Change depends on your chest circumference

Cup size varies with your chest circumference. For instance, if you are a size 30 or 32 then each 100 cc implant will correspond to 1 bra size increase. Therefore, 400 cc's would be 4 cup sizes larger, which would be a D. If you are a 34 or 36 then 400 cc's would correspond to 2 cup sizes larger. If you start with an A then would be a C. Where you begin will determine where you will end. C's or D's are not disproportioned or large... more

Is 400 cc too big for breast augmentation?

Without knowing your height, base diameter, and the quality of your tissue, I cannot answer this question for you. Photographs would help, but still, this question is best answered in the office during a consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon. Good Luck and best wishes.

400 cc implants

Without an exam , it is difficult to say but 400 cc's are fairly large and your frame may not be able to handle them if you are only 5 feet tall.

Breast Implant Size

Hello Baby02, How you look in terms of proportion is a very subjective thing, that is to say its only an opinion. Ours might differ from yours.

You should go to a reputable surgeon who will tell you what implant will be most appropriate for your body base on objective... more

Breast Augmentation and Size

400cc implants in a 100 pound frame....these implants will look very full in your body. This will be a considerable change and Dr. Leff is exactly right. It really depends on how much fullness you are after, especially in the upper part of your breasts.

These implants will look too big on a frame like yours.

What kind of look are you wanting? This size implant in someone as thin as you are, especially with little to no breast tissue, will look artificial and much too full. However, some women don't mind this kind of look, and may actually prefer it. The question you must answer before surgery is, do you want to look natural or very full and top-heavy?

Looking Natural with Breast Augmentation

With your measurements it is likely that any implant will be somewhat "visible" if you have no breast tissue, are very thin and likely have lost whatever volume you had from breast feeding. Without seing a photograph, it is impossible to tell but the smaller the implant, the "more natural" it will look. However, you do want to have some result from this procedure so you have to see this as a compromise - nothing is perfect in medicine. Have a consult with a... more
