I am 4'11" and weigh about 95 pounds. I am choosing 300cc silicone implants. I am afraid that size is still too big for me. My surgeon wants me to do high profile implants. I always thought high profile implants look unnatural and i prefer a more natural look and dont want my breasts to look so large but he says that moderate profile looks too wide on small frames. Is this true? Would i still look natural with 300cc high profile silicone implants placed behind the muscle?

Answer: High profile breast implants High profile implants are used by some surgeons for narrow breast width patients if they want a size larger than a moderate profile implant will accommodate. Also, not all implants manufacturers make their profiles the same, despite using the same wording for their different profiles adding the the confusion. Therefore many surgeons, including myself, look at your measurements, the breast implant measurements and try and find one that best meets your desired final look. If you are unsure, seek a second opinion with an in person consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon (by the American Board of Plastic Surgery). I hope this helps and best wishes.

Answer: For breast augmentation the patient chooses the volume in the surgeon chooses the profile. Once patient has decided the ultimate size of the desired breast it is responsibility of the surgeon to match the profile to the anatomic measurements of the chest wall.
