I am pretty set on going with the new ideal implant, under the muscle, 300-350cc. My biggest concern with breast augmentation is the fear of them being too far apart and fake looking. I don’t have my consultation until April but I’d like to go into it with the most knowledge possible. The first picture is my pre op and second picture is my “wish boobs”. Is this look achievable for me? What profile would be the best for getting this look? Thanks!
Answer: Ideal implants and gapping, is my goal picture possible? Thank you for your pictures and questions. You have a wide sternal spacing and laterally displaced nipples, so the result you are going to have is dependent on this anatomy. The only way to get more medial pole fullness is to choose a wider implant, but for every inch you get more medial pole fullness, you will also have to add an inch laterally, making the implant stick out on the sides, because you should keep the implant centered underneath the nipple. The wrong way to try to correct this (and I have seen this far too often), is to medially displace an implant and then it ends up not being centered underneath the nipple and patients like you end up with nipples pointing towards the outside. Make sure you are not trying to reach a goal that is unrealistic and end up doing something you cannot fix in the process. With the Ideal implant, there is only one profile so you will pick the implant based on the size and the width will be determined based on that. Make sure you are seeing a plastic surgeon who is board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery for your consultation to advise you of what is best for you.Good luck!Dallas R.

Answer: Ideal Breast Implants Thank you for the question and pictures. I certainly think the Ideal Implant will give you the result you are looking for. The size needed to achieve your "wish boobs" would be larger than 350 cc based on the pictures. We usually do computer imaging and sizing in our office before surgery to get a better idea of what patients are comfortable with. The cleavage in the "wish" pic, may be a bit more than what you might expect due to your wide sternum. Be sure to discuss this with your surgeon. Good luck to you.

Answer: Ideal implants can provide great cleavage with a natural look It appears as though you can get very close to your wish pick. However, it's important to have realistic expectations that you might not be exactly like the woman in the photo since every body and breast shape is different. Ideal implants are a great way to increase the volume and cleavage of the breast while still giving a natural look and it looks like you can get amazing results!

Answer: Implant to Close the Gap Te best implant to avoid a large space between your breasts is one with the proper base diameter (width), and a volume that matches your size wishes as cklosely as possible. Whether this is an Ideal Implant or not is less important than the measurements of your tissue and a detailed and careful choice of whatever implant fits your tissues and achieves your goal.
