I was recommended 300cc-325cc hp implants. I am 5 ft 5, 135lbs with a 29 in rib cage. I don't want to look husky by going too large and too wide up top although my hips are about 40 in. Would high profile work for me?
A high profile implant means that the manufacturer, has decreased the base diameter a little bit and give a small amount of projection. the numbers are real but are somewhat subtle. if you have wide hips and you want your implants to match, i would suggest that you go with a slightly larger implant that is NOT high profile, assuming that you do not have a very narrow chest.
There is not one correct answer but i personally prefer to almost always put the implants below the muscle since they are less palpable, they look more natural, you get a better mammogram and there are less likely to develop hard capsules.
I am 108 lbs, 31, no kids, w/ under the muscle salines 250 cc, for 10 years. They look great. What I want is: a more natural feel, look the same/better, better cleavage. The trade-offs of going to silicone concern me (rupture, health concerns, MRI's being needed). Thoughts?
I agree with what the other surgeons wrote in their answer. you are thin and there are definite advantages to silicone implants esp in thin patients. - less wrippling and more a natural feel. despite the FDA recommending mri every 2 yrs, i suspect almost everyone will ignore this suggestion. no one in europe or anywhere else in the world would do this. this is a result of fear about being sued by lawyers, rather than a fact based on hard science esp since we are now using largely cohesive gels. (this latter point may not be agreed upon by all plastic surgeons.)
