Which is Best for Me, 265cc Moderate Vs 300cc High Profile Cohesive Silicone Gel?
Hi Doctors. I'm 5'3", 108 lbs and I have a petite frame. My Surgeon have narrowed down to 2 sizes for me to choose for my BA. 265cc moderate profile vs. 300cc high profile. My breast width is 11.2cm. I'm wondering if I can get your opinion on which would look best for me? I'd like a natural look, I don't want them to look fake (ie. balls). Also since the cc's between the 2 sizes aren't that much of a difference (only 35cc), would I be able to achieve a C cup with both these sizes? Thanks!

Breast implant "look"
The difference between these 2 implants is in the profile more than in the volume. The HP is meant to look fuller and less natural and the moderate to look truly natural.

Breast implant sizing
The more breast surgery I do the more I realize that there is no correlation between the size or model (profile) of implant used and resulting cup size. This may have to do with several factors including: the amount of breast volume the patient starts with, the shape of the patient's chest wall (concave or convex), the type and model of breast implant selected (saline/silicone and low/moderate/high profile), bra manufacturer variance in cup sizes, the degree...

Wait till you are having surgery
I tell my patients to bring a photograph from a magazine of the breast they wish to have. Give this to your doctor and let him match the picture during surgery. In this way, he is not limited to just two implant sizes. I guess wrong 50% of the time but never at the end of surgery. A picture is worth a words.

You can look natural either way!
The difference between those implants is 35cc which is about a tablespoon. This difference is hard to tell once they are under the muscle and breast. I always use high profile implants to get the most projection but either way, you will be able to achieve a natural look. Good luck!

High profile implants have more projection.
The difference in CCs is close. High Profile tend to have more projection than moderate plus, which are wider. You should see which looks best on you.

Unfortunately you are asking a question that requires an examination to really answer. The differences in the two implants you describe are subtle and it is not possible to give you an answer without actually seeing what you look like. I would advise you to try on both implants and see which you prefer. If you try them on you will be able to judge the subtle differences and your surgeon will be able to help guide you in the right direction.

Breast implant specifics
The specifics of your breast implant surgery must be determined by your surgeon and you in consultation. Anything outside of that isn't very helpful. The smaller your implant the more natural it will look since you are very very small framed. If natural is what you want and no "ball" look is what you are looking for, the larger you go, the closer you'll be to just that.

Implant choices
Without an exam it is difficult to say what would be best for you. Your are right the cc difference is not much.

Breast implant
Best person to answer your question is your surgeon as he/ she has examined you and knows the anatomy of the breasts and underlying chest wall. The final outcome will depend upon your existing shape of breast, skin and breast thickness, elasticity of the skin, positioning of implant and finally the type of implant. As Mr Richard said the high profile will look fuller and probably more projecting, where as moderate profile will give a more natural look withou much projection.
