Breast Implants: Q&A
Ask a QuestionAre 300cc Silicone Breast Implants Too Big for a Petite, A Cup Woman?
Will getting 300cc high profile silicone breast implants be too big or fake-looking on my body? The implants will be under the muscle. My measurements are:
- height=5'2''
- weight=110 lbs.
- ribcage=31.5in.
- BWD=10cm.
- pre-BA=34A
I would like be a 34C. Also if this helps, my other measurements are: shoulders 17in.; waist 26in.; hips 35.5in. I was a 34A full when I was nursing 9 years ago. I have 1 child.

Those are big implants
If you are as small as you say, those are big implants. And by my taste,. high profile implants tend to look round and fake, and seem to cause an excessive amount of skin stretch, atrophy of breast tissue, and concavity of the rib cage over time. Of course that doesn't happen to everyone, but one cannot place highly projecting implants into tissue with impunity. There is a price to pay for stretching tissue beyond where it has ever been or is meant to go.
Assuming your base width is 10 cm...

Breast Implant sizing and Augmentation
Dear @sweet
You ask a very good question. The answers that have been posted give you a large range of choice....that is the precise answer! Choice. The size you would like to achieve will have some trade offs associated with it. If the implant is larger than your breast envelope will adapt to easily the result may be more 'fake' looking breasts and tissue atrophy over time. My role is to guide you in the size but in the end I will try to accomodate your wishes as best that i can. A 300cc im

Breast implant sizes.
Hi!
1) Probably too big. May look fake.
2) Not your resposibility to pick breast implants. Surgeon should do this once he or she really understands the look you want.
3) Surgeon should place disposable breast implant SIZERS in your breasts during surgery. That way, your surgeon can actually see the look that a particular implant size gives you before opening the permanent implants. No guess work.
4) Surgeon needs to have inventory of different size implants in operating room. That...

Silicone breast implant sizing and measurements
There are many factors that go into sizing of implants-your desires, tissues and your measurements. The measurements are a guide and put the surgeon and the patient "in the ballpark" for what fits for your body. Also the measurements aren't always exact and reproducible amongst different surgeons doing the measuring.
The Allergan Style 20 High Profile 300 cc device has a base dimension of 10.9 cm. If your true breast base width is 10.0 cm then you can expect the 300 cc HP(10.9cm...

Sizing of breast implants.
Thank you for all the measurements. It sounds that your size may be in the ballpark for your frame. We don't have photos or an exam, which can also be important. Plastic Surgeons all have different ways of selecting implants. Our office favors base width. Having said that, we also try and fit the implant choice with what the patient's goal is. Often we have patients bring in photos so that everyone has a good idea of the goal.

Are 300cc Silicone Breast Implants Too Big for a Petite, A Cup Woman
I think the implant size may be too big for your frame but it depends on the look you are trying to achieve. When you go to the Plastic Surgeons office for your consultation try on different size implants with different garments. Inform the surgeon what you are trying to achieve and he will help you to realize your goal.

Breast implant sizing
It is very important to communicate your size goals with your surgeon. In my practice, the use of photographs of “goal” pictures (and breasts that are too big or too small) is very helpful. I have found that the use of words such as “natural” or “C cup” or "fake looking" means different things to different people and therefore prove unhelpful.
Also, as you know, cup size varies depending on who makes the bra; therefore, discussing desired...

The best breast
It sounds reasonable but it really depends on what you're wanting your look to be. I use high profile implants in patients that are your dimensions because they are the only way to get that size in when you're so thin. Because you were pregnant, I'm hoping that your tissues stretched some and will accomodate these implants reasonably without having stretched beyond retraction (the taffy effect).
At first, these implants will look and feel tight. That's because you put a big implant...

Choosing the right size implant
Choosing the right size implant is based on your exact body and chest measurements and tissue type. The base width of your chest is only one factor in deciding your implant size. You also have to consider how thick or thin your tissue is that is going to provide coverage for the implant and how loose or tight the skin is. These are all factors that your surgeon should go over with you. From the measurements you have provided the implant size is likely larger than your body can tolerate...
