Answer: Breast Implants/Breast Augmentation/Anatomic Gummy Bear Implants/ Silicone Implants/Breast Implant Revision Surgery I appreciate your question. The best way to determine implant size is based on chest wall measurements that fit your body. Once we determine that we can choose the profile based on what you want or need to achieve. Implants under the muscle, there is less risk of capsular contracture. Anatomic implants tend to give a more natural shape with more nipple projection. The best way to assess and give true advice would be an in-person exam. Please see a board-certified plastic surgeon that specializes in aesthetic and restorative breast surgery. Best of luck!

Answer: Subglandular implants Over the muscle looks more natural and maybgive more lift. It is also an easier recovery and useful in body builders. Higher fill gel implants can be used in thinner patients. Some increased risk with capsule contracture may result.An exam and consultation with a plastic surgeon is recommended to discuss your options and expectations.
