500cc Breast Implants to Achieve D Cup?

Hello, I am 5'9" tall and weighing 137 lbs. My chest is narrow and I am barely a 34B. I had my consultation yesterday and the doctor suggested 500cc to make me a D. I have been doing some research and I think this may be too large. Any comments? I want to be a Large C to a Small D in cup size.

500 cc is a lot and may leave you quite large. My average implant that I use is between 250-400 cc's for most patients.

Too large.

Hi! 500 cc breast implants are too large on almost any body, and they age very poorly. Your expectations seem very realistic, and you need implants between 300 cc's and 400 cc's. In Manhattan, we use disposable implant sizers in the operating room to make the final decision. That way there is no guess work.
