^That is a lot of hypothesizing, much of it similar to my own. We know that she still does apply a skin cream twice a day according to a recent OF video; she once mentioned it was a rather expensive imported one, but caring for her breasts was of the utmost importance. I have to admit, the skin is essentially flawless.
At one time, I believe I had read that she said her implants were "dual layered shells," however when challenged, I could not cite the reference. As others have pointed out, so many references have been changed or deleted over the years, which may well be the case because before reading that, I never knew dual layers existed, ignoring that Beshine's were custom designed and made. As much care that went into her planning, dual layers only makes sense, just in case one fails. As you hypothesized, my early thoughts on dual layers would have separate ports for filling, but that is not the traditional design and though Beshine has stated her port (singular) is under her arm, I have come to accept it is a safety layer.
I agree, the scar under each breast is far larger than I have even seen on women with implants, which IMHO, is indicative of how enormous the shells are. The lattice used in the creation of internal bras is pigskin, grafted to the underside (internal) of the breast, over the incision, serving to strengthen and using braided sutures, forming a hammock to hold the implant/breast from ever going below a certain level. So while the lattice can be inserted through a small incision, it has nothing to do with the size of her scars but strengthens the skin. For decades, it has been used for problematic hernia repairs to prevent ruptures from occurring again; remarkably strong tissue that our body accepts. I am not of the opinion that her implants, though capable, are stretched beyond designed capacity, but that she is only reaching that the point and may still have a few thousand left to go to fully round out the breast shape; it is getting close IMHO; her boobs have never looked so round since her old expanders were replaced. As I may have stated previously, with the internal bra serving as a sling, there is likely a bit more width than height when standing, secondary to gravity, which makes photos depicting a more accurate size ones that show her breast width, not a profile.
If you look at nearly any photo, you will see a skin elevation medial of the right breast leading to her 1st rib or collar bone. In videos, you can watch the cause move under her skin when she changes positions. This has to be the braided suture line that supports the medial portion of her right internal bra; there is also a lateral one extending from the superior sideboob to the shoulder, but it is only visible if she lifts her breasts substantially, something she has not done much after the 10k era.
When you look at the posts on this thread, people guessing as to her breast or implant capacity size, they were seemingly stunned, thinking someone could actually have had implants made that could hold 6k, then 8k, then 10k, but never really thinking of how Beshine's breasts were not round, as indicative of a filled implant, but irregular and elongated, indicative of vastly under-filled water balloons. Critics mentioned the shape while Beshine said it was because they were very under-filled, something she repeated the rest of her days on this thread and was still saying 7 years later before she gave up trying to please the naysayers, many of which said she never got another fill past 10k, simply because she never gave a volume. If you take a look at the gif Sol posted of her at 10k and compare her breast shape and size to today, even Stevie Wonder can see the difference. Right now, I think 22,500 is a good guess, but I'm of the opinion that her implants were designed with perhaps 25k in mind to achieve the traditional round look. That seems an incredible weight and watching her walk around, she seems to defy that weight, however, it is when she is bending to assume a different position, we see the effort, which is telling.
Evidently, Beshine still flies; she says she books two business seats as her boobs extend past the armrest of the seat next to her. Having the pull down table of the seat next to her allows her the use because her boobs prevent pulling down the table of the seat in front of her. She say the main problems are two fold; first, her boob width requires her to transverse the isle while turned somewhat sidewards, which unavoidably results with someone getting a heavy boob knocking against their head as she profusely apologizes, and the second, that the bathroom doors are too narrow for her to enter even sideways, so she has to do the one boob at a time method. And after dealing with trying to fit her boobs in the cramped room, there is not enough room for her to stand back sufficiently to bend over to reach the sink.
As far as the replacement fluid goes, I think it was to be done when she reaches a size she is comfortable with, not specifically the designed size of the implant. Perhaps she had the implants made capable of her furthest imaginable size so that should would never again be placed in the position of needing bigger implants. She could have reached that point within the past couple years as I cannot see a difference in that time, however, to be honest, I seriously doubt anyone could recognize an additional 1000cc at this point. To me, the most telling photos of size changes are those on her back, slightly tilted to one side, and taken at a distance where no distortion is obvious. That said, purely for size appreciation, the elevated camera at a distance with Beshine sitting at a 45 degree angle really demonstrates the size difference between the picture I am posting today versus this 2019 picture; the difference is profoundly noticeable.
Beshine has said that her fills post 2011 would be conservative to not stressing her skin, so my guess is that they may have been limited to perhaps yearly and maybe 1,000cc. If that was the case, it would put her close to what I have guessed today to be her current volume. I have no reason to question her honesty about the fluid replacement and to be honest, I cannot say that I remember her talking about expanding further for quite a number of years, yet the evidence suggests she has. So that is up in the air as far as I'm concerned until I hear different. Hard it or not, planning to or not, it is anyone's guess. I only hopes that her plan was valid, that the fluid to become a gel would be a bit lighter and not result in shrinkage, and that it can be accomplished without threat of compromise to the port tubing or breast shape. The wondering if about the viscosity and port connections is a extremely valid concern IMHO having worked with such tubing for decades; it has to be fairly thin.
Life with boobs her size has to be amazing, with one enormous boobie adventure after another. Most would not even contemplate living a life as such, however, Beshine seems to derive joy from all her massive boobie adventures, which makes for a very happy life even though it is filled with struggles that require doing things differently.
As always, I enjoy the good banter and respectful thoughts of others; that is what forums are meant.
With Halloween fast approaching, I present Little Miss Riding Hood as the way only Beshine can make her look.
