I recommend you discuss with your plastic surgeon your desired goal rather than going with a preconceived notion of what size you need. Best of Luck, Gary Horndeski, M.D.

This helps eliminate prejudices from looking at pictures on the Web or knowing a friend's size. Too large an implant can make you look overweight and lead to more complications. Too large an implant can look less natural. too small an... more

Best Breast Implant Size for Me?

Thank you for the question. There are many variables involved in determining the best breast implant size/profile to achieve a specific patient's goals. Online consultation unfortunately cannot provide you with a precise answer. I would suggest that you concentrate on achieving a certain “look”, not a specific cup size, with your breast augmentation surgery. Communicate your goals with your plastic surgeon ( I prefer the use of goal pictures) and ask... more
