How big
This is always a big question.The less tissue a patient has the smaller the implant.At the end of the op[eration the surgeon needs to be able to close the incision.So 40 may be fien.After the pocket is made the surgeon can add 400 and see.0

400cc Fake Look
In my experience, based on your height and weight you will happier with the 400cc implants. That is just my opinion after hearing women saying they wish they were larger for almost 20 years. However, I never choose size for my patients. I offer them implant sizers to try on and 3D imaging. I caution you about going much larger than that though. You want them to look good for years to come not just immediately after surgery.

Implant size selection
Recommending implant sizes for you depends on multiple factors. Selecting an implant size is dependent on patients' anatomy (height, weight, chest width, chest height) as well as patients' wishes. It is hard to give you a recommendation without examining you. You should try some sizers and talk with your plastic surgeon. Please remember that implant cc volume does not correlate with cup sizes. Also, try to look at pre and postop photos that reflect your body size and...

Size and look
The breast implant size is one factor that determines the "look" but other factors are your current breast size and shape. I find that when my patients try on the sizers in my office they have a better idea of the kind of look they want and help to decide on the size.

What size Breast Implants?
Without a picture or and examination, it is hard to say what size implants would give you the result you are looking for. The best thing to do is to be very direct with your plastic surgeon about what size you would like to achieve. From there he/she will decide what size implant will bring that result.

#BreastAugmentation and 400 cc Implants
There is no way to know what the difference will be between the implants without a photo or exam. In short, be clear with your plastic surgeon as to what look you wan to achieve and trust in their judgement. Photos can be very helpful in this process.
Best of luck,

Breast augmentation and cup size
Implants do not match up directly with a specific cup size because no two individuals are the same and the bra companies are not standardized and make different volumes for cups. It also depends upon what volume of breast you started with.

Breast augmentation and cup size
No one can tell you exactly what cup size you will be because cup sizes are subjective and vary my clothing designers - its not standardized. 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...

Give me a fake look after breast augmentation
Of course we cannot judge if 400cc will indeed give you a fake look, and whether you want a fake look or wish to avoid one, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. The 'look' you are after is a personal decision that you should be free to make, however for we as surgeon to get it right, seeing is understanding. Show your surgeon just what you wish the ideal you to be like. Looks are everything and cup size can be deceiving.

Choosing Breast Implant Size for "Fake" Look?
As you can imagine, it is not possible to give you precise advice without direct examination and a full communication of your goals. Based on your body type, careful communication of your goals will be very important; I would suggest that you do not base this communication ( or your satisfaction with the results of surgery) on a specific cup size. Goal pictures and an emphasis on achieving a “proportionate” (given your height and weight) result may be helpful.
