Tags: female, Asian, pointy

Hi, Ive had my 1st consult & realised my surgeon has given me a conical implant.I am small framed-the only thing I have read is that they give a good result on small framed asian women. I REALLY HATE pointy boobs! So I want to ensure that I wont get them! I am getting unders, & rounds due to liking the fullness at the top of breast. I added a photo of what outcome I am after, I realise the profile shows a bit of pointyness but Im just showing the projection im after.

Projection in breast implants

There is a balance between cleavange and projection.  The more the implants project, the smalleir their base diameter is. You can talk with your surgeon about the pros and cons of the differing degrees of projection, and look at samples of each of the implants. Imnplants tend to amplify what the patient already has, so the choice in projection and base diameter is important.

Conical breast implants for augmentation surgery

There are anatomic implants and there are different pofile (projecting implants). No manufacturer makes a conical implant.

Implant choices

No specific implant is conical in shape. The pictures you show are the best possible result if you have very close to perfect symmetry to start.

Conical implants?

Mishin, By "conical" I am not sure whethert you are referring to high profile round  implants or anatomically shaped (tear drop implants).  I am not sure what types of implants are available down under, but here in the states we have only round implants of varying projections.  Be sure that you tell your surgeon that you don't want too much projection and he/she most likely has the option of choosing a lower profile implant.  Good luck! ... more

Breast Implants are Not Conical

There are no cone-shaped breast implants.  Implants come only in round and anatomical shapes.  I agree that the result which you posted is a good result and one with which you should be pleased.  This represents a "natural look" which is what I attempt to achieve in my patients.
