Breast Implants and Cleavage

Hello, It's all true what the others are telling you about the importance of an experienced breast implant surgeon in determining the best possible outcome, but that is not really answering your question. Additionally, you have not provided photographs so I can't say exactly what your outcome might be given the right surgeon using the right implant. I can say though that if you are thin, your breast tissue is thin and far apart, and your sternum (breast bone) is... more

Breast augmentation surgery results

The most important decision you make is who performs your surgery. The experience and skill level of your surgeon will determine the outcome of your surgery, including specifics such as the appearance of the cleavage area. Some important factors include the breast implant pocket dissection and the size / model of implant used. It is very important to communicate your size and cleavage goals with your surgeon. In my practice, the use of photographs of “goal”... more

Breast implants can enhance cleavage

I would echo the other physicians' comments. It is very important who performs your surgery and your selection of a plastic surgeon will be the most important factor. When considering someones aesthetics goals I am always assessing what implant and type of surgical dissection are necessary to achieve the desired result. One thing that has helped us has been the advent of digital imagining and breast models. Using the Axis Three device a picture of your chest can... more

Cleavage with breast implants

It is not so much the type of implant that determines the cleavage but rather the technique performed by the surgeon. Bringing the breasts closer together to achieve cleavage depends on the expertise of the surgeon to dissect the pocket appropriately and choose the right size implant to fill the pocket. A good detailed discussion with your Plastic Surgeon is necessary to achieve your goals. Good luck!

Breast Implants to get more cleavage

This is definitely an important issue for many women seeking breast augmentation. However when there is a wide gap between the breasts, achieving cleavage can be more difficult. There are several reasons for this. First a larger implant is needed to increase the width of the implant so that it fills the cleavage area better. However the size needed may be larger than a patient wants. Another problem is that there is usually very little breast tissue in this area - particularly in women with... more

Cleavage!!!

This is one of the most common questions that I am asked: "Can I have a close cleavage?" The answer is-IT DEPENDS. It depends on the "footplate" of your starting point breast. After looking at over 10,000 breast I can tell you that I have never seen the same breast. I can also tell you that the starting cleavage of every one varies. Some people are blessed with having close breasts but some are not and they have a wide gap. One cannot under any circumstance create a close... more

Cleavage and breast augmentation

This question also has a fairly straightforward answer and Dr. Minniti has most of it. It depends on what you mean by cleavage. If you are referring to the steepness or depth along the medial edge of the breast then the higher the implant profile the deeper the cleavage. If by cleavage you mean how far apart the medial edges of your breasts are and you want them different then you are likely to be disappointed because properly positioned and sized implants can only fill to the true edge of... more

Cleavage after breast augmentation

If the breasts are far apart pre-operatively, nipples directed off to the sides, ribs canted laterally, then the best approach for cleavage after augmentation, in my opinion, is as follows: 1. Use an implant with as broad a base width as your anatomy will allow, 2. Distribute existing breast tissue as smoothly over the implants as possible, 3. Medialize the implants as much as possible (but not excessively), 4. Post surgical bra to keep them medialized for 2 months or so, 5. Use as... more

Breast Implants Position

The horizontal position of breast implants requires a great deal of attention, both in pre-operative planning and in the operating room. Excessive lateral dissection of the implant pockets will result in augmented breasts with an excessively wide space between them in the cleavage area, and the appearance that the breasts are abnormally far apart. The result may (or may not) be tolerable in the upright standing or sitting position, but when the patient lays down in supine position (on... more

CLEAVAGE

Without photos of your breasts it is difficult to advise you. Generally speaking placing implants subfascial or subglandular will acheive better cleavage. Using a moderate profile implant offers a wider based implant can also help. Consult with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon to discuss your options.
