Will a 330 Silicone Implant Give Me a Full B Cup?

I'm currently an A cup. I was a small B cup before nursing my two lil ones. At the initial consultation,I told my PS I want to be a full B cup,maybe a small C, want natural looking breast that fit my frame and don't want my breast tissue to look stretch. PS recommended a 330 moderate profile, silicone implant placed behind the muscle. After looking at before and after photos on the internet,I think 330cc may be too big. I like the full B results. At the pre-op,PS still recommended 330s.Too big?

Breast augmentation and correct implant size

Breast implant size 1. 32 a to 32 c needs about 250-275 cc 2. 34a to 34c needs about 300-350 cc 3. 36a to 36 c needs about 350-400 cc 4. You will be a double dd or larger with 400

Implant size, cup size relationship

If you are size 32 or 34 bra, each 100 cc of implant corresponds to 1 cup size change. If you are size 36 or 38 bra, each 200 cc of implant will correspond to 1 cup size change. 330 cc of implant would be about 3 cup size increase if you are a 32 or 34 or about 1 1/2 cup size increase if you are a 36 or 38. Since implants are going under the muscle, the projection will be limited by the musle tone not by the profile of the implant. There is very little difference... more

Breast implants

Looking on the Internet is an excellent way to learn about implants sizing. 330 cc's is likely to make you a mid C cup. Show photos of cases you like to your plastic surgeon and it will make it easier to settle on the size which is right for you.

Is 330 cc silicone implant too big?

Without an in office exam of your breasts it is difficult to answer this question. Implant size selection is based on your current breast tissue volume, coupled with your breast measurements (especially your base diameter of your breast). 330 cc silicone implant under the muscle is not a really large implant so it might just be the appropriate size for you. Either way, no one can really answer this question without at least photos or better yet an exam. Best wishes to... more

How to pick correct implant size

This is one of the more commonly asked questions regarding breast implant surgery. There are a number of different methods to choose proper implant size, including placing an implant inside the bra, specialized “prosthesis” sizing methods, etc. The same implant size will have different shape and size in two different patients, due to variability of pre-operative anatomy of individual patient. In my practice I found that the most accurate way to create the breast... more

Will a 330 Silicone Implant Give Me a Full B Cup?

That implant will look different on each patient for whom it is used. The implant has only a little to do with the final cup size which is determined by rib circumference, muscle thickness and quality, volume and shape of the breast tissue and skin quality. The esamining doctor can give you a better idea.

Cup size after breast augmentation

This is an extremely common question, but it is very tough to answer for several reasons. First, cup sizing is not uniform among bra manufacturers or between bra styles. A B-cup in one store may be an A- cup or C-cup at a different store. Many of my patients tell me they own different size bras that all fit. Also, the same size implant will create different sized breasts in different women. It depends on how much breast tissue you start with, the placement of... more

Will a 330 Silicone Implant Give Me a Full B Cup?

There are no uniformly accepted standards for determining cup size. Your idea of a small C may be quite different from your surgeons, from mine, and from the bra manufacturers. I find it useful for patients to try on implants. It is not an exact science but shows you on your own body about what a given size will look like. (The implants look a little bigger on top of the breast than when they are surgically placed.) Sounds like you might need another appointment with your... more

Best Breast Implant to Achieve B Cup after Breast Augmentation?

Thank you for the question.  Unfortunately, no plastic surgeon is able to accurately predict what cup size you will end up wearing after breast augmentation with a certain size implant. I suggest that patients not base their communication of goals or satisfaction with the results of surgery on achieving a specific cup size. As you know, cup size varies depending on who makes the bra; therefore, discussing desired cup size may also be inaccurate. In my... more
