Will 550-650cc Breast Implants Give Me Porn Star Boobs?

I went to a consultation with a plastic surgeon. We tried on many breast implants and decided on two sizes, 550 cc and 650 cc in the other. I am a bigger girl, 5'6' and around 160 lbs. They looked good in the bra with a shirt on, but I'm just wondering, if they drop, will I have cleavage? Is that a good size for me because I'm bigger? Will that make me a D or a DD? I just want to make sure I'm not going to have "Porn Star" boobs. I was told average recovery time is 5-8 days. I'm still smoking, and the surgery is in 3 weeks.

Implants too Big

Average implant volume is somewhere between 300 and 400 ccs. So the volumes you are interested in are by definition "larger" than average. There are a couple of issues your plastic surgeon will need to attend to: 1) Submuscular placement 2) Support sutures 3) Post-operative management including massage, bra support (critical) and fold management Bring photos to your surgeon, have your surgeon perform accurate chest, breast and bra measurements. Give yourself at least one week to... more

Breast augmentation using large implants

5'6" is a good height to carry large breast implants. As long as the implants are placed submuscularly, you will have a nice natural sloped look depending on the placement. Remember that internally your anatomy is different and you may need a different number of cc's to achieve the look you want. I would suggest showing your plastic surgeon pictures of what look you would like to achieve. I would also suggest 1 week recovery after having a breast augmentation. That means no strenuous... more

Large Breast Implants

Yes, those are large breast implants. It really depends on your chest diameter and how much breast tissue you have to begin with. That will determine your ultimate bra size. If you are particularly wide, then a wider breast implant like a moderate profile will help fill in the cleavage area. But ultimately, what determines your cleavage is how close your breasts are now and your anatomy. Good luck.

Are my implants too large.

You have many concerns which are difficult to address adequately in an email. Seeing that you have been to a consultation with a plastic surgeon, I would rely primarily on her/his evaluation and recommendations. These are relatively large implants for the average augmentation but they may be proportionate for you. Generally the risk of complications may increase with increasing size.

550 or 600 cc implants

 Implants that are 550-600 cc's are quite large.  The larger the implant the more likely to have problems sooner down the road like sagging.

Avoid very large breast implants.

Hi! 1) In Manhattan, I have a pretty big experience with breast augmentation, and I can tell you that I have never used implants bigger than 500 cc's. I would strongly advise you not to get such large implants, which will look fake, stretch your tissues, and age badly. 2) Don't assume that the difference between your breasts is 100 cc's. It could be more or (more commonly) less. Your surgeon needs to put disposable implant SIZERS in your breasts during surgery to see exactly which... more
