Are high profile or moderate profile implants best for you?

The choice between High profile implants, moderate plus implants, or moderate profile implants is harder than just one variable in the decision. One thing to consider is how wide your breast is, and how wide your chest is. You dont want to put in an implant that goes half way around your back, or one that leaves a big space in the middle of your chest. High profile implant generally give way more upper pole fullness (but dont look as natural). Moderate plus implants... more

Sounds like you want HP implants

From the description of what you want it sounds like HP is the best choice for you. Of course, this can only be determined by an exam of your actual starting point though.

High Profile Implants versus Moderate Plus

The best fit of implants for breast augmentation is to select an implant that's base diameter matches the diameter of your breast. The high profile implant will be larger and more projected than the moderate plus of the same diameter. If you are looking for more superior projection, you will probably be happier with high profile implants. If you want a more natural appearance, you will probably be higher with moderate plus profile implants. If you choose an implant that is wider than... more

High profile breast implants for shapely breasts

High profile breast implants give a better shape for most people in the size range you are considering. In the 500cc size ranges, moderate profile implants look too broad and flat to me. On the other hand, in the smaller sizes, less than about 375cc, I find the high profile implants too spherical. Especially for the "perky" look you are desiring, high profile implants are best.

Breast Augmentation- Breast Implants Profile

It sounds like you have a really clear idea of the results you want. The best implant size can only be selected after your physical exam by an experienced, expert plastic surgeon. When I chose implants, especially for those who want a larger size, I consider the width of the chest , the amount of breast tissue and the looseness of the skin. In the right patient, high profile implants can look great. If your base width is in the 13cm range, you have some breast... more

Perky and Beautiful

Since the advent of the high profile implant, I have rarely put anything other in a woman desiring breast augmentation. I think that the high profile implants impart the best shape to the breast. I have never had a patient wish to exchange out a high profile implant for a moderate high or round implant.

Profile of implants

The decision to choose a high profile or moderate plus profile or moderate profile, really depens upon your anatomy and your surgical goals. The narrower the patient and the larger they want, the more likely a higher profile implant in my practice.

High versus moderate profile implants

There is a significant difference in implant configuration between the moderate and high profile implants in the size range that you mentioned with the moderate ones being noticeably wider and less projecting. If you want more projecting, and less broad breasts, then the high profile implants can provide that but it may not be appropriate for you. Furthermore, these 2 styles are not interchangable at a given size. That is, typically the moderate profile implant will be of a smaller... more

Profile of impant

The only thing to look at when considering what profile of implant to use is the base width of your breast. You need to use the proper width of implant that fits your breast. In my practice I always have many implants available to use. I first make the pocket for the implant and insert a temporary sizer that I fill until the cup size is achieved that the patient wishes. Then I select an implant with the determined volume that is the proper base width for the patient.... more

Should I get high or moderate profile implants for my breasts?

Implant selection is one of the most important steps in planning for your breast augmentation. An experienced plastic surgeon will help you make the best determination. High profile implants are used when the patient is petite with a narrow chest and desires a considerable augmentation. The ideal is for the implant to fill your breast width. The implant should not be wider than your breast. Hope this helps!
