A: Depends on frame and tissue

By Sam Speron, MD - Chicago Plastic Surgeon

Hi, Thank you for your question. It is difficult to say exactly how many cc's you would need to achieve a certain size without examining you. It all depends on your breast tissue and frame dimensions. Schedule a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon and discuss this as well as any other... more

A: breast implants and cup sizes

By Nina S. Naidu, MD - New York City Plastic Surgeon

Hi, everyone's already said this, but I'll say it again just to send the message home: as surgeons we cannot give a number of cc's to get you to a specific breast size. It depends on how much breast tissue you're starting with, and the width of your breasts. In addition, my idea of a D/DD may be... more

A: Breast Augmentation Sizing

By Farbod Esmailian, MD - Orange County Plastic Surgeon

This is a very difficult question to answer without any photos and measurements. Everyone is different and you just cant say that a 475 cc implant will be a DD or a D cup in you or anyone else. You need to go for the look you are going for rather a particular cup size. Besides you will go to... more

A: Breast implants and cup sizes.

By George J. Beraka, MD - Manhattan Plastic Surgeon

Hi! 1) First, I think you want to go too big. Very large breast implants stretch your skin, and age very badly. Most of our patients go up 2 cup sizes, and 3 cup sizes is the absolute maximum that I will do. 2) Implant size is determined by what you want, but also by the measurements of... more

A: Implants and cup size

By Steven Wallach, MD - Manhattan Plastic Surgeon

There is no one specific implant that will hit the nail on the head in terms of getting you into a D or DD cup. This will be dependent a bit on your body habitus( weight and height). The best thing to do is go for a consultation.

A: Implant size does not always predict sup size

By Richard Baxter, MD - Seattle Plastic Surgeon

Your question is one that we see at least twice a week on Real Self. The thing is, we are stuck with this inadequate language to describe breast size called the cup system, introduced by the Warner Bros. Corset Company in the 1930's, when social customs forbade a more accurate and direct measurement of the... more

A: Implants will give different sizes for different women

By Marcus L. Peterson, MD - St. George Plastic Surgeon

Hi Kristina, There is not one implant size that will automatically give you a D or DD. All of this is dependant on your height and weight and starting breast size and rib projection. I can give you a rough guess but I would recommend trying on different size implants to see how much it takes... more

A: Breast diameter important

By Michael A. Marschall, MD - Chicago Plastic Surgeon

From the information you provide, one could guess volumes, but the value of this would be in doubt. The best way to determine the needed volume is during an exam by the Plastic Surgeon. The breast base dimension is important and helps determine the implant diameter and volume. Just a note, going from an A... more

A: At lease 400cc breast implants for D cup

By David A. Dreyfuss, MD - Chicago Plastic Surgeon

It is always difficult to evaluate this question with an exam. I would depend upon your chest diameter and if you went with high or moderate profile implants. In general, with a moderate profile implant and your height and weight, you would need at least a 400cc implant to achieve a small D cup... more

A: Need to measure a few things for breast implants

By John P. Di Saia, MD - Orange County Plastic Surgeon

Hello, The diameter of your breasts/chest wall and a few other reference measurements are useful when trying to size you for breast implants. Implant shape is also important as you might want more profile to get your cup size increased. These are things to discuss with your surgeon when you go to consultation.
