A: Prominent Chest or Constricted Breast?

By Kevin Brenner, MD - Los Angeles Plastic Surgeon

From your photograph, it appears that your chest prominence is less of a problem than is your breast deformity. Your right breast is somewhat underdeveloped and is a mild form of what is called "constricted breast deformity" or "tuberous breast deformity." In your case, correction of the... more

A: Implant type with a prominent chest

By Michael C. Edwards, MD - Las Vegas Plastic Surgeon

The choice of implant type to be used has multiple variable. It depends on how large you would like to be as well as the dimensions of your chest/breast and tissue tightness. You have a mild tuberous or constricted breast on the right which is, as you know, a little smaller. I would need to see you... more

A: Round Breast implants for asymmetry and chest prominence

By Peter A. Aldea, MD - Memphis Plastic Surgeon

You have a large asymmetry between your Left and right breasts. The right breast is a constricted / tuberous breast with very little breast tissue availability to cover any of the implants you mentioned.

A: implant style and size

By John P. Stratis, MD - Harrisburg Plastic Surgeon

You do have a size difference that can be improved with different size implants. You can use round implants and get quite an acceptable result. You do not need to use anatomic or shaped implants. You will need a little work on the right breast to open up the lower part. This is done internally at the... more

A: I recommend round breast implants.

By George J. Beraka, MD - Manhattan Plastic Surgeon

Hi! 1) I would definitely use round breast implants for you. I don't think your ribs are a big problem. 2) The sizes should not be decided in advance. You need disposable implant SIZERS to be put in your breasts during surgery, before opening the permanent implants. This way your... more

A: Implant choice

By Steven Wallach, MD - Manhattan Plastic Surgeon

I prefer round implants over anatomic. In additon, you have a mild tuberous deformity of the right breast which may need scoring and a suture placed all they way around the areola to improve its look.

A: Breast Implants and Sizing

By Farbod Esmailian, MD - Orange County Plastic Surgeon

The first thing that I see is that you have a tuberous breast deformity on the right side and this needs to be addressed during surgery. Second, anatomic implants that you are talking about are probably the formed silicone that is available in Europe. You should go with silicone implants and the anatomic... more

A: Choosing styles of breast implants

By Richard P. Rand, MD - Seattle Plastic Surgeon

As you know, you have a slightly challenging starting point for breast augmentation. A round implant of proper base dimension will give you the best result in my opinion. Then choose the profile to finalize the "look" you want.

A: Anatomical implants vs. round implants

By Dean Fardo, MD - Atlanta Plastic Surgeon

I think you have done a good job getting several opinions and are a good candidate for breast augmentation. You do have a constricted breast fold on the right but that should be correctable at surgery. I do not feel that you need anatomic implants and should do fine with round implants. However, look at both... more
