Breast Implants: Q&A
Ask a QuestionWill 450 Cc's Silicone Implants Make a B Cup to a D Cup?
I am 135 lbs, 5'7" tall. I was told that 450cc's in each breast will bring me from a B to a D. Is this correct?

Cup sizing isn't exact
There is no exact way to translate implant volume into a cup size but roughly 210-240 cc's will equal a cup size so 450 should equate to about 2 cup sizes. As we have said repeatedly on this site, go for what will give you the "look" you want and let the cup size just follow that. Don't fixate on the letter.

B to D cup breast implants
First some questions:
How old are you?
Reproductive History?
Did you nurse?
Quality of breast skin and size of areolae?

Breast implant sizing
The more breast surgery I do the more I realize that there is no correlation between the size of implant 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 (saiine/silicone and low/moderate/high profile), bra manufacturer variance in cup sizes, the degree of filling of the...

Implant choices
It ia hard to say if a 450 cc implant is the right size for you, it probably would put you into the large D size, but without an exam it is hard to say.

Probably too big!
To Jen Bubblegum,
Hi! All the guess work can be taken out! Show your surgeon a picture of D cup breasts that you think are great.
Then, DURING surgery, what I do is put in disposable implant SIZERS. Then we try different volumes to see which size produces the look you want, or as close to it as possible. Then, and only then, we open the correct permanent implants. This step takes only a few minutes, and a sizer only costs $45. So it is really worth it.
As a guess, I would say you...
