Answer: I want the cleavage look when my breasts are naked. What is the best implant to obtain this? Thank you for the question and photos. You have a good result considering your anatomy. The implants sit on the chest wall, and if your rib cage slopes down laterally (in your preop photo the breasts are situated laterally) the implants will do the same. The implants just magnify this fact. In your postop photo, the slight depression of the lower breast bone is again magnified by the augmentation. Personally, going to larger implants would be a mistake. I would close down the lateral implant pockets and also fat graft the medial breasts and cleavage area. See a board certified plastic surgeon familiar with fat transfer to the breasts and has good consistent results. Good luck.

Answer: Changing breast implants to improve cleavage Many patients would like increased cleavage, which can improve the look of your breasts in clothes and while nude. Cleavage can be enhanced by larger breast implants and revision of the tissue capsule internally. Raffy Karamanoukian MD FACs

Answer: I want the cleavage look when my breasts are naked. What is the best implant to obtain this? I agree with Dr. Pousti, but would like to add that it is not simply the type of implant that is used that gives the results you want. Preoperatively your breast photos show that your nipple areola complex (NAC) are lateral on your breasts. If implants are placed to give more cleavage, then your nipples would be even more exaggerated laterally. Typically implants are placed centered directly behind the NAC to give a symmetric shape with the NAC in the middle of the breast mound (it appears that your post operative photos show that). Going with a larger implant will certainly give you more cleavage, particularly an implant with a larger base diameter than what you currently have. Just keep in mind that you may end up with more "side boob" too. A capsulorraphy will help by limiting the amount of "side boob". Be sure to discuss your desires with a BCPS who has a lot of experience with this. Good luck!
