In Order to Be a Full B Cup, Will 275 CC's Get the Size I Want?

A week away from surgery and still torn. I am 5'3 1/2 115lbs, size 32A or 34A, not filling the bra up. My weight varies because I workout and do the bikini side of bodybuilding. So when I am not in training my weight drops to about 110lbs, in training 115lbs. My PS said that he could go up to 300cc's but right now I am torn between 275 and 300. I was able to take home 275cc's and wear for a few days. I really liked the looked. Would 300 or 275 big enough to get my full B?

Choosing a cup size.

In most cases a small D is 440 cc. A small B+ is 330 cc. Therefore, if you are close, I would would guess that you would be more like a small C.

Choosing Between 275cc and 300cc Breast Implants

The interpretation of bra cup size is highly variable and varies amongst patients. But with your small body frame and modest size increase desires (full B cup), implants of 275cc to 300cc seems appropriate for your goals. When in doubt between implant sizes that are only 25cc difference, always go with the larger size. This volume difference is negligible and will not make enough of a difference to account for just the right size and one that is too big.

Choosing the Right Breast Implant

Hello. The size of the implant depends on your height, weight, and the width of the thorax, as well as the thickness of your skin. It is difficult to give an accurate answer without an examination. Your plastic surgeon will be able to help you with this decision, as he/she will be choosing the size of your implants during surgery.

What is the right size?

There is very little difference between the two sizes, but I would go with the larger. Four to six months after surgery the pressure of the implant will cause your normal breast tissue to thin out a little. You will then end up slightly smaller. I always tell patients to go a little larger than they want, knowing they will get smaller later. Rarely do I have patients who think they are too large after surgery, but all the time I hear regrets that they didn't go big enough. A 275cc... more

Best Breast Implant Size for Me?

You will find that there is minimal difference between the 2 breast implant sizes that you are contemplating. In my opinion, additional communication with your plastic surgeon is the best way to go. you may want to leave it up to him to choose the best breast implant size based on this communication and your specific measurements. I prefer to have a full range of breast implant sizes/profiles available for use in the operating room. After clearing... more

No difference from 25 cc's in implants

There is really no difference between a 275 and a 300 cc breast implant as long as they are of the same profile style. Go with whichever you feel more comfortable. The 300's will get a little closer in the middle as they are slightly wider. Ask your doctor to help you finalize this.
