Draining Saline to Achieve "Teardrop Shape" Breasts?

I desire large implants w a teardrop look. I'm a B aiming for at least a DD. I have rib cage of 26.5"a chestof 30" around 5'1'' 105lbs. Asurgeon I contactedsuggested I get 900cc saline then drain 200cc after 6 mo in order to achieve that look. I have never heard of this. I know the size I'm asking for is Huge but he did say that"There is a limit as to how much the skin & muscle will stretch at first surgery. I won't know until I do it if 700 cc will be a safe amount for you." Is this advisable?
