A high profile implant has a narrower base and projects further forward. For a given volume, it creates more projection and a more rounded, prominent shape than a moderate profile.
Who it suits
High profiles often suit patients with a narrow chest or breast base who still want good volume and projection, since the narrower base fits their frame while delivering fullness.
Considerations
- More projection can look fuller and more "augmented".
- On very thin tissue, higher-projecting implants can increase visible rippling at the edges.
Compare with extra high profile for the most projection, and always match profile to your measurements.
