Which profile would allow me to keep mu current natural lift? Hoping to achieve a natural yet fuller look (photos)

A more natural result is achieved with a lower profile implant with a conservative volume based on a patient's base diameter placed under the muscle.

Dear JNewspaperGirl,
breast implant type and sizing selection is a complicated process and requires a detailed consultation that includes a discussion of your goals, a detailed examination, and a lengthy discussion. But the decision will always start and end with the patient. When it comes to sizing, we have all of our patients find 3 photos of their desired breast size. We ask for naked breast photos because clothing can obscure the true size (push up bras). Next, we consult with patients and go over the photos and take detailed breast measurements during a physical exam. Next, we using a sizing algorithm to determine a range of implants that will work based on the exam and the measurements.Lastly, during the operation, we use silicone sizers in the operating room to see how the size actually looks in the breast. We sit the patient up in the operating room, while asleep of course, and compare the sizer result with their desired look photos. If it is too small, we start the process over with a slightly larger implant. We don't stop until we get the perfect match.Of all of my breast augmentation patients, every one of them has been happy with their size due to this detailed and meticulous process. You don't want to invest time and money into a result that is either too big or too small.You should discuss your concerns with a board-certified plastic surgeon and make sure that your surgeon understands your goals.

Hello, I agree that NF distance is an important consideration. If the NF distance is really short (for example, 3-5cm), sometimes it's necessary to drop the inframammary fold in order for the breast implants to look balanced on the chest rather than sitting too high. Typically patients with a NF distance of 6-7cm don't require lowering of the IMF, but it depends on the size of implants chosen, etc. I don't rely on 3D images for my surgical decisions, but rather I take all of my own measurements. The anatomic points used by 3D imaging systems to come up with their measurements aren't always accurate in my opinion, so I use 3D renderings as an adjunct to my own physical examination. Thanks for your question.
