Im am booked in for a BA very soon however am having trouble deciding on size. I am 5"6", 150lbs, and currently an 32A cup. I would like to be a mid to full B after the BA. Would 250cc get me to this, or would I need to go to 275cc or even 300cc?

Breast implant size

Much of the final “look” achieved after breast augmentation surgery depends on several factors: 1. The initial shape, size (volume of breast tissue), symmetry of the patient's breasts. In general, the better the preoperative breast appearance the more likely the breast augmentation “look” will be optimal. 2. The experience/skill level of the surgeon is important in determining the final outcome. For example, the accurate and gentle... more

Implant size depends on the patient

It is impossible to determine exactly what implant size is needed to achieve the results you desire without a physical examination. However, just from the information you provided about your height, weight, current bra size and what you want to achieve, I would suggest that you might need the larger implant that you mentioned. That is at least 300 cc's. I recommend a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon. Names and addressed can be found in the... more

Final Cup size after breast implant augmentation: Letters and numbers are not as important as appearance

In general this is a relatively modest implant and in the average individual would take an A cup to a B cup. Howvever, there are no guarantees and you best bet is to try sizers once again with your surgeon. The final cup size is not as important as the final appearance. Don' t focus on numbers or letters

Breast Augmentation sizing

Without an exam it is difficult to assess if a 250cc implant will give you the results you are looking for. In my experience, it is unlikely that a 250cc implant will give you a ful B cup size. I would recommend considering a larger implant. This should be discussed iwth your surgeoin prior to the surgery.

Breast Implant Sizing

Without seeing, examining and measuring your chest to truly determine your cup size, it is hard to give you accurate advice. A tablespoon is 15ccs, so from 275ccs to 300ccs is 2 tablespoons...not a significant difference! I tell patients that a cup is about 200ccs, give or take and depending on your body shape. I would hope that your Board Certified Plastic Surgeon has measured you appropriately and helped with your sizing. I am sure he/she will help settle your anxiety! Goo more

250 cc implants

Without an exam it is difficult to say. a 250 cc implant will probaly bump you up a cup or so. But an exam would help determine that.

From you weight and height I think 250 to 300 cc;s will give you a B cup. Remember most wish they had gone larger after the surgery. From MIAMI Dr. Darryl J. Blinski, 305 598 0091

Cup Size after Breast Augmentation

Predicting cup size after breast augmentation can be difficult and not an exact science. We use sizers preoperatively to approximate postoperative cup size, but this too is only an approximation. It is difficult to determine here without examination and photos. Your best bet is to reconsult with your surgeon if questions remain regarding implant selection and cup size.

Breast size after 250 cc implants

We have experience with hundreds of breast augmentation procedures, and without clear information as to how you wish to look, and an examination to base on where to start, and the chance to make final adjustments during your procedure, any prediction about the result can only be a guess. It seems are pressed to make an uneducated guess, and I would place this burden on your surgeon. The 250 cc seems like a place to start, anything from there will take experience to work out. Best of... more

Choosing the "perfect" implant

Every woman who undergoes a breast augmentation wants to be the "perfect" size when she is done. I regularly get patients who want to know what cup size a "this" implant. As if there each implant will equate to a particular cup size. One of the biggest factors making this impossible is that there is no absolute "standard" by which bra cup size is made. Every bra manufacturer has a slightly different "cup size." The decision... more
