What Cc Should I Get to Have a Large C Small D? I Am 125lb with a 34B Now. (photo)

I went in for a consult April 10, 2012. I have wanted implants since I was in High school and now I'm 24 and have saved up to get it done. The nurse and Doctor were really nice and answered all of my questions but now I'm having second thoughts.. Is this normal?? I guess I'm nervous about if I will be satisfied with my decision or not.

Breast Augmentation with Breast Implants: High patient satisfaction.

Breast augmentation is a very common procedure in cosmetic plastic surgery. It is a very straightforward procedure when performed by the right plastic surgeon for the right patient. Anxiety before any plastic surgery procedure is normal, especially if this is something you have wanted for years. It is great that you waited to get breast implants because now you can make a decision about saline or silicone implants. Looking at your photos, you would be a candidate for a simple breast... more

Breast augmentation

Questioning surgery a bit is normal. It is normal to be nervous, but patients are usually very happy after breast augmentation.

Breast augmentation is worthwhile

Of course it is normal for you to be a little nervous before breast augmentation, but it sounds like you've thought about it for awhile and are doing your homework. Our in office consultation and examination provides specific recommendations and an opportunity to try on different sizers in your brassiere to help you visualize your result. Try not to focus on a cup size as much as a particular look and feel-in general, to go from a B to a small D you should consider sizes... more

What Cc Should I Get to Have a Large C Small D? I Am 125lb with a 34B Now.

Thanks for the posted photos. As for size it is a very personal decision but at least a 350 cc would be my minimum choice. Best to obtain a few in person consults or return to the first one again.

Anxiety prior to surgery and choosing the righ implants

You have two very distinct questions here. First, it is normal to be anxious prior to surgery. Take a moment to reflect on your motivations. If you are doing the surgery for the benefit of others, then you will need to reconsider having surgery. If you are doing the surgery for yourself, then you will need to meet with your surgeon to resolve any remaining questions before you proceed. Second, you can not focus on cup size as that varies considerably between companies and will... more

Implant size for cup increase

If you are a 34 B each 100 cc is 1 cup size change. A 200 cc implant would make you a D. While looking at your photographs, one concern I have is that your breasts are relatively far apart. You need a circumareola approach so that your nipples can be moved medially as well as placing the implant more medially to increase your cleavage. It is possible that if you just underwent implantation you may have too much separation between the two breasts and you would be... more

What is a C cup anyway?

I've been doing breast augmentations for 22 years, over 6000! During that time I've had countless women describe their breast size. I can tell you that there is no set size that a C or D is. This is because bra manufacturers LIE! Also, a C cup from a 32 bra is way smaller than a C cup from a "40". So what we do is just ask our patients to try on implants in a snug Tee shirt with a built in bra. When you like the look then you are done. Except that there is a... more

Picking the best implant size for you.

I help my patients select the correct size with two methods: 1. Dimensional planning and 2. A Gel Implant Sizing system Dimensional planning – The measurements of your chest wall are taken. Also, the breast dimensions including the height, width, and current dimensions of each breast form the basis of dimensional planning. Based on these measurements, the implant size is recommended. This will give you a unique breast implant that is suited for your body frame. Even your... more

Best Breast Implants for Me?

Thank you for the question. I would suggest that you NOT concentrate on achieving a specific cup size. As you know, breast cup sizes will vary depending on the bra manufacturer. It is therefore an unreliable measurement to base your communication on. I would suggest that you do the following: 1. Concentrate on choosing your plastic surgeon carefully. Concentrate on appropriate training, certification, and the ability of the plastic surgeon to achieve... more
