference compared to the round ones because the shape on top just fills out your top a tiny bit more. Ive seen both and can honestly say I cant tell one from the other...

    my dr said the teardrop drops TOO much and instead of having a slight hang to make them look natural...you end up with th apple in a sweatsock look over time.
    I got rounds....they settled to a teardrop shape and look perfectly natural

    ^^ If it DOES hang more maybe thats what I need.. mine look bolted to my chest... they have no hang whatsoever - I HATE it... I was thinking going bigger would help this problem but maybe I just need a different type of implant - Im getting mine redone in Oct/Nov...

    Im guessing your original shape/size would have something to do with the outcome because the ones I had seen looked no different but maybe for me in particular this would be good?.... hmmm....

    Perhaps the bolted look happens when there wasn't much breast tissue to begin with. I think the high-profiles also contribute to a bolt, since they stay so full on top. Any implant with a low to meduim profile, and not too overfilled, seems to turn out anatomically sloped thanks to gravity.

    I think the "bolted" look too has somethng to do with your aftercare. I wore nothing(no bandages after the first few days, no bra..nothing to strap them down) and massaged for months to keep the pocket open so they had room to drop. If you dont and basically hold them in the "bolted" position until the pocket heals..you'll get more of the ultra round, fake look

    I personally like the high-profile rounds (that's what I have). However, with any type of implant aftercare is very important in how they look.

    I hear there is a MUCH higher risk that if the implant 'shifts' at ALL, you'll end up with a sideways or even upside down drop! D: Horror...

    I massaged and massaged and stuff and they dropped but I think more weight would have helped them drop further... They fell and the pocket isnt tight.. I can move them and all. I just have no overlap. Theyre just there. People love them - I dont like them... I have pics of them in the gallery... I wish I had a before photo but I already packed my other harddrive... darn...

    "Recent detailed studies in Dallas have shown that after the first two weeks the teardrop shape makes little difference in appearance, costs more, and may have serious problems if they are rotated. "

    I read that the negatives of the tear drop outweigh the positives and that the round ones look better over time.

    It was his patient adviser who told me he only does tear drop, im hoping she is wrong coz I would love to get both procedures done under the one anaesthetic.

    Since the anesthesia is the most dangerous part, it really, really makes sense to only go through it once. It might be a good idea to find one surgeon who can do both. It'll save $$$ to not have to pay hospital and meds twice, not to mention recovery times for 2 separate surgeries is just more pain and time off work.
    Are you dead set on this doc for your rhino?

    yeh he is the best in melbourne for rhino, i have done a lot of research.

    i am not 100% about whether i want BA anyway, i am pretty sure i want it but not 100% decided.

    I have an appointment with him again on aug 14th to discuss it so i will find out for sure whether he only uses tear drop or whether he uses both..

    im pretty sure when i was in his office for my rhino consult i saw many diff types in his cabinet.

    I hate going under anaesthetic its so scary and u are 100% right its best to do it only once if that is possible.

    after doing much research for my breast augmentation i read the anatomicals done under the muscle will look the same as a round implant unders. i dont think going over muscle w/ those would look right..

    Other than my current string implants, my favorite set of implants were 850cc rated McGhan 133FV textured anatomicals (overfilled to 1100cc) placed over the muscle. The textured surface pretty much guarantees that they won't rotate, as long as you're willing to take it easy for 6 weeks post-op so that the textured surface can anchor itself to your body tissue. Most instances of anatomical implant rotation problems have occurred when smooth surface implants were used and/or when girls went back to the pole too soon, or when placed under the muscle with asymmetrical muscle coverage (which pushes unequally on different areas of the implant).

    IMHO the anatomical shape is sexier. As a dancer, the anatomical shape is not very common thus a bit more 'salable' too.

    I wonder whether he will recommend under or over the muscle for me.
    I have b cup breasts that used to be a c cup when i first started taking the pill.

    Does it make a diff which ones that you have if you are extremely physically active?
    I exercise a lot - lift weights, acrobatic pole dancing and i dont want implants stopping me from being able to do this level of activity.

    I know you want to get it all done at once and anaesthesia being a bitch and stuff but....

    99% of surgeons are known for their 'speciality' and getting the same doctor that's AMAZING at nose jobs to do MEH at your boobs just because it's convenient might not be the best option. Wouldn't you rather have the best of both? Afterall, this is your body and if he fucks up you can't go back.

    that's a really good point.

    He comes up in all the searches for breast implants when I google and that is his other speciality so im thinking he must do round coz they are more popular.

    I wish someone on here knew of a great BA surgeon in melbourne (hint hint)
