Am I Being Realalistic?

Ok I just want to know vif I have realalistic expectations of what COULD be done. It is so hard to look at pictures and say "Thats what I want to look like" because no two people are alike. so with that said is this reasonable to expect for ME. 5'4" tall 128 lbs wear a 36C.. BWD is 4.5" measuring at home myself 9- 9.25 droop want upper fullness NOT boulders in a tubesock!!so maybe 300- 375cc.. A FULL C or a D I think would look very nice?!!!????

Breast lift and augmentation expectations

You have dewcribed very nicely what you want. I think it can be achieved but in my opinion you have enough lower pole skin laxity in a horizontal direction that a periareolar mastopexy alone won't give you a nice shape.

Your expectations do seem realistic!

I think you can achieve the results you describe. As you mentioned, no two people are alike and the final result depends on several factors. Keep in mind that the size of your breast after surgery is primarily determined by the amount of breast tissue you have added to the size of the implant used. The shape of your breast is determined by you own anatomy and the tightness of the skin on the breasts. From your photos we can see that the breasts are... more
