“Small B + 500cc = Approximitely? - California”
B2010
Not Sure
Spent: $5,880 in CALIFORNIA

hi, I just turned 20, am 5'6 and 145 pounds. I was on the very small side of a B, with very little/ if any sagging (no kids) and little tissue. I wanted to achieve a VERY natural look and feel while in a bathing/birthday suit ;). I want to become a small D - Mid D.
Well we kinda rushed into the surgery with only a weeks’ notice from first ap. and ended up going with 500cc h.p. smooth saline mentor under the muscle.
Would it have made my breast softer if I had gone with the silicone because of the little amount of tissue I was starting off with? How would it have affected the appearance of my breasts had I have gone with the moderate plus instead of the HP? Would there have been a difference?
While in clothes i felt i would have been okay using something (if needed) to boost what the doctor was going to give me with silicone pads or a V.S. pushup bra to achieve that extra 1/2 cup and t put me at a full D small DD.

For what it's worth, I don't think you could've done silicone anyway. I'm pretty sure you have to be 22+ to get silicone in the US.
From everything I've read on here, high profile is a taller and more narrow-based implant than the others. So it gives you more upper-pole fullness. Here's a great thread with doctor opinions.
I have to ask about the nipple-incision -- how does it feel afterward? I'm getting mine done on Monday with nipple-incision and the thought of having my nipples sliced is freaking me out a bit!
Yep, Makenzie's right. Your only option at this age was saline. I don't know how far post-op you are, but it looks like your implants still have some dropping to do.
