Low-Plus better than Moderate Profile for smaller implants?

argbaby
Small 32AA, 170cc (natural volume) BW 13 cm, sub-muscular, inframammary incision. I was going to get 195cc moderate profile, diameter of 10.25. I don't want too large, but I heard if it's too small it will create too big of a gap on my chest. I am scared of lower profiles because I don't have enough breast tissue to hide potential rippling, but low plus? goals: 32/34B. When it comes to breast pocket size are there any other issues with going "too small?" Lower better for small?
