High profile vs. moderate plus, 350cc? (Photo)

barbiesdedJul 3, 2016

I am in the interviewing stage of doctors for a BA. I am 41 years old, 1 child, fit (120 lbs., 5' 5"). I'm looking for something natural for wanting it to look like the size fits my frame. I tried on a 350cc high profile. I'm wondering if high profile or moderate plus is the way to go - I have what I learned is very little 'upper pole'. My husband is thinking that a softer look will accentuate it if I was to gain a few pounds after surgery, or if that will make a difference.

This is a great question! Every breast augmentation I perform is a "rapid recovery" surgery. I do not charge extra so that you can recover faster. No surgeon should charge you extra for fast recovery. However, the surgical techniques used to allow patients to recovery quickly after surgery are a...
