My breast length is 14cm and I have a large boney area between. I wear a 32A bra. I am 5'5" 120lbs and 30yr. I wanted the 400cc, but I worry that the moderate would be so close to my breast length (1cm smaller) that I would look heavy with boob coming out my armpit. My same worry with the high profile is that my boney gap would be more noticeable, and I would end up sticking out too far. I'm a high school teacher who teaches yoga/cross training. Will 350cc fit better? Will 400cc cause sagging?

Answer: Breast Augmentation - Size Selection Thank you for your question. "Tissue based planning" relies on your chest and breast measurements and is the safest way to ensure good long term results. Your surgeon should determine what size and projection are necessary to give you your desired result based on your body's measurements. The best way to assess and give true advice would be an in-person exam. Please see a board-certified plastic surgeon that specializes in aesthetic breast surgery. Hope this helps and good luck with your surgery.

Answer: How to choose between high profile implant and moderate, and between 350cc and 400cc? Thank you for your pictures and questions. I think that you have a great starting point and will do very well with breast augmentation. You would likely be happy with either choice if implants. The higher the profile, the more of an augmented appearance you tend to have. Also consider the lower profile implant will give you more width and height to the implant, so this will provide more medial fullness and cleavage plane, but will also produce more lateral implant excess too as the implant will be centered underneath the nipple. I think that the goal pictures you show are certainly very augmented and probably more in line with a high profile implant with large volume. In addition, while you say that your "breast length" is 14 cm, I assume you mean width and I would doubt that based on your pictures, you are really that wide. You want to make sure you are having this measurement done by an experienced plastic surgeon because this is important to pick your implant. This is a decision that ultimately needs to be made by you and your plastic surgeon together based on your goals. Best of luck!
