425 cc after a "C" cup

Adding a 425 cc implant to a breast that is a "C" cup may bump you up to a"DD" or so. Hard to say for sure.

Breast Augmentation and Sizing

What I would ask you is what are you looking for in this surgery? What are you trying to accomplish? It is very difficult to say what cup size you would be.

Choosing bra size after augmentation not possible

There is absolutely no conformity with bra manufacturers so I tell all my patients I cannot promise nor guarantee a cup or bra size from augmentation, lift or reduction surgery.

Breast implant size and cup after 425 cc.

There is no one who can provide you with a definitive answer.

Average of 2 cup sizes

In general, each cup size is 150-250 cc depending on breast diameters. With a 425 cc gel implant you will likely be a full D. This is not a perfect science as different chest shapes and diamters will influence this final size.
