What size cup will I be

I think one of the things that makes patients become confused is actually the posting on websites of before and after pictures with the size implants used. There are many variations from one patient to another, including original breast volume, laxity of the tissue, angle of the ribcage, shape of implant used, and others. Although one can guestimate at what the appearance will be cup size a breast augmentation, it is almost impossible. That is also because the maker of bras will use... more

Breast implant sizing/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

600 cc implants

Just guessing based on the stats you provide, with an 85 cm/33 inch chest, I think 600 cc is awfully large. Anything larger than 400 cc in a patient of your size is just too large. You will likely go up 2 or more cup sizes with 400 cc, and you will look somewhat unnatural. 400 cc is already large and uncomfortable. If you need a lift then the size of the implant which can be placed is limited, and 400 cc might be too large for your tissues to handle. Good luck! more

Size of breast implant

I am afraid it is not possible to comment on what is the correct operation for you (implants only, or implant and an uplift); let alone size of the implant - without examining you or, at least, some photographs. From your description, you may be a candidate for an uplift and a smaller implant. Please post some photos if you want some meaningful suggestions.

Can I have 600cc implants?

Dear Jods, Your question is hard to answer in this format with the amount of information you provided and without photos. It's impossible to tell if you will need a breast lift along with implants, which I take into account when discussing size. Following 3 pregnancies and your description of "sagging", it is likely that you may benefit from a lift. A lot depends on how much breast tissue and fat you have now as well as the... more

Breast implants will not lift saggy breasts

Dear Jods, There is a huge misconception that implants lift breasts. They don't. Without looking at pictures, it is virtually impossible to give you the best advise. Please consider re-submitting question with photos. Sounds like what you need is a breast lift more than anything. Best wishes, Dr. H
