age: 32 weight : 145 height: 5'6" bra size: 34B (I can't fill out a full B cup, I am actually between an A and a B) I would like to be a full D or small DD do you think this is possible with under the muscle silicone implants? One of my breasts is slightly smaller than the other and I'm not sure if I have tubular deformity or not. Any info or advice you can offer is much appreciated.

What implant size is good for me?

Thank you for the photos. these are the best set of photos I've seen on realself submitted by people. You do not have tuberuos breasts, but you have asymmetry. The right breast is slightly larger. As it was stared before, implant size is the most common question. Yes, I can make you a D, DD or even an F. The question is, is this right and how will it look in the long term? You need to see a board certified plastic surgeon in person for a consultation and examination. He or she can... more

You can be a D cup

Your photos do not show a tuberous breast shape, and with breast implants you can be a D-cup or even a small DD if you wish. Be sure to bring your ideas and photos, and perhaps a bra you wish to fit to your consultation so your surgeon can match the result you are looking for. Best of luck, peterejohnsonmd

Can I go from an A cup to a D cup breast size with augmentation.

This can certainly be achieved. A full consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon will help you decide in regards to implant size. I use the Vectra 3D system to help patients choose the right implant and to allow them to visualize the result prior to surgery.

D cup can be achieved with breast implants.

1) This is the most common type of question on RealSelf. 2) It is the surgeon's job to pick the right breast implants, not the patient's. Implant selection is really pretty technical. 3) Make sure your surgeon REALLY understands the look you want. Mentioning a cup size is not enough. Show your surgeon pictures of breasts you like. 4) Then your surgeon has to tell you if your chosen look is realistic for your anatomy. The most common mistake... more

Small cup to larger cup size considerations

Yes, it would be possible to go from an A/B cup to a D cup; a DD cup may be stretching it a bit; your body size is not large, and a D cup may look quite good. You can use different size implants to accomadate the difference in your breast sizes; however if you have a sigificant tubular breast" deformity, this may require several surgeries to correct. A consultation with a plastic surgeon would be very helpful in addressing these questions, and really necessary to fully... more

I Would Like to Be a D or Small DD Do You Think This is Possible?

It is possible but it is probably not the best idea! It appears as if you have glandular ptosis or pseudoptosis to me from the pictures although a physical exam is needed to confirm the diagnosis. It also looks like you have lost some volume and your breast have become hypo plastic. Some history about pregnancy if any and changes in your breast over time would be helpful. The reason to not go that big is due to your tissue characteristics which seem to be of small amount of breast tissue... more

Breast implant size/type?

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

It can certainly be achieved

I think you would be thrilled with the procedure and your size desire can certainly be achieved. Most surgeons use some sort of visualization technique. We use sizers, some use 3D, but in either instance - you'll have a good idea of what volume in cc's will achieve your desired results. In my experience, it's common for patients to wish they had "gone just a little bit bigger", so keep that in mind as well! Best of luck. I'm confident... more

Optimal Breast Implant Sizing

Optimal breast implant sizing can be determined with your surgeon. The factors include present breast size, breast measurements, breast skin envelope and patient desires. I would not be overly concerned with the bra size but more importantly the desired "look".
