What is Extra Large Breast Augmentation?

Extra large breast augmentation refers to enlargement of the breast to a size larger than 1000 cc. Dr. Foster has performed many extra large breast augmentation surgeries at Reno and other locations, apart from his Tahoe Clinic. In fact, only a few people request a size that is larger than average. But the patient does not have to worry about the final results coming out larger than desired. The patients choose the exact size they want, and that is the size they will get.

The silicone gel breast implants in extra large sizes are available on special order from some manufacturers. Due to the extraordinary size of the implant, it also needs a longer surgical incision to place it in the breast. Furthermore, it is important to understand that extra large breast augmentation can be accompanied by extra body weight and extra gravitational force on the body. That may put excessive pressure on the breast tissue in some cases. Therefore, the surgeon should be able to ensure in advance that the tissue is able to support the extra large implant.

The post-operative care in the case of extra large breast augmentation is more intensive because of the larger size of the wounds. The patient needs to follow the instructions of the surgeon very cautiously in order to ensure there are no complications after the surgery. At the same time, the patient must be very sure of going ahead with an extra large breast augmentation procedure. It may require very serious and invasive surgery to reverse the process once the implant has been placed.
