Are 500cc to 510cc breast implants too big for 34 Full C?

500cc breast implants are the size of 1/2 of a one liter bottle.  If you think about it in those terms you might realize how big they are.  If you're undergoing a significant breast lift in which a large amount of skin is to be removed than you will lose some size, maybe a cup but likely less... more

 As stated by previous responders, it is hard to render a judgement without an examination.  However, starting with 34 C breast, it appears that 500 cc implants are going to be quite drastic. When an implant is placed at the time of breast lift, the risk of nipple/areola complications is increased.... more

As Dr. Diaz said, none of us has seen you or examined you so it is hard to render any kind of judgment. I would suggest you ask your surgeon to let you try a 500 cc implant in a bra with a tight t-shirt over it. That should give you a ballpark idea of the kind of total volume you will be carrying on your chest... more

It is always impossible for a surgeon to definitively know what size implant would be good without examining the patient. Since we have not, and cannot, examine you, anything we write are only general words of advice. There are a few things we know for sure. First, 500 cc is very big for anyone of any height.... more

Adding an implant to a breast lift procedure will acheive two goals.Increasing breast size and volume and more importantly adding upper pole fullness to a flat breast. It is not uncommon to use an implant for this purpose. However, it is important to be careful with implant size. A 500cc implant will add an... more

Performing a breast lift and using large implants may force you to have additional surgery sooner rather than later. Without examining you, it is difficult to assess what would be size appropriate for you.

Without knowing any other facts about you such as height and weight it is hard to say.  Each individual has their own idea of what size is correct for themselves.  If you are already a C cup then adding a 500 cc implant may take you up almost 2 to 21/2 cup sizes.  If you are already requiring a... more

I commonly perform a breast lift with breast augmentation in the right patients. I have used implants as small as 300cc to 800cc. There is the argument that the larger the implant the greater the stress and strain on the tissues and the need for additional surgery in the future. I believe the key... more

Hi! Don't do it!  500 cc breast implants are too big for almost any woman.  Very large implants stretch your skin and age very badly.  300 cc's is probably safe and reasonable. It's fine to do a "lollipop" breast lift with implants.

First of all, I have no idea of how tall and big you are - that makes a difference in talking about implant sizes. If you are already a C 510s are quite big and will make you a lot larger - perhaps you won't even need a lift. It sounds like you need some education -- see another plastic surgeon and decide what... more
