Is it possible to achieve natural looking breasts with HP? (Photo)

Dear Genius1068,
breast implant type and sizing selection is a complicated process and requires a detailed consultation that includes a discussion of your goals, a detailed examination, and a lengthy discussion. But the decision will always start and end with the patient. When it comes to sizing, we have all of our patients find 3 photos of their desired breast size. We ask for naked breast photos because clothing can obscure the true size (push up bras). Next, we consult with patients and go over the photos and take detailed breast measurements during a physical exam. Next, we using a sizing algorithm to determine a range of implants that will work based on the exam and the measurements.Lastly, during the operation, we use silicone sizers in the operating room to see how the size actually looks in the breast. We sit the patient up in the operating room, while asleep of course, and compare the sizer result with their desired look photos. If it is too small, we start the process over with a slightly larger implant. We don't stop until we get the perfect match.Of all of my breast augmentation patients, every one of them has been happy with their size due to this detailed and meticulous process. You don't want to invest time and money into a result that is either too big or too small.You should discuss your concerns with a board-certified plastic surgeon and make sure that your surgeon understands your goals.

Your concerns and preferences are valid, and it's essential to communicate them with your plastic surgeon. High-profile implants can provide more projection, while moderate-profile implants offer a more natural look with a slightly wider base.
Share your desire for a more natural look with increased size and express any concerns you have about high-profile implants. Discuss your aesthetic goals with your surgeon. Ask your surgeon for before and after photos of patients who have similar body types and aesthetic goals. This can give you a better idea of the potential outcomes with both high-profile and moderate-profile implants.

During your consultation, use sizers to get a sense of how different sizes and profiles may look on your body. This can help you visualize the potential results and make a more informed decision.

If you are uncertain, consider seeking a second opinion from another qualified plastic surgeon. They can provide an alternative perspective and offer guidance based on your specific situation.

Ultimately, the decision between high-profile and moderate-profile implants should align with your personal goals and the look you want to achieve.

Best of luck !
