Larger implants

Be careful what you wish for, because in the long run it may bite you back. Very larger implants are more than likley not going to be size appropriate for your frame and will cause early sagging fromt he increased weight.

Large Breast Implants

It really depends on the anatomy and how wide your breasts are. It also means that you would have to go with high profile implants. So if you like the look of high profile breast implants then it may be possible given your anatomy. The best way to determine how big you go would be with a good exam. Make sure your surgeon is board certified Plastic Surgeon. Take care.

Size 32B to 32DD depends on your breast anatomy

Going from a 32B to 32DD may be possible depending on your breast anatomy. If you have enough skin laxity to accommodate a large implant, then going to a 32DD might be possible for you. You also must consider how you will look with larger implants. I tell my patients that they may look good in clothes however, if their skin is too tight, they may not like the way they look without clothes. Also keep in mind that over time, your skin may become stretched out with to large an implant causing... more

Breast implant sizing

The goal of breast augmentation is to provide you with an implant that fills your soft tissue without stretching it too much. Because cup sizing varies so much from one manufacturer to the next, it's hard to say if a D or DD would be too large. I would recommend that you see a plastic surgeon for an examination, at which time you can be measured and the optimal size for your tissues can be determined. This may be smaller than what you are looking for, but it will provide you with an idea of... more

Would DD implants be too large for me?

Hi there- You should try to stick to a goal that will look natural (if a bit large) on your body. When women have implants placed that are significantly out of proportion with their frame, the look doesn't age well, and especially in petite women like yourself the large implants make them look heavy and matronly. Not to mention the fact that larger implants are also heavier implants, and so will cause a lot more thinning of your skin and tissues over time- almost committing you to breast... more

32D to 32DD breast implants

Without photos and more history it is almost impossible to guide you in the implant size direction. Yes, it is possible to use that size of implant. But is it too big for you, I cannot say. Go see 3 boarded plastic surgeons in your area. Regards from Miami.

32B to 32DD breasts

At 5'2" and 100 pounds, you likely have a very narrow frame. The base diameter of an implant that fits you properly, even a HP implant may not give you a DD result even if you wanted one. Besides that, too large an implant will have some long term consequences that you might well regret.

Excessively large breast implants may be associated with higher rate of complications

Without an examination, It is my opinion that given your heght and weight, it is very likely that this will be too large of a change and could lead to an increased risk of complications.

Going from 32B to 32 DD - 32DD is most likely too big

Is going from 32B to 32 DD - 32DD Too Big? Most likely - yes. The quality and naturalness of a Breast Augmentation depends on multiple factors but especially a matching of an implant to the woman's presenting circumstances. Most importantly, the current breast tissue SHOULD be covering the proposed implant and the proposed implant needs to be able to stay on the front - flat part of the chest without falling sideways. Other considerations involve the elasticity / stretchability of your... more
