Breast Augmentation: Q&A
Ask a QuestionI'm 4'11", 90 Lbs, and Wear 32A Bra. Are 270 Cc's Enough to Give Me a Nice Full "C" Look?
I'm 4'11", 90 lbs, and wear 32A bra. Are 270 cc's enough to give me a nice full "C" look. I will be going under the muscle. I want my implants to look good on my frame, but I'm also worried about going to small and wishing I went bigger. I don't want to look too big for my frame, but for the money I'm spending I do want to notice a difference. I want to fill out my tops better and have something to show off in a bikini top. The idea is to look good and classy, not trashy. Any advice? Thanks.

Breast implant size
You are quite petite and thin and I would not go too big on you, but 270cc may not give you the full C look. Also silicone would be more appropriate and give you less chance of gaving wrinkling and rippling. Just make sure you and your surgeon are on the same page as far as what you are looking for and desire.

Breast implant sizing/type
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...

Implant vs breast size
The volume 270cc seems like an appropriate size for a woman of your size. However, the implants do come in various projections and diameters, which can change appearance. Also the amount of breast tissue you begin with will play a role in the final size and shape. Your surgeon may have sample sizes to try on and get an idea of projection. Good luck.

Try implants in a bra
I have found one of the best ways to get the right cup size is to try temporary sizer implants on in a bra. That will give you a very good idea of what the final cup size will be.

Implant choice
Am exam is worth a million words. Without the exam it is difficult to say what would be best for you. You also looke like you have a bit of a sag on the left side and may need a circumareola lift on that side. Choosing the right implants for you is a long discussion in the office.

Implant size to get a "Full C"
Bra sizes are confusing. More often than not, a woman is not wearing a correctly fitted bra, doesn't know her bra size, or doesn't know how a bra is fitted.
Cup size is dependent on the "number" part of the bra size... a D cup in a 34 bra is a different size from a 42 bra.
That being said, bra manufacturers are not held to any uniform standards when it comes to cup size and shape... that is why one brand of bra might fit you very well for a given size, but not...

Your surgeon has picked the right size for you
You have very limited amount of breast tissue to cover the implant and give you good result. You concerns about the size should be balanced with the concerns about the long term result and beauty of the final result. 270 is a good balance

Treatment of asymmetric breasts
To get an optimal result there is more to it than just the implant size. The implant's dimensions are equally important. The implant base width needs to fit the torso and breast size. In your case there is significant right left asymmetry. The left breast hangs lower than the right and has a narrower base width. If you do a symmetric procedure such as just putting implants in on each side you will continue to have asymmetry and could magnify it.
Before having the surgery you should...

Breast implant size
A 270 breast implant is about right for your body frame. This will probably give you a C cup. I think the decision to go under the muscle is also good. Your left nipple looks lower than the right side so it will also be lower after surgery as well.
thanks for the question,

The 270 cc breast implant is a nice place to start
The 270 cc breast implant may be just the one for your chest and breast size to get you to a small C-cup, natural and tasteful. The real test of size usually come at the time of surgery. Let your surgeon know how you wish to look, use photos as examples, and let him choose the correct implant as his experience should far surpass yours. Unfortunately placing an implant into a bra can give you an idea of a fuller look, but you cannot 'read the number' and expect the implant to look the...
