I'm Going from 325cc to 500 or 550cc but Can't Decide on Saline or Silicone...any Advice?

Asked By:koozie in Maryland

I'm going in for a second augmentation for larger boobs. My PS says b/c of the way my ribcage sits that there is no way to get a lot of natural cleavage but that if I go bigger he can them a little bit closer. I'm 5'3 115lbs and want to go to 500-550cc. Do you think that will be too big on my frame? Does silicone vs. saline make that big of a difference visually? Thanks!
