9 years after breast augmentation - would a different profile and larger size help me achieve more cleavage? (photos)

Question

I was 20 when I was a 34A and had an augmentation with 300cc high profile Mentor implants. I’m 29 now and unhappy with my cleavage. Standing in front of me it looks like my chest is flat in any low cut top. I have to squeeze my breasts together to get the cleavage I want (picture). I am now a 36C/D. I don’t like wearing push up bras because the padding makes my profile look huge and disproportionate. Do I need a larger size and different profile? 2nd procedure before or after kids?

Thank you for your question and photos. You do have nice looking breasts. Larger implants will lead to increased sagging and might not achieve your goals in the long run. If you were my patient, I would do fat transfer to the superior/medial areas of your breasts to give natural and soft fullness.
See a board certified plastic surgeon experienced in all aspects of breast surgery for an in person consultation/evaluation. Good luck.

Connie Hiers, MD, FACS · Answer

Going larger and with a higher profile will give you more upper fullness which is what you appear to be wanting. Please discuss this with your plastic surgeon. Don't go larger than what your frame and tissue will support.

Your breast augmentation looks good. The distance between your breasts is appropriate and I don’t think your implants should be brought closer to the midline. Be careful with increasing implant size. Using implants that are larger than the natural diameter of your breast increases the chance of undesirable side effects.
Based on your pictures, I would probably suggest leaving things the way they are for now. 
Best,
