I read John Tebbett’s book Augmentation Mammaplasty and in it the High Five method of tissue-based planning. For “natural” results can you go right up to the BWD with the implant diameter? Or is it optimal to go smaller than BWD? If so, by how much? My BWD was measured at 12cm (but may be closer to 13cm) and I’m trying to decide between Mod+ Xtra implant of 11.5cm diameter (295cc) or 11.9cm diameter (325cc). I’m 36 yrs old 5’8” 165lb. No ptosis. 0 gravida. Good skin quality, no laxity.
Answer: Natural-looking breast implants There are a number of factors to consider when your goals are a natural- looking breast augmentation. Generally using smaller volume, lower profile (also known as projection) is the best way to achieve a more natural appearance. It may also be worth considering using fat transfer (also known as fat grafting) in addition to an implant to add natural volume and customizable cleavage. This helps to soften aesthetic lines and hide the borders of the implant in thin women.

Answer: Implant diameter can be slightly smaller than BWD The decision on the optimal implant diameter relative to breast width for a natural-looking result can vary depending on a patient's individual factors and goals. However, generally, for a natural look, it is often recommended to choose an implant diameter that is slightly smaller than the breast width.

Answer: Size Your surgeon who has much more knowledge and experience than you can help you select the best fitting implant for your tissue and frame. It is more involved than just selecting the base width. You will be paying for that knowledge.

Answer: Breast Width Diameter and Breast Implants - We commonly place breast implants that are the same width of our breast augmentation patients' base diameter. You can still look natural if you go up to that natural base diameter, or breast width, that you have.

Answer: Breast width There are many factors that go into selecting the right implant for a patient. BWD is one of them, but there are many others. This is why it is so important to select an experienced board certified surgeon. Your surgeon will use her/his expertise in considering your goals and combining that information with your anatomy to help you get as close to the look you want as possible.
