Q: Are 275cc silicone implants large enough to get c cups?
A:
You ask a key question about breast augmentation . How do I know what Bra size I will achieve with a certain size implant. It involves much more than putting an implant sizer in your bra which is often decieving and does not correlate well with the result from implant surgery in which an implant is placed below the musle to improve shape and contour . The best way to determine the optimal size for you is to have your board-certified Plastic Surgeon exam you and determine your chest wall diameter and amount of breast tissue so he/she can give you the optimal size for your size, height and weight as well. THERE IS LITTLE TO NO CORRELATION BETWEEN THE IMPLANT SIZE AND BRA CUP SIZE.
