By Peter E. Johnson, MD - Chicago Plastic Surgeon

In our practice we encounter these kinds of questions every day. For example I was recently asked if I would use a 350cc moderate profile implant as she wanted her breast to be just like her friend who had recently undergone augmentation with that exact implant.

A: You really need to ask your surgeon this.

By John P. Di Saia, MD - Orange County Plastic Surgeon

Hello, No disrespect intended, but asking doctors who have never seen you what will give you "enough" cleavage is kinda silly. The plan you have made should give you more cleavage but will it be enough for you? No doctor on the internet can tell you that. This is just the truth.

A: Check all this with your doctor

By Richard P. Rand, MD - Seattle Plastic Surgeon

In general, it is true that a high profile implant will give you more projection and cleavage but it needs to be properly chosen to fit your body dimensions, not just by how many cc's it has in it.
