Large sized breast implants in a thin A cup individual

Please read my article about larger implants and their risks: There are numerous increased risks associated with this, and I am sure I will not even touch on half of them, but consider the following. The size of the implant has been associated with: 1.Increased risk of loss of nipple sensation 2.Increased risk for long term breast ptosis (sagging) 3.Increased risk for chest wall deformation (curving of the ribs) 4.Increased risk of rippling or palpable /visible... more

Breast implant sizing

The more breast surgery I do the more I realize that there is no correlation between the size or model (profile) of implant used and resulting cup size. This may have to do with several factors including: the amount of breast volume the patient starts with, the shape of the patient's chest wall (concave or convex), the type and model of breast implant selected (saline/silicone and low/moderate/high profile), bra manufacturer variance in cup sizes, the degree... more

How do you choose an implant size

Choosing a cup size is one of the most important decisions you can make when proceeding with breast enhancement.  And, depending on the personal aesthetics of both you and your surgeon, a variety of answers can be given.  First, I would agree that the photos you show are actually not a great result and show bottoming out.  This happens when the fold is adjusted too low (as compared to the original fold position) and the nipple to fold distance increases too much... more

Implant choice

Impant size selection for 'A' cup patients

First of all- the photo set you provided depicts a woman with implants that have bottomed out on both sides- this is bad result. Implant selection is based on the base width of your breast and the distance from the fold beneath the breast to the nipple- if you want to go high-volume, consider a high-profile implant.

How far can you go with an A cup?

The base width is just a starting point for determining breast implant size. At the very least, I would like to know the anterior stretch, in other words, how far anteriorly the areola can be pulled forward. If you have a tight envelope (stretch < 2cm) then I usually subtract volume from my estimatin of size. If the envelope is very lax (> 3 cm) then I add volume to the estimation. THe woman in the photos looks like she has a tight envleope, but of course you cant tell for sure... more
