Approximate Cup Size for 339cc Breast Implants on B Cups?

Perhaps this may provide you with some insight. I find that if a woman wears a size 36 AB bra and would like to be a C cup, which is the average size that women wear and the average size bra that is sold, she needs a volume of approximately 350 to 390 cc to make that change. This becomes less if she's wearing a 34 bra, because it has a smaller strap size and the cups have a smaller diameter. A smaller diameter implant would then be a volume of approximately 300 to 350 cc. In the same way if she was more petite, maybe a double zero or size one and wore a 32 AB bra, then to become a 32C cup she would only require about 250 to 300 cc. This is a general number, and of course there are other factors that will affect this. Other factors which contribute to the outcome are size, shape, and profile. The #profile is determined by the amount of #projection versus roundness that the you desire, as well as the #size of the implant and size of your chest. Also, the placement or incision location will also have an effect on profile. Another element to a satisfying result of your #augmentation is realistic #expectations.Talk to your surgeon at greater length and be sure to view before and after pictures and reviews beforehand to gain more reassurance of the procedure.

Every woman’s
idea of cup size is different and, for this reason, most plastic surgeons
prefer other methods to determine breast size.Furthermore, cup size doesn’t easily translate into cc when determining
breast volume.In addition, no two
patients are ever alike.They have
unique anatomic findings and individual starting points and specific aesthetic
goals.In the absence of a physical
examination and pictures, it’s virtually impossible to make a specific
recommendation about implant size.For
these reasons, consultation with a Board-certified plastic surgeon is
appropriate.This surgeon should be able
to find the implant that creates harmony, balance, and proportion and
ultimately accomplishes your aesthetic goals.It’s also important to realize that
placement of the implant beneath the muscle probably won’t impact breast
size.However, it will have significant
long-term benefits, including a lowered rate of capsular contracture.

I find cup sizing very interesting and I explain to patients that cup size is based on the difference in the most projecting part of your breast and your chest wall. This is unpredicatble as womens skin are not predictable in terms of the way they react to implants. For instance I have put the same implants with woman who basically look ideal (height and weight) and have similar bra sizes to start and one went up two cups and one didnt change at all

It is very difficult to determine the exact size and shape of implant that will get you the results you desire without an examination by a board certified plastic surgeon. This is because several measurements not to mention your breast characteristics are needed to determine the optimal implant size to obtain your goals. Without knowing these dimensions it would be tough to answer your question. For example your native base width of your breast will determine in many cases the maximal volume per implant profile that you can accommodate. To illustrate a 100 cc difference may make a significant difference with a narrow base width, but much less of a difference if you have a wide chest wall and wide breast “foot print”. Additional critical decisions will also be made by your plastic surgeon such as: whether your implants will be above or below your pectoralis muscle. These choices are recommended to you based on the look you desire, the amount of sagging you may have, and other deciding factors. I always find it helpful for patients to bring in photos from my or other plastic surgeons’ websites to illustrate what they would like to look like. I bring these photos to the operating room for reference during surgery so that I have the advantage of “seeing through my patient’s eyes” to achieve their wishes.I personally order more than one set of implant sizes and use sterile sizers placed in the pocket during surgery to know in advance exactly which implant would work best for you. Software morphing programs can be helpful in some but not all cases (e.g. doesn't work well in my experience with existing implants, sagging or asymmetric breasts).My advice is to accept advice from your board certified plastic surgeon after a formal consultation and examination with measurements.. If still confused don't hesitate to get a second opinion.

The way I like to do breast augmentation is with sizers. I have a cup size or photo from the patient and then by using sizers I can see which implant will give the size my patient wants. Stuffing implants or rice bags under a bra is not an accurate way of determining implant size.
