I want to get a very natural looking augmentation but can not seem to find any before and after photos of women who have gotten low profile implants in the 400-500cc range. It has me wondering why? I have about 100ccs of breast tissue and was told to go no larger than 490ccs based on my chest width. Because I can't find any before and after photos of low profile implants this big I am just worried I am missing something? Should I be worried about the outcome?

Answer: Low profile breast implants less commonly used. Thank you for your question. I find that few of my patients want low profile implants, because the diameter of even a fairly small implant is often too wide for the person's breast width. Moderate profile or full profile implants are most frequently chosen. However, I have occasionally used low profile implants for clients who are seeking cleavage but less projection.

Answer: Low Profile 500cc Would be Way Too Wide for You From your photos, you appear to be petite and slender. For an implant to look natural, and not overwhelm your chest wall, you will need to match the base width of your implant to the base width of your chest. A 500 mL low-profile implant is very wide and is very unlikely that it would fit your chest wall. Implants that are too wide will bump in the middle (synmastia) and extend into the armpits.Petite, slender women who desire to have 400 to 500 mL implants, generally need to go to a very narrow base with implant, in other words, a higher profile implant. Consult with your plastic surgeon and express your concerns, so that a volume solution can be tailored to help you get the proper width and volume that you desire.
