I had a consultation with a PS yesterday and asked him for a conservative and natural look. I am 5'5, 110lb and ribcage 28" with broad shoulders. He recommended 280cc HP silicone implants placed under the muscle. I am scared to death of HP implants as majority of people say it looks fake. The bottom of my ribs do stick out so I know I do need some projection.. Do you think I can achieve a natural look with HP? (please see photo!)

Answer: Natural look
HP implants do not necessarily look fake. It is really the size of the implants and the underlying breast tissue volume that you have that will determine that. I prefer HP implants for patients with narrow frames.

Answer: Natural look with high profile breast implants Natural can be difficult to explain to others and one persons 'natural' may be artificial to another. In our practice we use photos, sizing implants, and other methods to help determine breast size and projection. You should focus on the look that you would like, and bring your goals to your surgeon. The surgeon should be willing to use an implant which will help you reach your goal, the result which you feel will be natural for you. Twenty years ago all breast implants were low profile and considered natural. They blended fully with the breast and moved and flowed with the breast. Currently we are in a phase of higher and rounder breast implants, what might have been considered a grade I capsule years ago. They are natural enough for some and many use them. They do allow the surgeon to push up the volume on those with a very slim chest such as yours and allow a fuller augmentation, yet they may not be for everyone. You can have a very nice augmentation with a moderate profile implant, so if you are concerned, make sure that your surgeon know what you want, and what 'natural' means to you. Best of luck, peterejohnsonmd
