Are High Profile Implants Recommended for Patient with Wide Chest?

Please talk to your surgeon and explain what you define as "natural". High profile implants can achieve a natural looking result, however it may not do that for your body type if you have a wider chest. 

High profile implants can be used on a wide variety of chest diameters.  The implant base diameter should match the breast diameter.  The surgeon should measure the chest and help you choose an implant.  You should be picking the volume by trying on sizers.  Then together you and the surgeon can pick the right implant.

         It’s important to
understand that implants come in all shapes and sizes. Implants have unique
characteristics, which allow them to be used for specific indications. The
majority of patients will need moderate profile implants. These implants tend
to create breasts that appear to look more natural. This type of implant has a
wider base dimension. It creates a breast with less superior fullness and less
anterior projection.

 

         In contrast, high
profile implants have a narrow base dimension. These implants create a more
artificial appearance with more upper breast fullness and anterior breast
projection.

 

         In patients with
increased transverse chest dimensions, an implant with a broader base will be
necessary to create a natural appearance. In this case, a high profile implant
would be exactly what you don’t need. This would result in two breasts that
have significant projection, that are widely spaced giving a distinctly
abnormal appearance.
