Would 400cc High Profile Will Be Too Large? I Have a Curvy Body.

I'm getting breast augmentation in December. I want my breast to be fuller look with natural slope and a bit on a larger size. I tried on the sizing and I kinda like 400cc-450cc. Two sergeons I met said it's fine but the other one said he couldn't do it. I am 5'5 and 120lbs,32A or B. My shoulder is a bit wide and my stats are: Chest: shoulder width (from left to right):15" Waist: 25" Hips: 36" I like the look with 400cc when I tried on and put the shirt on top but still curious if it's too big?

The question is can your body accommodate an implant that large? The best position for implants is retro-pectoral. However, if the body cannot accommodate that size they will extrude inferiorly, laterally and look unattractive. The goal of breast surgery is to produce... more

400cc too large??

There are a number of factors we use in determining the best size implant for a patient. Of primary consideration is her goal in terms of outcome. Not every patient's goal is realistic, not all can be met. There are some limitations in terms of size. For example most surgeons prefer not to use an implant the diameter of which is greater that the breast width. The elasticity of the breast tissue is another factor. If the 400 cc implant looked good as a try-on, then if... more

Hello

In our practice we tell our patients that 225cc equal about one cup size. You did not mention what size you were looking to be but if you’re an A or B cup the 400-450cc implants should take to a nice C cup or D cup if that’s what you’re looking for. Without picture or an exam it’s really hard to be more accurate

It sounds like a bit large for your frame, but there are so many factors to consider that it would take an exam to really answer that question.
