Breast Implant Size and Resulting Cup Size?
Thank you for the question.
Unfortunately, despite myths to the contrary, there is no precise correlation between size of implant and resulting cup size.
It would be in your best interest to be examined by a well experienced board-certified plastic surgeon ( well versed with larger breast implants) to see if your goals are achievable.
In my practice, the use of photographs of “goal” pictures (and breasts that are too big or too small) is...

How large of implants are too large
I have found it is difficult, if not impossible to tell a woman how big her breast should be. This is personal and what is problematic for one person, is heaven to another.

I would reconsider the decision, but get advice from a certified surgeon in your area.
Best of luck,

Beware Of Extremely Large Implants
