I am considering teardrop implants, but know that many doctors think round implants feel more natural. I also don't like the risk of rotation. I don't want roundness on top, though, which I why I liked the anatomical shape.

Answer: Anatomical implants for a natural slope Thank you for the question. The natural look can be achieved by choosing the most appropriate implant for your body size and shape. To avoid the too round look I choose either a moderat profile round implant or an anatomical shaped implant for a smoother slope. Anatomical implants rarely rotate when placed correctly in the ideal patient. The texturing of the implants keeps the implants in place if the pocket is made to fit the implant. I would recommend you see a board certified plastic surgeon who is confident and has extensive experience in placing anatomical implants so you have the option to pick the right implants to meet your goals. Best of luck!Dr. Khuthaila

Answer: Natural breast implants Thank you for an excellent question. It is possible to get a natural slope using a round silicone implant. When in the body, the round implants take on a very natural shape if you are upright, as the silicone migrates to the lower pole of the implant. Two factors help with this:1. The profile of the implant - The higher profile implants give a more rounded appearance of the breast, which can take away from the natural slope. I would suggest a moderate or moderate plus profile to avoid the implanted look.2. The position of the implant - The submuscular placement of the implant gives a more natural slope of the breast. Placement of the implant above the muscle can create a superior shelf and a less natural slope.If you select a reasonable size implant with a moderate profile, you should be able to have a natural shaped and sloped breast using a round implant.Best of luck with your breasts.Jeff Rockmore

Answer: Round or teardrop implants tear drop shaped implants are not always needed to achieve a natural looking top .choosing the appropriate sized round implant with proper projection & placed in the proper plane will always achieve the desired results without the risk of implant rotation that can happen with a tear drop shaped implant.But having said that many surgeons are comfortable with shaped implants also. So just convey your thoughts to your plastic surgeon and make sure you get the best results
