This 28-year-old woman underwent a breast augmentation and liposuction of the abdomen, flanks, and inner thighs. A 450 cc implant was used for the right breast (Mentor Moderate Plus Profile smooth, round silicone gel implants, Santa Barbara, Calif.). One year later, she had an abdominoplasty. She is seen before (A), 3 months after (B), 1 year after (C), 3 years after (D), 7 years after (E), and 10 years after her breast augmentation (F). The nipple level is unchanged. The lower pole level dropped 1.3 cm 3 months after surgery. Its position remains unchanged 10 years later. Breast projection and upper pole projection are preserved. The upper pole contour is convex.
