Tags: breasts, female, 5 ft 4 in to 5 ft 7 in, 200-249cc, 250-299cc, breast size, C cup, D cup, implant size, moderate

I have McGhann subpec 410s anatomicals (mod proj) 240ccs, 11cm base, from 32AA to 32C, max size surgeon could insert due to BWD.

I am 5'5", 110lbs, size 8. Is there a difference in cup size between anatomicals and the same volume in Full projection round?

Anatomical or round breast implants

The enlargement should be a natural enhancement of the size of the breast. Each breast will have a unique characteristic or personality which can be easily filled with a round implant or 'neutral' implant. The... more

Anatomical implants are not always more anatomical

It's really hard to know where to start with your questions, but part of the issue seems to be that the "anatomical" implants are not really anatomical in the sense of creating a natural breast shape, at least in your case. One possibility for the difference between the two breasts would be a capsular contracture on one side, but I would need more information in order to determine that. Another issue is the unreliability of the cup size system, so there is no good way to... more

Effects of different breast implants

Really, you are asking a very complicated question and with no exam or photos it is not possible to answer it. You should seek the opinion of the best breast surgeons in your area and ask them what can be done. Also, please realize that your own body and its asymmetries may make it impossible to do better than what you already have.
