Yep, TCI do dual plane, and it can help to reduce the need of a lift ,by placing the implant lower down it pushes the nipple up the implant slightly, thats my understanding of it anyway.
I have 420cc XHP dual plane 2 with tci, i was borderline with deflated skin, and they did the xhp to fill that. My nipple has lifted but not a lot and the surgeon thinks that as they drop it could lift another half cm or so, having said that mine are way better than before and I'm glad i went through with it. The nipple still sits a bit low and mine are dropping at different speeds but i never wanted nipple in the air porn star boobs anyway.
I'll probably need them lifted anyway in the future, but for now are more than happy with my results.
I think if I have any advice
Consider shape
Placement
Size
That was my main points
I new if I went fully under with a round Id be unhappy as the teardrop helps lift the nipple plus having it dual plan helps with this also that way the inplant doesn't sit so hight
And i personally new I wouldn't get the result I wanted without going atleast a 450 cc
But yes not everyone is happy with end results especially if a high round fake look is what you are looking for
Consider all inplant types and brands
And also Thailand
I know TCI is cheap but for me what they offered I just new I wouldn't get the look I wanted to me I wanted my nipples to sit the highest they possibly could
But with Thailand please speak to some one like dee envy as overseas is a mine field
I was border line needing a lift and got 520 xhp without a lift and am happy with the results, I could have gone a size bigger though I think but everyone says that lol
Hey Hun, I was told that I was borderline needing a lift aswell but chose to forgo a lift and just get a larger implant. I was a 10B and got 420cc's and I'm 163cm and 50kilos. I don't think that size implant would be to large at all and I think with your stats you could definantly carry it off. If someone has told me before my BA that I was going to get 420's I wouldn't have believe them as that sounds big for my frame(well to me anyways) but they really are the perfect size and so easy to hide if I want to. I have no regrets with forgoing the lift, as I haven't had kids yet I figured I would rather wait and get a lift once I have had kids and need a revision and I'm extremely happy with the way mine turned out. As HarlowAudrey said, the nipple will sit a little lower but really unless your a topless model/barmaid or stripper the only people who would really see your nipples are you and our partner and if your not bothered abut your nipple sitting a little lower then it doesn't matter.
I was recommended for best results to get a lift but for my own reasons I'm just getting BA. I was told I will still get decent results (the perky boobs i want) but my nipple will still be low. I'm getting XHP teardrop which will bring the nipple up a fraction, either going with 315 or 360cc.
I wouldn't go over the muscle. I have dual plane which is half under, half over but the over part is still under some muscle (its hard to explain).
You probably would need dual plane so the implant fills out that skin (like mine). My surgeon only used this position because it gave the best results. If you do go dual plane and are worried about them staying but I would definitely recommend furries as they dont move down with gravity. Take a lool at my pics, ive accepted you FR :-)
I have decided to share my experience because I found during my waiting pre op that all the little things helped. I'll try and update with changes daily and I have already started posting pics so will also continue this daily too
Firstly a little about me. I'm 25 and a single mum with 2 kids (2 and 5) only breast fed for 2 weeks with my first and not at all with my second. After my second I decided I'd been lazy and wanted to get back to exercise, this is when I lost 16kg and obviously most of that was from my boobs lol I've just finished my cert 3 and 4 to become a personal trainer and had been considering a BA ever since the weight lose 1 1/2 years ago and thought timing wise it would be better to do it before started to work as a PT so I wouldn't have a take such a long time off in between. I booked it 9 weeks in advance and made all the arrangements as I live 6-7 hours drive from sydney (I flew though). I knew I wanted and needed to go a larger size given the amount my boobs were deflated. Prior to my first baby I was a 12D then after was a 12DD and after my second went back to a 12D then with weight lose 10B-C (but always wore amazing padded and push-up bras to make them look bigger). Around pregnancies I had gotten up to an E and this is what I was aiming for. I didn't want a lift as I didn't like the scarring and recovery time ect but Dr Tang said because my nipples were above my fold and pointing up I'd be ok with a larger implant.
I had my consult which was informative but at the same time I had spent many hours on here so was well prepared. Dr Tang said the largest he could go with me for my band width was 520cc and I was happy with that. We decided extra high profile, under the muscle.
I was booked for my surgery with Dr Tang at the cosmetic institute yesterday and had to be there at 8.30, I arrived at 8.20 and after a couple of quick question my friend left and they took me through to the waiting room. I was instructed to get dressed and wait for everyone to come and see me. Lisa, the nurse, was in first to do blood pressure, temp and explained how the day would go. Next was the anaesthesiologist who asked about previous anaesthetics and a few other question, then Dr Tang came in to take photos, draw on me and iron out any final questions, then I was taken through. It probably would have been about 9.30ish.
They put me on the operating table, there were 5 people in the room and everything happened fairly quickly with each person doing something. Before I knew it I was awake in recovery. I immediately burst into tears for no reason what so ever (and was very sensitive with emotions for the next few hours). Once I had calmed down a little they got me out of bed, sitting up and gave me a lollie pop, this is when my friend came in and bits n pieces are a little hazy.
They called us a taxi, we are staying at Novotel Paramatta so not far, they have a silver service that comes instantly and they usually charge $20 but we only had to pay $15 and we were back at the hotel by 1.15pm.
When we got back to the hotel I was feeling very tired so took some panadine forte and endone and positioned myself with pillows sitting up in bed and managed to get about 3 hours sleep before my back pain from the position became unbearable. I ate an apple at this stage which gave me instant indigestion. And have been taking coloxyl with senna every time I eat something to try and prevent the inevitable.
At this point it had been long enough for me to take more pain meds so given the pain from my back and a little tightness in the chest I took some panadine forte. I stayed awake the rest of day mostly on a computer like chair with my feet up on the bed, this is how I felt most comfortable.
I did have dinner (pasta) as I felt a little hungry but regret this now as I've woken a couple of times nauseous and vomited. Before bed I put an ice pack on the top of my breasts and cleavage as this is where Dr Tang said I'd get swelling, it isn't swollen yet but thought I'd try and prevent it a little. I took a sleeping tablet, panadine forte and endone. After reading another thread I decided to try sleeping lying down with a few pillows propping me up underneath and around me, this was so much more comfortable. I woke up twice, 1.30 and 4.30 nauseous and quickly went to the toilet to vomit It has now been 7-8 hours since any pain meds and I'm feeling ok pain wise. Unfortunately very awake for 5am but figure ill nap tomorrow anyway.
Sorry about the length but I read a few long surgery experiences and loved the detail so thought id do the same. please feel free to ask any questions, I will post updates on this thread so things don't get too messy in other places. Oh and anyone that is not already feel free to send a FR, if you could send a message with it that would be great xx
