High profile implants and "natural looking breasts"

J. Vicente P. Poblete, MD answers: Will high profile implants give "natural-looking" breasts?

I am 5'4" 125lbs, 31" ribcage, 34C (wanting atleast a DD) and my breast measures 13cm wide. I told my PS I wanted large, very nice looking (not high and ball-looking) breasts. He told me he will use a smooth, round, high profile, 500cc silicone implant and it will look "very nice" with a "nice downward slope". Everywhere on the internet says that high profiles don't give a really nice natural look, and that moderate profiles do. Will high profiles give me large, full, and natural-looking breasts with nice cleavage?

I usually reserve high profile implants for patients with at least moderate skin laxity and those who want more projection. Of course, a determining factor also would be the base width or diameter  of the breasts. Starting at a 34c and at 5'4, 125 lbs, one should ask - would it look natural to have a DD brassierre cup size?

Another note on cup sizes: different brassiere manufacturers have a different measure for their cup sizes--just something to think about when you evaluate your augmentation results purely on your 'postop cup size'.
