Is It Possible to Achieve a Natural Looking Tear Drop Shape when Using High Profile Implants?

Shnooks22
I recently had my pre-op appt. and was told by my PS that I could not get 425 cc moderate plus silicone like I was hoping for because they would be too wide for my frame. I could only go as big as 400 cc, or go with a 425 cc high profile instead. I had already had it in my head that HP means big, round, implants that sit high up on the chest. I want a nice sloping, tear drop shape from the side, and thought that was only possible with MP. I'm so conflicted now...please help! (-:
