"I had a mastoplexy when my breasts were considerably large (34F). Two years later, I still have my fullness and the shape is fine, however, I would like more fullness at the top of the breast for cleavage. Most doctors see the large breast and discourage enhancement surgery, but this is a very bothersome part of me. Are there breast enhancers that are inserted on the top of the breast for a rounder look to a naturally large breast?"

Even when patients have large breasts, the breast shape may be improved with the placement of a small breast implant either in front of or behind the muscle in the upper half of the breast. Depending on the patient’s size and desired shape, the best result is sometimes achieved by performing a small breast reduction at the same time as the placement of a larger implant. The implants selected are usually similar to the standard breast augmentation implant and while the companies do have some “partial” implants, these usually work best in breast reconstruction patients.
