I am 5'11, 135 pounds and I'm looking into a breast augmentation. I'm currently a B cup, and want to be a C cup. Can you help me with determining the cc's I need to acheive this look. I know that I want silicone implants under the muscle.

It's your surgeon's job to pick right breast implants for the look you want.

Hi. 1) This is such a common question that I wrote an article for RealSelf about picking breast implants. You can see it on my profile 2) Also, I hope you find the link below useful.

Cup size and implants

Breast implants and cup size can vary from individual to individual and from bra manufacturer to manufacturer. The best way to get "sized up" is to see a surgeon, get examined and measured and then go from there. After the exam, I suggest different volumes and shapes and usually have patients put that volume or variations of that volume in a bra to see what they like. Then we go from there.

I always tell patients to not get hung up on final cup sizing as this is a very inexact science. I would prefer that you define what "look" you want and then we'll choose the implant that will get you there. The final cup size that fits this "best look" just depends on how you like your bra to fit. Make sure your surgeon is listening to you!
