Los Angeles Breast Augmentation: High Profile Breast Implants

Breast Implants Before and After Breast implants come in a variety of sizes, shapes, and surfaces. Patients may currently choose between saline or silicone based implants. The type of breast implant selected should be based on your physical and soft-tissue characteristics, as well as your aesthetic goals.

Implants also come in a variety of profiles (or projections). Higher profile implants provide patients with great anterior (forward) projection and more superior breast fullness relative to a moderate or mid-range profile. Because higher profile implants have a smaller base diameter, they are ideal in patients with narrow frames. Because of the smaller implant width, patients can achieve their ideal breast cup size, while avoiding the lateral width or “rounded-out” appearance seen in moderate profile implants. Because of their tapered vertical height, high profile implants may also reduce visible rippling.

Dr. Hoefflin is a Los Angeles and Beverly Hills board-certified plastic surgeon who specializes in all aspects of cosmetic plastic surgery procedures, including breast augmentation, breast implants, breast lifts, revision breast surgery and breast reduction procedures. He has significant expertise in both primary and revision breast surgery. As such, he performs breast augmentation surgery using all types and profiles of both saline and silicone breast implants.

Dr. Hoefflin performs his breast augmentations using the dual-plane approach, a specialized technique in which the breast implant is placed both above and below your pectoralis muscle. This advanced technique reduces superior pole implant visibility, reduced capsular contraction, and potential distortion from contraction of the muscle. The result is a more natural, attractive, and long-lasting result.

TESTIMONY: “Dr. Hoefflin made the entire breast augmentation process so simple. I was interested in natural but attractive breasts.
