Worried That High Profile Will Make my Breasts Too Far Apart? (photo)

I am set for my BA on the 28th. I am 20 years old, 5'3, 130 lbs, 34b. I will be getting 400 cc High Profile Saline Implants. Im worried they will be too far apart. I want a full C to small D, and a natural but perky look. I breastfed once for 3 weeks, and lost fullness at the top. I am unsure If I am a good candidate for High profile? and nervous about the gap looking completely strange with HP? My doctor said my breasts will not fit the same volume to get Mod +. Am I worrying myself?

Worried that high profile will make my breasts too far apart?

Thanks for providing the photo. There are several consideration when choosing breast implants. With regards to your concern about the breasts appear too far apart, the profile of the implant is not the primary cause if your breasts end up appearing far apart. If you look at your nipple position, they are wide apart from each other. This means that the breast implants need to be centered under the nipple and therefore you will have some separation between your breasts. If you place the... more

I would be a little worried that HP might not be the best implant for you....I would want just a little more width in you and I would suggest a moderate profile if you were my patient!

High profile implants

I agree with using high profile saline implants for one simple reason. They ripple much less. You are a great candidate and I agree with the size choice. Just make sure the implants will be under the muscle. Good luck!

High profile breast implants in Los Angeles

High profile breast implants have narrower base diameter and therefore give women less of a cleavage. I recommend a moderate profile of breast implant for breast augmentation to my Los Angeles patients. I also, have patients try on different size breast implants in order to see which one looks the best on them.

400 cc implants

The larger the implants the more likely you will need HP implants to match your breast width. An exam in person would help delineate the best implants for you.

Worried That High Profile Will Make my Breasts Too Far Apart?

It is not the implant width that determine the cleavage but your own anatomy! So you are wide set N/A complexes so no matter what width of implant you will still be widely set. You need to discuss this issue in detail in your pre operative informed consent appointment.

Implants widening the breasts?

Implant are selected base on there's with and desired volume. The natural anatomy of your chest and breasts have to be followed. Your breasts do not unusually wide so the selection by your PS will not make your breasts look wider. Dr ES

High Profile Breast Implants

The most important aspect for a plastic surgeon in choosing a breast implant is breast base diameter. In other words, the breast implant must fit apprpriately on your chest wall in order to look natural. The discussion with your surgeon about the size of implants should have given him a very realistic idea about the volume of breast you would like. The surgeons job is then to pick the best implant with an base diameter near what your measurements are. Even when this is done correctly the... more

High Profile Making Breasts Look Too Far Apart

In general, breasts that are far apart prior to surgery remain so after surgery. The higher profile implant, if tailored to your chest wall dimensions, will not create a larger space between your breasts. There is an art to making the breasts appear closer together in breast augmentation. Kenneth Hughes, MD Los Angeles, CA

Lower profile implants might be a better choice for women whose breasts are for part with breast augmentation.

Higher profile implants yield greater projection will with less increase in diameter. When a larger diameter is desired in breasts are separated a large distance from the chest wall, lower profile implants might be a better option.

What profile breast implant?

Your question is one that many women have. It's almost impossible for women to know which profile breast implant will work best for them. If you have chosen a surgeon who has an extensive experience with breast augmentation, that surgeon has probably chosen what he/she thinks will give you the results most in-line with what you discussed you want as an end result. I personally use high profile implants rarely and often prefer the moderate plus or midrange profile implants... more

Widely-spaced breasts

Looking at your photos, your breasts are widely-spaced. This means that unless you put in a really really large implant, you will still have space between them. But remember, that as your implants get closer in the midline, they will also hang more off the side giving that dreaded "side-boob". It really depnds on measurements that yoru surgeon took. I think that if you are trying to go with a moderat six eimplant like a 400cc, then a high profile sounds appropriate. more

Worried That High Profile Will Make my Breasts Too Far Apart?

It sounds like you surgeon is appropriate in following this guideline--use an implant not wider than the patient's breast width. The moderate + implants are wider than the HP's at any given volume. I would anticipate a nice outcome with the chosen implants. The implants will not bring widely spaced breasts any closer together. Your implants will not give as much cleavage as someone with breasts that are closer together, but should look attractive. All the best. more

Width of implants determines spacing in the middle, not the implant profile

You can get nice tight cleavage in the middle avoiding the death valley look with any profile of implant, moderate, moderate plus or high profile. The key is to use the right width (diameter) implant to get there.
