29 years old 5 ft 6 135lb. I have breast fed 3 children and I have my surgery booked for next month. I am hoping to have 500cc high profile unders.. really nervous that my nipples will point outwards even further? Am I making the right choice of size and profile?
Answer: Implant choice will not change nipple position much Because your nipples are positioned laterally - a normal thing by the way - you cannot influence that by the choice of implant type. The main issue would be to not go too large, because the skin between the nipples and the middle of your chest may expand, making the nipples appear more lateral.

Answer: Nipple position Dear bbrighton,breast augmentation alone will not correct the position of your nipples. If you are considering a surgery, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.Daniel Barrett, MD Certified, American Board of Plastic Surgery Member, American Society of Plastic Surgery Member, American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery

Answer: This implant choice will worsen your outward-pointing nipples Thanks for a great question. If outward pointing nipples are a concern for you then I do not think your planned implants are a good choice for you. Here's why. Imagine your chest shape in cross-section - that is, if you'd been sawn through the chest like a magician's assistant. People have various different shapes - yours is rounded. This means the base on which your breasts sit is curved, so your breasts point outwards away from each other. Now think what happens when you add breast implants. Your breasts will be pushed forwards more. As they started off pointing outwards from each other, that means the nipples will become more separated. And that effect will be greater the larger your implants and the higher their profile. And your implants? They're unusually large, and they are one of the highest profiles. How can some people get away with these implants and look great? Because they having a flatter chest surface rather than the rounded one that you have. When the breast bases are on about the same plane, they can project forwards a lot with the nipples not separating much. When they are on very different planes, like yours, the more they project the further apart they become. In my opinion the implants you're lined up for are just not the best choice for you. I would advise you to schedule another appointment to discuss your concerns, and if necessary line up other opinions. Best of luck.

Answer: Breast augmentation booked with lateral (outward facing nipples). Will I get a good result? Having a breast augmentation surgery only enlarges what you already have, which means, having BA alone will add volume on the breasts but will not really affect the position of the nipples. If this is not a concern you are looking forward to dealing with, then everything is good. The optimal implant size and shape will depend on many factors such as your chest wall measurements.

Answer: Breast Implant, Nipple position Hi you are justified in your concern and the bigger the implant the more exaggerated the preoperative breast/nipple asymmetry or position will be. So go for a smaller size or think of Fat transfer hope this helps do keep me posted warm regards Dr Prashant Murugkar Clinique Beaute Naturelle
