Nipples Don't Sit the Same, and Point Outward Instead of Forward? (photo)

Thank you for your pictures.  Implants only follow the natural breast form.  You are correct that the increase in size will make your nipples appear further apart.

Thank you for your question and photos.  This is a common question that women have.  The nipples are naturally divergent, meaning they point out to the sides a little bit.  Your nipple position is nothing unusual.  Each breast has a "footprint" on the chest, which cannot be changed.  That is where your breast is naturally connected to the chest wall and cannot be changed.  Implants need to be placed under the breast tissue centrally to "augment" the breast.  A breast augmentation does not change the position of the breast on the chest wall, it simply "augments" or pushes it out further.  Your nipple position will be unchanged and will have a nice, natural look.  You can have a very nice result. 

Best of luck

 

As mentioned, your chest wall curves outward and your nipples are on the outside of your breast. If you try to place the implants more in the center, it will only make your nipples look farther out as they will not be centered on the implant, but rather, will be on the outside of the implant. That is why everyone says that you must center the implant on the breast mound. I will tell you from experience dealing with patients that are shaped similar to you, that you can get a very nice result with an augmentation and will be happy with your shape.
