Breast implant size

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... more

Breast Implant Size

There is not a one size fits all equation for patients choosing breast implants. There are many variables such as breast width, tissue thickness, etc. This can only be determined at your surgeons office. If you are seeing a board-certified plastic surgeon then you should be in good hands. Generally there is a small range of sizes for you to choose from that would be appropriate for your body. Good Luck.

Breast implant size

Your board certified plastic surgeon must help you make this decision. You can't figure it out mathematically because threre are too many variables. His experience will take into account your tissues and the implant dimensions and how one will play off the other. I have people come into my office asking for my receptionists size all day and then they hear that she has 350 and they want a different size. It is a very individualized process.

How to pick breast implants.

Hi. 1) This is probably the most common question on RealSelf. 2) It is the surgeon's job to pick the right breast implants, not the patient's. Implant selection is really pretty technical. 3) Make sure your surgeon REALLY understands the look you want. Mentioning a cup size is not enough. Show your surgeon pictures of breasts you like. 4) Then your surgeon has to tell you if your chosen look is realistic for your anatomy. The most common... more

Is 350cc Moderate 480cc a Good Size For Me?

Totally agree with Dr Sherman. Best if you would have posted a frontal photo so we could advise to our selection in size for you. My guess is 400 cc.

Implant size

It is important for the patient to have an input in the implant selection process. Once you have determined what you are are intereseted in acheiving, your surgeon can advise you on the best way/implant size to achieve it. The implants are dimensioned by volume, width and projection, so any given implant may be used on a large number of women who have different heights, weights, and breast shapes to yield very good results. Based on your weight and bra size( are you... more

Breast implant size

Morgan: the whole concept of choosing an implant for your augmentation has changed over the past decade. No longer does the relative amount of fill (350 vs 300 cc) mean as much as other dimensions. There is base width to consider, desired projection, and the vertical height of the implant if the implant is not round. As noted below, the cup size of the bra is not much use, since the same size breast has different cup sizes in different manufacturers. The most important thing is to... more

Breast Implant and Bra Cup Size

Plastic surgeons and breast implant manufacturers do not measure breast implants in cup sizes. Each bra manufacturer measures cup size differently; a B-cup from one company may be a C-cup in another company. However, as a general rule, an approximately 150-200cc breast implant will roughly correspond to a cup-size increase in breast volume depending on patient height, weight, chest width, etc... Furthermore, the cup-size of a bra measures the breast volume, whereas the... more

Implant size and bra cup size

The volume of breast implants do not necessarily correlate with bra cup sizes, your surgeon must make an educated decision based on your body's tissue and dimensions. 400 cc could be a D cup in one person and a C cup in another. The number, 34 or 36, should not be affected by the implant size. Best wishes, Dr. Bruno
