Is It Possible to Get Breast Implants That Are Not Widely Spaced?

I want implants that are not widely spaced. How? I am tall 5'9'' with a large rib cage. I wear a 36' bra. I don't care about projection and don't want very large breasts.

Spacing between breasts after augmentation

One of the most common concerns that patients express is the desire to have natural looking cleavage, especially after seeing so many pictures online with a wide gap between the breasts. The key to getting it right is to have the correct diameter of the implants so that when they are properly centered under the nipples, they will fill out the entire width of the breasts. When you want to minimize volume, this is the low profile implant.

Cleavage and Breast Implants

The ideal Breast Augmentation requires placement of the implants exactly under the nipples wherever they are located. Failure to do so or downward slippage/descent of the implants results with nipples on the slope rather than the apex of the breast and an unnatural to weird appearance. So - if your nipples allow close placement of implants which can be covered by your present breasts, by all means a nice cleavage when naked can be created. On the other hand, if the nipples are located... more

Breast Implant Position

In many breast augmentation patients, the inframammary fold needs to be lowered in order to allow the implant to rest at a level that appears natural relative to the position of the nipple and areola. Ideally the implant should be centered directly behind the nipple-areola complex (NAC). In profile, the natural-appearing breast is not convex in the upper pole, and an excessively convex and overly full upper pole is a dead giveaway that a breast implant sits below the skin.

Is It Possible to Get Breast Implants That Are Not Widely Spaced

More often than not, it is your anatomy that determines how widely spaced the implants will be. If you r nipples are widely spaced or you have a mild pectus carinatum, you are more likely  to have this apearance. Choosing a wider diameter implant may help lessen the amount of separation/

Implants that are not too far apart

There are different "profiles" to breast implants, and they vary in diameter.  If you are looking for an augmentation that will provide you with more cleavage than projection, than you will want to choose an implant with a wider diameter.  I typically tell my patients that the first thing that they need to choose is volume, ie: cc's of the implant to determine what cup size they want, then after measuring the diameter of their natural breast, we discuss the... more

Breast implants should not be widely spaced.

Hi. Your expectations are very realistic with good surgery.  Your description of your anatomy and of your goals make you sound like an excellent candidate for straight forward breast augmentation.  And I think it is great that you don't want to be very large. see video

Implant choices

I assume that you mean cleavage. Your cleavage is defined alot by your anatomy and how the pectoralis muscle inserts into the sternum.  Without an exam it would be difficult to tell you.

Spacing of Breast Implants

Basically, breast implants will enhance what you already have.  If you have wide spaced breasts that you will have larger, but wide spaced breasts.  There are adjustments that can be made to narrow the space somewhat, but it really is limited by your anatomy.  If you were having a breast lift at the same time, then there is a little bit more flexibility in the spacing of the breasts.  Good luck.

Maybe

You need to be seen and evaluated. Usually the implants are centered behind your nipples - so if they are widely spaced so will the implants.

Breast Implants and Cleavage

What you are referring to is a moderate profile implant.  They are wider and not as projecting.  But ultimately what determines if you are going to have much cleavage is your anatomy. If your breasts are widely spaced apart there is a limit to how much cleavage you could obtain, but a moderate style implant helps. Good luck.
