Tags: age 18-24, 110-129 lbs, 5 ft 0 in to 5 ft 3 in, A cup, AA cup, petite

I'm a small person, age20, 5', 110lb. My bra size is literally smaller than a AA. I don't want to be big, I just want something.A little pad, maybe a bit of cleavage.I dance and am active and don't want big jugs in my way, but I am tired of looking like a boy.A cup implants or a small B? Or some other procedure?It seems like everyone talks like C cup is the bare minimum but I cannot see myself with those. I'd like to avoid surgery altogether; even wonder if I might still grow a bit. Best option?

Get the Size Implants That Please You!

You definitely can get the size that pleases you! Other people's idea of what may be "worth it" are irrelevant: Cosmetic surgery is not a democratic process: your vote is the only one that matters! During your consultation, take time wit trying on different size implants. You'll know the right size for you when you see it. Choose the size that helps you fill out a bra or a blouse the way that pleases you. If your surgeon will let you, ask to wear the... more

Using small implants

Breast implants come in a range of sizes with the smallest implants being 125cc for saline and 100cc for silicone. Whether you will remain an a cup depends on your body size and amount of existing breast tissue. But the real question is "do you really want to stay only an A cup". Usually at least a B cup is required to give you a little fullness to hold up your tops.

Smaller breast implants

You are a smaller framed person and I am sure you do not want to be overwhelmed with large breasts. My key to fitting an implant for a particular patient is measuring the diameter of the breast and trying to approximate that with a similar diameter implant. This will probably give you a larger implant than you were originally planning on. After the measurement we try on some implants and see what you are comfortable with. Ultimately it is all about your vision of... more

Breast implants are available in all shapes and sizes: from a small 'A' to multiple 'D's!

Many women seeking breast augmentation want a dramatic change in the size and shape of their breasts. However, other women only want a subtle, natural result - i.e. the effect of the padding they wear in their bra, but without the need for padding! Implant manufacturers make breast implants in a variety of shapes and sizes - from as small as 50 cc volume up to 800 cc and sometimes larger! Breast implants also have different "profiles" or degrees of projection, from low,... more

Breast implant size and cup size

Breast implant volumes are measured in cc's, not cup size. I suggest you have a consultation with a plastic surgeon who lets patients try sizers during the visit. This way you can find a size that satisfies your goals. As long as you like the new size of your breasts with the implants you have chosen, the bra cup size becomes a non-issue.

How to pick an implant size for breast augmentation

In our office, we have patients try implants with a bra in front of the mirror. The size of the implant is chosen based on the physical exam, the amount of breast tissue and skin available. With this technique, assuming you are honest with yourself, patients are very pleased with their final size. There are many types of implants, and you should be able to find one which is "conservative" . see video

You can have breast augmentation to an A cup

It seems to us too that everything concerning breast augmentation on the Internet involves a very full, C or better breast augmentation. The results are quite showy, however they do represent other patients choices, and may not reflect your own. Many patients will indeed seek breast augmentation to a small B cup, some may wish to fit a full A and this can produce a pleasing result that fits your lifestyle and who you are. The challenge is finding a surgeon who is sensitive to your goals and... more

Small breast implants should work well.

Hi. There is no problem going up just one cup size with breast augmentation. My guess is you need about 125 cc or 150 cc implants. But you do need surgery.

Non-surgical breast augmentation, enhancement, enlargement without implants

Yes, there is no doubt that some weight gain may produce a subtle increase in breast size. Your options for a small increase in breast size using a non-surgical approach include the possibility of a small increase with weight gain and/or hormone therapy with oral contraceptives and/or BRAVA device and/or fat grafting.

Breast implants to fit you

From your description you sound like a very petite woman with limited breast tissue. I believe that using a small implant could get you the results you are looking for. Going from a AA to a A is not a very big difference. Consider the difference in one cup size. If you are mostly happy with your breast size, then consider the pros and cons of having surgery. Breast implants will make a substantial difference, one most women welcome. Talk with your surgeon about your expected results and... more

Breast implant choices

The only way to discuss with you what would be best for you is to evaluate you in person and select an implant that fits your frame.

Steven Wallach, MD

Small Breast Implants

Without photos or an examination, it is hard to say what would be right for you. Everyone's body anatomy is different and a 125 cc implant in you will look very different in someone else. For this reason, it's best to consult with several surgeons and make a decision that both you and your surgeon are comfortable with.

A cup implants

Maybe if you have some fat areas try a fat transfer to the breasts. But yes there are 100 cc implants available from the implant companies. Seek 3 boarded PS in your area. From MIAMI Dr. B

Small breast implants

At your age, you might still grow a little. Also, if your weight went up a little, there might be some increase in your breast size. If neither of these happens, a moderate profile (the most conservative) gel implant of appropriate width for your chest wall will look good. Don't go too narrow or there will be an unattractive gap in the middle between the implants.
