Ok doctors, I like the Breast implants I see on reality TV stars. I want larger Saline implants under the muscle.

I am 5'7" 120lbs, very slim and tall. Should I go with high profile or moderate/small and if I want to be on the larger/fuller size, what does everyone recommend? Thank you.

Don't over think the details of Breast Implants- Your Surgeon will Make the Difference

Hi there- One of the things I find most interesting is the amount of misinformation the average patient must sift through when researching breast augmentation surgery. In particular, I think that many patients become overwhelmed with implant choices and the abundance of information about these options available on the Web. This is complicated once they contact a surgeon or two for information about the implants, and which is most likely to give them the result they desire. Somewhere... more

Breast implants

If you want to be on the larger size on a relatively narrow frame, then the High profile implants are probably a good choice. As for size, you would need to be evaluated.

Choosing Celebrity-Like Breasts

There is are several very widely held misconceptions regarding Breast implants and breast augmentation which your question truly highlights: 1. That by throwing our your height, weight and cup size but without an examination and consideration of much more important factors, a Plastic surgeon or anyone masquerading as one (GYN, ER doc, Family practice doc etc) can reach into his breast implant closet and pull out the ideal implant to match the breast you want. 2. That breast implants are... more

How to pick breast implant sizes.

Hi.1) This is the most common type of question on RealSelf. 2) It is the surgeon's job to pick the right breast implants, not the patient's. Implant selection is really pretty technical. 3) Make sure your surgeon REALLY understands the look you want. Mentioning a cup size is not enough. Show your surgeon pictures of breasts you like. 4) Then your surgeon has to tell you if your chosen look is realistic for your anatomy. The most common mistake is to go too big. 5) I recommend that the... more

Breast implant size should be discussed with your plastic surgeon

When evaluating my patients for breast augmentation surgery, I take several factors into account. These include: breast anatomy, the diameter of a patients breasts, their breast skin elasticity and the cup size they are requesting. Taking all of these variables into account, I then discuss with my patient, the size, style (high, medium profile), type (saline vs silicone) and location (above or below the muscle) I feel would best give them the look they are trying to achieve. I will even... more

Choosing the right breast implant: high profile and moderate

There is no simple answer to your question.The video below briefly reviews some of the many considerations in discussing breast implant issues. However, if you are asking for my first impression, your description sounds as if you would prefer the high profile because these are the implants that will be most noticeable and produce the least amount of rippling in your body type (thin and tall with minimal soft tissue coverage. see video

Breast implant sizing by a board certified surgeon

If you're going for the reality TV look, you are looking at a larger diameter, larger volume implant. If you are thin, then sub muscular placement would be important. If you're interested in a rounded upper and medial breast pole (a 'fake' look) then you should be sized by a board certified plastic surgeon to ensure that your tissues can handle the additional stress of a larger implant. We know from experience that implants that don't 'fit' a patient's tissues will not last as long as more... more

Pictures and physical examination before size recommendation

There are a lot of information that can be obtained during the breast augmentation consultation that helps your surgeon to reccommend the best size for you. The body structure, skin quality, amount of brest tissue, nipple position,inframmary fold postion and patients desire, all help us to chose the best size.

Breast implants for thin patients

I'm going to guess that you're referring to Heidi Montag's breasts, which are very full and have overstretched her tissues. If you want this look, I would recommend high profile implants beneath the muscle. However, the trade-off of such large implants is that your skin will not be able to hold them up over time, and you will experience some sagging sooner or later. This may require a revision of the breast augmentation, and may require additional scars on the breasts. I recommend... more
