Choosing Breast Implant Size Must Consider Numerous Anatomic Factors

Just based on your description, single photograph and breast base width measurement, you are in the ballpark of between 450cc to 500cc using a high profile silicone gel implant. Your thin skin will do better with a gel implant rather than saline to decrease rippling. A high profile implant will help give you your desired overall round breast shape. You have the height for this size of an implant, which with your thin frame, can make a D cup quite easily. This will give you some idea as... more

Breast implant sizing

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

Size and profile

The question is really what do you want to look like. In your description, you asked for a "round, natural" result. When consulting with a patient we always like to view pictures of what the patient desires because in my experience, a round result is very different from a natural result. Rather than picking a particular implant size and profile prior to the procedure, I would rather find out what the patient wants to look like and then during the procedure pick the... more

Get sized by a board certified plastic surgeon.

Size is a complex decision that is not only based upon your height, weight and current cup/bra size but ALSO on also on your breast diameter, waist, shoulder, and skin envelope measurements. These can only be assessed in person during a consultation. Schedule a consultation and get advice from a board certified plastic surgeon. see video

Implant choices

Choosing the right implant for you is a lengthy discussion and exam performed by your surgeon. An agreement and rought size range should be discussed with your surgeon. Ofteen my patients are very narrow and the HP's or moderate plus are best for them.

Selection of Your Implant Size

If you are seeking a D cup result, after an physical examination, I would likely recommend a high profile silicone gel implant. Part of your evaluation would include assessing the anatomy of your chest wall. I consider two factors when selecting implants for my patients: 1. Dimensional planning 2. Gel Implant Sizing system Dimensional planning – The measurements of your chest wall are taken. Also, the breast dimensions including the height, width, and current... more

What breast implant to use?

Based on what you desire, a silicone gel implant around 400cc may be a starting point for discussion with a Board Certified plastic surgeon. However, you want a "small D with upper pole" but a "round natural look". These may be somewhat opposing goals.

Breast implant size suggestions

You look to have good tissue in the breasts for an augmentation but also to be exceptionally thin which makes it a little harder. Your stated goals cannot all be met as a D with upper pole fullness and roundness are not "natural." Therefore, you need to be very visually specific with the doctor and with you they will guide you toward the right implant for your body and your starting point. Forget the cup size also, just go for the desired "look."... more

Breast Implant Sizes

You appear to be a good candidate for augmentation from the limited view on your photo. Even though you provided a good bit of information (BWD, height, weight, etc.), I still feel that it is important for your try on implants with the input of a BC plastic surgeon. Again there is no uniform 34D cup size and no one can give you the info you requested accurately.
