Implants have different profiles only partially because of how they look. The volume of your implant is based on your chest diameter and skin tone, thickness and obviously your own desire. So if you desire a larger volume than your chest diameter can tolerate, then a high profile implant is beneficial. You have to keep the diameter of your implant at a size that matches your body - otherwise you will find your implant outside of your breast and it will appear less "natural". If you have loose skin, then a high profile implant may also be beneficial to fill out your skin without going outside the parameters of your chest size. Having your surgeon take important measurements during your consultation is the best way to determine your breast implant volume and then you can decide whether or not you need a high profile or moderate profile implant. You should decide volume before deciding profile.
