Need FACTS About Moderate Plus and High Profile Implants?
PS told me that mod-plus and high-profile implants.. if they ever turn or move that they will distort the appearance of the breast. Said that due to them having a front, back and sides they have to stay put. Where as just the standard moderate profile stays the same shape and size no matter if it ever moves or turns. Is this true?

High profile and moderate plus profile implants

High profile implant facts
There is a front and back to both high profile and moderate profile breast implants, and yes, the rounder the implant the more likely it is to 'turn'. Just how often this happens is not known and even if it occurs may not be noticed. The high profile implant is 'new' in the history of augmentation and while popular, the projection and roundness after the implants have aged and a capsule sets in might make them less attractive over time. Take your time to sort out just what you think is best...
