What happens if your breast implant diameter is smaller than your BWD?

January 22, 2020
Asked By:Adventurous4058 in Toronto, ON

My BWD is 12cm (two doctors measured me at 12 and another doctor measured me at 11.5) My surgeon has recommended I go with either 335 (11.5 Diameter) - 345 (11.75 Diameter) high profile silicone. I know the difference is minuscule but I am wondering what would happen if I went with the 11.5 diameter implant if my BWD is 12cm. Will they look weird / too tubular / not wide enough? I have very broad shoulders Thanks!
