I Was a Deflated Sm 36B Cup, Will 350cc Smooth Round Moderate Prof+Silicone Give Me C or D Cup?Answer:

You might be both!!!! Bras are so different and I tell my patients if you are a full C you will probably be a small D in Victoria’s Secret, as they run a little small in the upper sizes.. And there are so many variables like breast width to factor in…Trust your surgeon , but you can’t go wrong with either cup size. Both can be played up for a trip to Vegas, or put back in the garage on returning home and downplayed for a job interview or working at your kids school! more

Cup Size?

Unfortunately bra cup sizes are not consistent or standardized, just like any other clothing item or shoe sizes. The best and probably safest approach is to measure the width of your breast and select an implant that complements that size, rather than looking exclusively at " cc" volume.

Implant Size and Bra Size

The relationship between Bra size and implant size is very inexact. "Oprah" has stated that 50% of American women are wearing the wrong size bra, so we strive for the proper "breast size rather than a particular manufacturer's guess at Bra size. Having said that the average American implant size is 300-350cc. That size implant may fill your tissue out depending upon its elasticity. This is why it is important to consult an experienced surgeon who can... more

Breast Augment, cup size

I wish it was so simple as to say this many ccs will give that cup size. It is, however, a very complex relationship. My preference with patients is to have them tell me what cup size they would like (many don't know) and then I carefully explain that a cup size is not a real size but rather a relationship or proportion to the torso and not even bra manufacturers agree on what is a "C". Also, in any given manufacturer's line, a 32 D and a 34C are the same cup size on... more

Breast implant size/cup size?

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
