Does Shape of Tissue Expander for Breast Reconstruction Matter?

Tags: expander
After radical mastectomy on left breast following cancer (but no chemo or radiation required), two plastic surgeons have recommended lat flap surgery followed by implant. One doctor suggested a "tear drop" (low profile) shaped tissue expander, while the other made no distinction of shape and would use what appears to be the typical round expander. Should I expect any difference in results following the implant?
