Breast Implants: Q&A

How Do I Decide on How Many Cc's and What Profile?
I have a consultation with a PS in two weeks. I would like to be a bit educated on sizing before I go in. What measurements do I need? My rib cage is 30" and I am a 34B or a 32A. I want to be either a full B or small C after my ba, but I want whatever size/profile fits my body and looks natural.

1) This is the most common type of question on RealSelf.

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 is to go too big.

One breast hard and the other soft
This is a very personal decision that you should discuss with the choice of surgeon. Try to go a liitle larger than you want so you can not say after surgery, "I wish I would have gone bigger!" Also I like the High Profile smooth rounds.

Decision Process involved in picking THE BEST Breast Implant FOR YOUI
