How Much Weight Do Breast Implants Add?

To answer this question, I'd need to know what size implants you are getting and whether they were saline or silicone gel. You can do the math like this:1. Add the numbers of ccs in your right and left implants.2. If you have saline implants, multiply the resulting number by .0325 (the weight of one ounce of saline). If they are silicone, multiply by .0375. 3. Add 1.5 (the weight of the 2 implant shells in ounces).4. Divide by 16 (to convert from ounces to pounds).This is when you are glad you paid attention in high school math! As an example, if you have 400 cc saline implants, they would add 1.72 pounds to your body.

We would have to know what cc implants you would be getting to tell you an accurate weight, however the calculations are simple.1000 cc is 2.2 pounds.  Therefore, a 500 cc implant is roughtly 1 pound.  A pair would then be a little over 2 pounds.It really is less weight that you would imagine, but over time, 2 pounds can have a toll on your chest wall and neck, depending on how much you support your breasts after the procedure (i.e. wearing a good supportive bra).Hope that helps.

It's a great question. Implants are measured in cubic centimeters (cc's). If you know the implant volume that you desire, then multiply it by two to account for both implants. Take the total volume and divide by 1000 and then multiply by 2.2 ((Total Volume)/1000 * 2.2) = Implant weight in pounds (lbs). Overall most women will get used to the weight of reasonably sized implants without any problem.

For Silicone implants 500 cc's is about a pound (so a pair of these would be about 2 pounds). Saline implants are only slightly heavier.

It’s not unusual for prospective
breast augmentation patients to worry about the weight of their new breast
implants. They worry that breast enlargement may create some of the symptoms
that are frequently associated with breast hypertrophy such as back and neck
pain.

The amount of weight gain that occurs following breast
augmentation is dependent upon the size of the breast implants utilized. In
general terms, one cc equals one gram and there are 454 grams in a pound.
Therefore, two 450 cc implants would result in a two pound weight gain.

Implants in this size range are easily tolerated by most
patients and aren’t associated with back or neck pain. This is especially true
when implants are placed beneath the muscle. Under these circumstances, the
muscle provides added support for the implant.
