Will Around 350CC High Profile Silicone Achieve a Full C or D with Me? (photo)

32C at the moment, 13 years ago I had a BA and PS said he would "fill the sag" with 450cc instead of a lift. I am 5'5 and 118 pounds 33 years old. I ended up with a saggy 34DD the first time, which I had removed 4 years ago because I never liked them. I am now going in for a lift, with a silicone BA. I want to achieve a full C cup, or D cup. I have been searching a lot online and one doctors D cup looks like another C cup and vice versa in the descriptions. I like the high pole cleavage look.

Will Around 350CC High Profile Silicone Achieve a Full C or D

Your comment is not surprising in that there are no fixed standards for cup size. Furthermore, a C cup on a 34 is larger that a C on the 32, smaller than a C on a 36. Rather than thinking in terms of cup size, try on some implants, and when you find a size that looks right, your surgeon can help pick the right size and profile (it may be slightly larger that the one you liked as a trial) to get you to your goal. Thanks for your question and for the posted photos. All the best... more

Cup size v Implant Size

Your observation is a good one. Cup size is tough to predict and can change depending upon where you shop. Choose an implant that approximates or is a little less than your BWD. Once you have decided on the appropriate BWD look at HP implants of that base width. You will look anatomically correct without being too wide.

Full C breast augmentation with lift

Try filling a stocking with 350cc of rice and placing that in your bra. This is a nice test that you can do in the privacy of your home to simulate the added volume of a breast augmentation. Once you find the volume that is appropriate, you'll know what volume to ask for.
