Larger breast implants look more fake

Richard P. Rand, MD answers: Possible to get larger breast implants without fake look?

I was a 34A (if not less) before my Breast Augmentation 2 years ago. I got 320CC cohesive gel implants that brought me to a 34C (not full). I now wish I could have gone larger! I want to be a 34D (full). I am now considering the same implant with 550 CCs. Is that too big for me? I do not want the fake look, just a larger size of what I am now. I look very, very natural now and would not like to destroy that. Is it possible to go larger without obtaining a fake look? I am 5'4 and 135 lbs.

 If you stayed in a moderate profile and had the chest wall width to accomodate a bigger implant, you could do it and still look reasonably natural.  If you need to go up in profile to a moderate plus or high profile, you will be more unnatural looking by going larger.
