Round Moderate Vs High Profile Implants

My advice to my patients is to always first go for the volume that you are interested in achieving.  Once you have decided on the actual size, then the focus can be turned to implant profiles.  Focusing on the profile first will usually limit the volume and hence not achieving the desired size.The difference between a moderate plus and a high profile implant is not very much, but the difference between a moderate plus and an ultra high is big.  A high profile implant will be a bit narrower than the same cc moderate plus, and will therefore provide a slightly fuller upper pole to the breast.It is important to have breast measurements performed in the office and to get sized prior to your procedure.Hope that helps.

Usually after examination and taking measurements you surgeon will advice for the best implant for you.

To make it easy to understand you can have the same size of implant ( same volume) in different shapes.

Lower profiles will be wider and less projected( will stick out in front of your chest less), higher profiles will be narrower and more projected.The right choice will depend on the look that you want achieve and the size of your chest and breast.

The profile is based on your chest width and the volume you chose. If you chose a big volume but have a narrow chest, a high profile implant will be used so that you don't have an excess of breast on the side. As you go smaller in volume, the profile (projection) gets less so then you get into the moderate profile range. All the best,Dr. BlaggAustin, TX
