High profile implants

Selection of size and shape of breast implants is a highly individualized decision based on your size goals, desired appearance, and your natural anatomy. Breast implant shapes, or profiles, vary from shaping the volume of fill from a wide-flat (low profile pancake) shape to a narrow-high (high profile igloo) shape, and shapes in between. For a small framed woman who desires a larger volume, a high profile implant may be selected in order to fit appropriately on a narrow chest... more

Natural Results With High Profile Implants

Hello, Virtually anything high profile will not look natural. The bigger the implant or the smaller the breast, the more 'augmented' you will look as well. You are going to have to come to terms with the limitations of breast augmentation, and that you can't necessarily have it both ways. More importantly, you are probably not a good candidate for a 350cc implant because of your breast diameter and thin tissues. A physical exam would be helpful, but I would guess... more

Will High Profile Give me Natural Looking Results?

High profile implants rarely give as natural a look as the midprofile shapes. But you are so small framed that maybe that is what it will take to get the size you like. Sounds like you need another talk with the surgeon to figure it out.

High profile 350 cc implants

The problem as I see it is starting from the cc's of volume and working backwards. The implant that fits you has a diameter that is just under the width of your breast and if you choose a high profile volume in that diameter, assuming your breast is fairly average width for your chest, the volume of the implant should make you look about two cup sizes larger and very projected compared to what you were. You then look up the number of cc's on the chart for implant sizes and types and... more

Natural Looking Result with High Profile Implants

In my opinion, high profile implants do not give the most natural appearance. They tend to give a more "torpedo" shape. However, when a patient wants a large implant on a small chest, sometimes high profile is the only option. You may want to consider a smaller implant, which may allow you to use the moderate plus shape.

"Natural" results

A high profile implant doesn't give a "natural" look. It gives a push-up bra type of look, with fullness and roundness up top. If you like this look, then by all means, use a HP implant. However, I suspect that, given your measurements, this HP implant will look somewhat obviously surgical, and not "natural". You might want to re-size. All the best!

What is a "natural" breast augmentation

Very clearly, a HP augmentation on a petite frame will not look natural at all. However, by using sizing implants you can preop decide how big you need to go to be happy even if it doesn't mean looking natural.

Choosing implant size

There is no way to answer that question since implant sizes are customized at the time of examination and consultation.

Choosing the right implants

Choosing the right implants for you are best performed during a consultation. Without the exam it is impossible to say what would be good for you.

Breast Augmentation: large and natural look may not fit in the same bra.

Thank you for your question and I appreciate your concern. You said that you are 5 ft, 106 lb with a BWD of 11.5 cm. This means that you are petite. The diameter of a 350 cc high profile gel implant is 11.7cm. High profile is about the only way to get a sizeable implant on your frame. You said that you want a natural look but you don't want to be small. To be completely honest, your statement is a contradiction in terms. Women who are 5 ft, 106 lb do... more
