Would you recommend me a round or tear-drop breast implant for a small chest, little/no breast tissue?

Asked By:mdao in San Jose, CA

I am a mother of 2 breast fed children and my breast has lost the volume, a little sagging. I am 5'3 and 112 lbs, 32A, small 11" chest frame. I had two consultation with 2 doctors. The experienced doctor advised me to have the tear-drop implant for a natural look. Another one; however, insisted that i do not need the teardrop one, the correct size of the round one will give me the nice natural look as my small chest size won't fit nicely with the teardrop. I plan to have about 280cc-300cc.
