Silicone Gel Implants Natural Size?

5'9, 130 lbs, 25 year old, currently 34B. I don't have any kids, so sagging is minimal and I have asked my doctor to make me a full C, small D NATURAL looking. I have selected to use the silicone gel implants.

My Dr states because of my wide shoulders and hips I can go 450-525 comfortably, but I think this is too big. I would like some nice cleavage and fullness but I don't want to be a adult movie star look-alike. I was thinking 425-475. Your thoughts? I appreciate all the help!

But here is the gist of it: take a pair of panty hose cut off at the ankles. Take a measuring cup and measure out 1 1/2 cups of rice which is about 360 cc. Pour in into the panty hose and tie it loosely. Put on a sports bra and place the rice /pantyhose into the bra and shape to cover you... more

Breast Implant Size?

Thank you for the question and pictures. Unfortunately, it is not possible to directly correlate breast implant size and final breast cup size. “Natural looking” means different things to different people- the use of words are subjective and lead to miscommunication. The "rice test" and other forms of pre-operative sizing also are inaccurate. Communication with your surgeon is critical in achieving the results that you wish to achieve. In... more

Try the implants on in a bra

By sizing with the appropriate dimension of an implant you can get an idea of what will help you get the look you are after.

As your plastic surgeon to allow you to size with the implants so you can see. Dr Edwards
