I had my breasts done 3 years ago and have not been able to obtain cleavage because my breasts are so far apart. Even when I push them together, they will barely touch without looking deformed. I was told recently by another doctor that I could not have close cleavage due to my anatomy. However, prior to the surgery, I was able to have cleavage. Is it possible to find a surgeon who can shift the pocket more to the front to obtain cleavage? Will that risk symmastia?

Implants are picked based on your body and the size of your chest and breast. A 400 cc implant in one person will not look the same as a 400 cc implant in someone else. The shape of the implant will make a difference, as will where the implant is placed (above or below the muscle).
The best way...
