Which Breast Size Will Suit me Best?

I am a 30 yr. old mom with 3 breast fed kids. I am 5'7" and 125 lbs. Breast circumference is 13cm. Slight sag, but nipples are still above the fold. I am looking for a more natural C cup look. I was told by one Dr. that Mid Profile 334-371cc would give me shape, fill, and still look natural. The other Dr. thinks that High Profile 401-440cc would look best. BOTH Dr.'s want to do a Dual Plane. I am choosing Silicone. I personally don't like the High Profile look so I'm quite confused.

What size implant?

The implant must be matched to your breast and body. Measurements of the breast dimensions help guide thoughtful surgeons in directing you and choosing an appropriate size implant. I try to avoid discussing cup size, it is arbitrary and too subjective. I have every patient of mine bring in photographs as examples of their desired result. This visual, plus measurements, are what I use to help the patient select implant size. Based on the information you provided, your range... more

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... more

Choosing an Implant Size

Given the amount of sagging that you have after breast feeding your children is mild, you are fortunate to be able to get fuller shaped breasts with implants alone and able to avoid having a breast lift. Because you want natural looking breasts, you are likely to get a great result. It appears that two separate plastic surgeons have given you very similar opinions with slight differences in terms of the profile and size of the implant. Some plastic surgeons'... more

Picking the implant size for you.

I consider two factors when selecting implants for my patients: 1.Dimensional planning 2.Gel Implant Sizing system Dimensional planning – The measurements of your chest wall are taken. Also, the breast dimensions including the height, width, and current dimensions of each breast form the basis of dimensional planning. Based on these measurements, the implant size is recommended. This will give you a unique breast implant that is suited for your body frame. Even your fitness... more
