Can I Increase My Breast Implant Size from 700ccs to 2000ccs?

Q: Dr. Eppley,  I want to go from 700cc to 2000 cc breast implants.

A:Trying to go from 775 CC breast implants to 2000 cc breast implants is neither possible, and even if it was, it is certainly not advised. That is a complication waiting to happen. On a more practical basis going from 775 cc  to approximately 1200 cc using silicone gel breast implants is more achievable in terms of tissue tolerances as well as minimizing the risk of complications. That is still a 62% increase in size. As a general rule in secondary implant enlargements a 50% increase is usually what the  tissues will tolerate (stretch) inside the existing pocket.
