Moderate profile v high profile for narrow chest? (Photo)

User Avatar
Sherry27Nov 14, 2015

Hi there. I have been debating between getting 240cc silicone moderate profile implants or silicone high profile implants (unsure of HP size). My current cup size is AA, BWD is 11cm, I'm 5'8", 130 lbs., and I have no kids. Are high profile implants ideal for someone of my size? I wish to go as large as my body would suit. What high profile cc range should I stay in?
