I have smaller space than usual between my nipple and end of breast. This isn't due to sagging - it's always been this way as they're positioned low although I have lost weight recently and lost what little volume I used to have from the top. I am getting surgery and can't decide on tear drop or round. I don't like very obviously fake boobs and want a natural fuller augmentation shape. My surgeon suggested mentor anatomical but I'm a little worried about horror stories of them moving

Answer: Teardrop or round? You can elect either and would have a nice result. The round implants will conform to the space and should give you a natural shape once in the body. I encourage you to return to your surgeon to discuss your concerns. I've included a video on implant selection that I hope you find helpful

Answer: Choosing your implant A round implant will usually settle into a very nice teardrop shape after a a few months. This allows a patient to avoid extra potential problems associated with shaped implants. Good luck with your surgery!

Answer: Round vs Anatomical shaped implants. Either round, smooth or anatomical implants can give you an excellent result. You appear to have a slight variant of a tuberous breast deformity where the distance from your nipple to your fold is shortened. Either implant can be used to augment and improve the shape and size of your breast. There are two things to consider about anatomically shaped implants that are not a concern with smooth around implants. First, the anatomically shaped implants must be textured to help to minimize the risk of them rotating and requiring an additional surgery to correct and the association with the textured implants and the very rare tumor, anaplastic large cell lymphoma. Due to these two factors that can occur with the textured anatomical implants, my preference and recommendation is always to use smooth, around implants. Best wishes.
