Ultra high profile implants on a wide chest plate?

Question

To the point: 5 years ago I had 415cc silicone high profile overs, I want bigger and my Dr says I can go up to 590cc ultra high profile silicone overs but I’m worried because 1.) I don’t want to lose any of my side boob and I know UHP is very narrow and forward 2.) I have a very wide chest plate and REALLY want cleavage and have 0 right now even with a Victoria’s secret push up. What implant is best for me? I’m 5’2 98lbs 29 yrs old, Pics and wish pics attached as well as measurements.

Good afternoon,
I perform over 200 XL augmentations a year, more than any other surgeon in the U.S.- I agree with your concerns. A 590cc UHP is not going to gain you anything in width (which equates to cleavage)- better idea would be switching to 600HP or 650XHP (or larger), both options would give you better cleavage!

Ronald J. Edelson, MD · Answer

I don’t think that going up to 590 cc implants would do much for you and it almost certainly will not help the cleavage. You have a nice result and I would not do anything.

Dear 123sam456,
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.
