You are asking for hard breasts

Dont over inflate 290's to 350 cc's! They will be hard balls in your chest. Hard water balloons. You may be a large C but your breasts will be hard and round. Dr Grant Stevens

Breast Implant Sizing?

Thank you for the question. Getting a breast augmentation can be much less “complicated” once you find a surgeon who you trust and can communicate clearly with. This communication well allow the surgeon to help you with decisions that he/she has much more experience with than you do. The more breast surgery I do the more I realize that there is no correlation between the size or model (profile) of implant used and resulting cup size. This may have to do with... more

Implant size

Dear Lulu, Did you have surgery yet. I cannot answer your question without a good exam and evaluation to give you an estimate on the size of implant to meet your desired size. It is not complicated.

Saline HP 290 Implant Size Filled to 350cc to Get C Cups?

Allow your surgeon to guide you on which size and style would work best

Although it is tempting to inform your plastic surgeon as to which size implant and which style of implant you most desire, I would recommend you allow your surgeon to determine what style of implant would fit your breast and body dimensions to give you the desired result you hope to achieve.

Breast Implant selection is dependent of many factors

You are quite correct that choosing the right breast implant depends on patient, physician and implant factors. In assessing the patient factors, Plastic surgeons need to accounts for the patient's age, body habitus and number of pregnancies/lactation. The patient's age has relevance because, as you observed, the breast composition becomes progressively more fatty and relaxed, as time goes by. We also evaluate the breast skin stretchiness, intrinsic breast tissue volume, position of the... more

Don't try to pick your own breast implants.

Hi! 1)  You really need a good evaluation.  You may need a slight breast lift as well as implants. 2)  350 cc's is too big to go up just one cup size. 3) See link below.
