I am a 29 year old woman with no children and have been thinking of having BA for a very long time. I have extremely small breasts (not being dramatic, its just a fact) and am concerned that if I look to my desired size (B-C) from my current size (AA) that the results will not look natural. What type of implant will result in the most natural, and un-basketball-y, result. I'd like my breasts to look like breasts and not coconuts :).

Natural Looking breast augmentation.

Any reputable surgeon will caution you against augmenting your breasts greater than your body will accommodate from an aesthetic view point. For example, I would not implant 700 cc implants into a very petite woman. The type and size of the implant very much depends on your body type and size. So, yes, you can have a beautiful natural look.

Pick an implant that fits the shape and curve of the rest of your body to be proportional

Thank you for your question. The most natural look would come from a modestly projected silicone implant to minimize the change of rippling which if you are very thin, you will have some. Also, as long as you choose an implant that is in proportion with the shapes and curves of the rest of your body then it will have a tendency to look natural. If you don't have hips, then don' t go with a large implant because it may look out of proportion. To be sure, see two or... more

Natural Looking Breast Implants

I see many women in my practice with very small breast prior to surgery. Women with almost no breast tissue can - and should have a natural look with breast augmentation. A silicone gel implant's more natural feel will be much more important to patients who are slender and who fit in an A cup bra preoperatively, as they have less subcutaneous soft tissue and breast tissue to conceal the implant. I view breast augmentation as more than a breast enhancement surgery. It is a total... more

Concern regarding about naturalness of a breast augmentation when starting with a AA cup size

Given your AA cup size, there will be inherent limitations as to what natural really is. In clothes you can look natural. Out of clothes you still can look very good but you will have less tissue to camouflage the implant compared to someone who has some breast tissue and fat. (Photos could be helpful.) You definitely need to select silicone breast implants and have them placed behind the muscle (submuscular pocket). It would be prudent to stay a little smaller rather than a little... more

Natural Looking Breast Implants

I think that it is very possible for you to obtain a naturally result with augmentation if you select an implant which is not too large for your breast and is placed under your chest muscle. I would also suggest that you choose a silicone implant which is more likely than a saline implant to give a natural appearance.

Appearance of Breasts After Augmentation

Your result will look like the shape of the implants, so rounder and youthful. The final look depends a great deal on the look of the breast tissue over the implants. Silicone will seem more natural to you than saline implants due to its consistency.

Can implants give a natural look in someone with AA cup size?

The short answer is no. You do not state how tall you are and what is your weight. Small submuscular gel implants (180-225cc range) will not give you "coconuts", but you will have a rounder, augmented look. Another option might be fat injection breast augmentation. Depending how much fat you have to do this procedure, it might take 2-3 sessions to achieve the desired result.

Breast Augmentation and “Natural” Results?

Thank you for the question. Generally speaking, for patients with your small frame I would suggest silicone gel breast implants placed in the sub muscular (dual plane) position. Selection of your plastic surgeon will be important; to make sure you do your due diligence and pick a plastic surgeon who can show you lots of examples of his/her work. Then, you will need to communicate clearly what your goals are given that “natural” or “coconuts” means... more

SALINE VS GEL

Since you have very little of your own tissue to cover the implant, your breasts will take on the shape of the implant. This means they will appear more round. In someone like you, I would recommend gel implants placed under the muscle. Without photos I am unable to recommend a size. Remember the smaller you go the more natural you will look.
