Would 375cc high profile Mentor implants provide a proportionate result?

Hello and thank you for your question. Honestly, a formal in-person evaluation would be needed to determine the best treatment. There are several reasons for this:
1) Bra sizes vary based on the clothing store (for example, Victoria's Secret tends to upsize everyone by a whole cup size)
2) Most women do not wear the proper exact fitting bra size for their bodies
3) The exact volume (in cc) needed to change cup size is different for different body types (e.g. 32A to 32D requires a different implant size than 38A to 38D)
4) Be careful NOT to fall into the trap most women do- they see a certain implant size (e.g. 285 cc) or perhaps their friend had a certain size, and they want or request this or another size based on that. Everyone's body is different- 285 cc implants on your friend might look VERY different than they would on you. Be very careful not to make this mistake, because the goal is to find the right size and shape for YOU- for your particular body and your breasts.

Because of those multiple factors, and because it is KEY to fully evaluate your breasts in person to make a full set of precise measurements to select the proper implant for you (incorporating factors like amount of breast tissue, implant type, base width, projection, etc), answering your question really would need a formal personalized consultation- to say anything before that would simply be guessing, which would be both unfair and unhelpful to you. Also, just FYI, each surgeon's measurements are slightly different, so numbers, experience, and overall aesthetic from one surgeon aren't necessarily the same as those from another surgeon!

Your breasts are such a KEY area of your body and your femininity- therefore, you should ONLY trust an experienced aesthetic plastic surgeon. As such an expert, I have had extensive training and experience with complex aesthetic surgeries under a multiple world-renowned experts in the field. I’d recommend for you to setup a formal consultation with me (or another plastic surgeon who is extremely comfortable with aesthetic plastic surgery procedures) for a formal consultation to thoroughly discuss your surgical goals, undergo a formal examination, evaluate all your options (surgical and nonsurgical), and decide on the best procedure(s) and type of anesthesia for your specific case. I hope this helps!

Thanks for your inquiry, honestly without an in person exam it is hard to advise. Mentor does not make a 430 HP, they do make a 430 UHP and a 430 SMHX silicone implant so I do not know if the surgeon wanted a different projection or firmness to create the result you described to him.

After I measure and discuss goals with my patients, we then look at pictures of women (my patients) with similar measurements with different size implants. They also get to see what they would look like when the breasts have fully dropped and fluffed and in clothes. You get to see actual results and the surgeon's experience and not a virtual idea of what can be achieved. Women tell me that this process is very helpful in determining what is right for them.

I suggest 3D breast implant imaging so you can see what different implants will look like before your procedure. The technology controls for implant shape, volume, and profile.

High profile Mentor implants can potentially provide a proportionate result, especially for individuals with a narrow chest who desire a more noticeable breast augmentation, as they offer greater projection and a fuller appearance, creating a more balanced look compared to a lower profile implant; however, the most proportionate result depends on the individual's body type and desired outcome, so consulting a plastic surgeon is crucial to determine the best implant choice. Key points about high profile implants: More projection:High profile implants have a smaller base and greater projection, resulting in a more prominent breast appearance. Suitable for narrow chests:They can be particularly well-suited for individuals with a narrow chest width, creating a more proportionate look. Visible enhancement:High profile implants are ideal for those who want a more noticeable change in breast size and shape. Important considerations: Natural look vs. dramatic look:While high profile implants can provide a proportionate result for some, if a more natural appearance is desired, a moderate profile implant might be better suited. Consultation with a surgeon:A qualified plastic surgeon can assess your body type and goals to determine the best implant profile for a proportionate outcome

Without an exam it's difficult to make a specific recommendation. Many surgeons have sample implants you can try on to get a feel for how you may look after surgery. I also use sizers in the operating room to help find the implant that fits well and best matches my patient's desired look.
