Mentor or Natrelle High Profile for a Thin Girl with Very Small Frame?

I have heard that Natrelle is a better choice for a girl like me with very small frame, that Mentor are bigger implants. Is this true, or Mentor would also be a good choice for me? I´m 5.12ft and weight 94.6 lbs. I am a 32 B cup and would like a full B cup.

Both are quality implants. In general, the Allergan implants have more projection for comparable volume and profile. They also have a full profile implant for those women who desire a lot of "push up look". You have to be careful that they do not look too round or missile like, however, unless that is the look you are going for! Discuss you size and shape desires with your surgeon as they relate to your chest/breast dimensions.

Do I Have too Much Breast Tissue to Achieve the Results I Desire with Implants? (photo)

So my preop is soon. So I know during my preoop we go over and figure out sizing. So I was told I have a good enough amount of breast tissue that I could do silicone or saline. I know I want to do silicone but do I have to much breast tissue to get the look im desiring? My chest may be too wide for HP so is it possible to get my desired look? if so what should I do? Im not looking for a desired size letter size (I understand thats not how it works) so anything advice helps. Thank you! :)

The comment about having a good amount of breast tissue only refers to the ability to cover the implants so no one is likely to be able to tell you have them, i.e. - more natural. There is no doubt the gels do that, but for other reasons you may be able to use saline ( cost, concern about gel, etc.). The decision about which profile to use is determined by your chest/breast dimensions and how that relates to your desired volume and degree of upper pole fullness, i.e. - push up look. Your surgeon should discuss these aspects with you so as to have the best chance of getting the result you desire.

Mommy Makeover for Tired Eyes?

The skin around my eyes has changed ever since I had my child, can you recommend a specific mommy makeover, and its benefits in terms of reversing stress and sleep loss skin blemishes?

Without photos, it is difficult to tell. There are a number of things that may give a "tired look", so accurately identifying them is crucial to selecting the appropriate intervention.
