Will 325-350CC Will Give Me a Full C Cup?

Question viewed 364 times
Tags: implant size

I'm looking to be a full C cup and was wondering if 325-350CC will give me that size? I'm 5'4, and weigh 129lbs. with a 34-36A cup. My concern is that I don't want to spend lots of $ and be dissapointed that they are not big enough, yet at the same time, I don't want them to be too big. I have 4 kids so the doctor said that may be to my benefit b/c of the elasticity.

Will 325-350CC Will Give Me a Full C Cup?

It is very easy to be confused by this measuring system. Cup sizes are only used as estimates for clothing. Although the measuring technique for determining cup size is precise, the results of these measurements are not. Let me give you an example; weight is a very accurate measurement. However two patients that weigh 120 lbs are not likely to look alike. The same is true with two patients that have C cup breasts. This is why physicians tend to use volume (cubic centimeters or cc) as a... more

Implant size

You are probably in theball park of what you want. You may want to perform a baggy test with the volume that you desire to see if you like the volume

Choosing an implant size

Without photos or an examination, it is hard to say what would be right for you. Everyone's body anatomy is different and a 350 cc implant in you will look very different in someone else. For this reason, it's best to consult with several surgeons and make a decision that both you and your surgeon are comfortable with.

How to get a full C breast augmentation

As already mentioned, bra manufacturers determine what is a C cup for their brand.  Although I have resisted the notion of talking about cup size, it is such a common question that some sort of estimation would be helpful for the preoperative patient.  One approach is to buy a C cup bra in the brand you would normally wear.  Using either implant sizers in the doctors office or something that will hold water such as a Ziploc bag or large balloon, one can stuff the bra with... more

That should do it

The 325-350cc implant size that you have in mind should indeed give you a full C cup breast.  In practice I sit my patients up during their operation with a breast sizer in place to determine the size implant needed to achieve their goal.  At your height and weight that size should be perfect.  Be careful though, after that many pregnancies you may need a breast lift as well.  Good luck! see video

Choosing the Ideal Implant - A "Full C"

Nearly every woman that comes into the office wants to be a "full C" but cup size is NOT a scientific measurement.  Victoria's Secret will "up-size" their bras to sell more making you think that your breast are bigger.  The key with sizing is communication with your surgeon through sizing, photos and any other means possible.  It will always be somewhat of a guess. Every woman wants to be big enough, but not too big.  But most women will... more

Implants and Cup Size Do NOT Correspond With Each Other

Based on your height and starting breast size, a 325cc-350cc implant should put you in the C range, but there is no real way to know until afterwards.  That same size implant on you may be a DD on some women and a B on another.  The reason is that eveyone is different with regards to their breast shape, chest shape, height, weight, shoulder width, etc.  It is always hard to know exactly what size to go, but I always ask my patients to err on the larger side, since 90%... more
