How popular are UHP implants as a percent of augmentations, and what are the determining factors for their use as apposed to HP implants. Are there additional risks, what are they, and how often do they occur? Also, are they suitable for larger implants in the 550-600cc range when there is a desire for maximum projection, but a narrow chest wall?

Answer: UHP Implants These are more typically used for reconstructions after mastectomy as there is significant loss of projection when the areola/nipple is removed. For aesthetic augmentations, the Style 20 or High profile implants are usually sufficient. However, I agree with you that for the larger reconstructions in the 600+ range in patients with narrow chest walls, the UHP are a good choice. However there is nothing "natural" about the results these implants provide.

Answer: UHP = ultra fake look Thank you for your question. High profile implants look more fake than moderate or moderate plus profile implants. Ultra high profile implants tend to look ultra fake; especially big ones. If that is what you want, go for it. If you want a more natural look, stay away from high profile implants. Good luck. Be sure to see an experienced, board certified plastic surgeon.

Answer: How popular are UHP implants I think only the breast implant manufacturers can give the percentage of ultrahigh profile implants that are used but it does not appear to be a common scenario. They would be most useful in larger volumes were a narrow base is required. They are often used also in breast reconstruction following mastectomy for breast cancer.

Answer: Ultra high profile implant Thanks for your question. I've been using these devices more and more over the past few months now that more sizes are available. Most of my experience has been using them for our breast cancer reconstruction patients, but I've used them for cosmetic augmentation as well and been very pleased. They provide really nice projection, which is what I like. Plus, I've seen less ripping with the newer styles so far. Best wishes.
