Does anyone have a chest that caves in and got implants. How was it? How did they turn out? Did you go bigger than planned? I am very nervous about my breasts being to small due to the fact my chest caves in.

Hello :)
I am so lost with this choice to make! My surgery is this week and I need to get my mind right lol
I am 5'5 130 pounds, I have broad shoulders and little breast tissue. My chest caves also in which makes my breasts look even smaller. My concern is, the doctor said since I have such little breast tissue I should go under the muscle, which I'm okay with. My concern is the sizing. The size I picked was perfect for me! But I heard when you go under the muscle you lose some sizing. I did try the next size up but they made my shoulder look even more broad. But, now that I am going under the muscle I feel like maybe I should had gone with those just Incase I lose some sizing. I'm so concerned about going to small. I want them to look natural and I want to feel comfortable in them. I am also very nervous for this surgery! Any tips, advice, stories would be so much appreciated. You can message me or reply. :) thank you so much

I am 5'4" and 150lbs. I have a little broader shoulders too. I had my implants under the muscle because I had little breast tissue. I also wanted a natural look. I didn't want anything that would feel heavy. My doctor recommended a moderate profile that would look more natural on me. I have 345cc silicone. I m really happy. After reading this it's, I too worried about not choosing big enough implants, but I really went with what felt good for me and m happy I did because the next size up really did not feel right. I think he under the muscle technique might also help with your physiology because the muscle will help provide some positioning to offset the inward chest curve. Anyway, thank you for sharing your experience. Best wishes to you.

Hi honey bunch! I have a bit of N opposite but similar problem ( if that makes sense). My upper chest sticks out more and I appear “ribby” and skinny. Also had very little breast tissue ( tuberous, constricted) - don’t be afraid of going a little bigger. Also - what kind of profile and therefore width of the implants? This is part of the choice as well.implants that are too wide could make you look broader than you prefer. Do you know what is being considered?

Hello! I am using 475 moderate profile. I am worried about looking a lot more broad than I already do. I tried on the 500 high profile and hated it. But that was before we decided to go moderate. So now I wish I would had tried on the 500 moderate. But at the same time I feel the 500 moderate may make me look too broad. I would love to go bigger, just not broader lol

So here's my dilemma, I scheduled my appointment and it's tomorrow! As you can see my breasts are two different sizes...but my chest is very broad.
I went the 475 moderate plus on my smaller breast and 360 moderate on my smaller breast. We decided to go under the muscle. I am now worried I may have gone too small, but I also feel that if I go bigger it will make my chest look even more broad....so should I just stick with what I have? I feel like if I go any bigger I may regret it, but I might also regret going too small.....I have no idea what to do.

go bigger you always loose volume when you go under the muscle, I'm broad my bigger chest didn't make me look broader!

Your PS should take in multiple sizes or use sizers during surgery. I would give him 2 sizes you would like and ask him to pick what looks best and not to top heavy. This way you don’t blame yourself later if you feel you should of stuck with your original choice. Just an FYI, 50cc I believe is like 1 tbsp so it’s not much of a difference and most PS state not a noticeable difference if that helps. Good luck today, thinking about you! Keep me posted when you can.

When I called they said they had to order the smooth implants, so I would have to reschedule if I went the 500 instead. I think I'm going to stick with what I chose. I'm already worried about the side boob and looking to broad, I don't want to worry more lol

I think your first choice is your best choice! You liked that look for a reason. My PS ordered mine and I couldn't change my size (last minute) either once I picked. I wasn't willing to reschedule bc I was nervous already. I think you will be happy after a few months once d&f completes! The fluff is totally worth the wait!!! They will feel small when they unwrap you for the first time after surgery bc their being compressed. After 3 months or so d&f the magic happens, so patience is your next best friend.
