What Size Implant (With Breast Lift) Will I Roughly Need to Get from a Saggy 34D to 34E?

Having a breast lift with implants in 2 weeks but am very confused about what size I should have. My surgeon has suggested 300cc but I am worried that this will not be big enough and I will only end up with full D. I am currently a 34D but my surgeon says I have C tissue so I'm guessing the rest is just skin? He said he would possibly do 340cc but this is a bigger risk to my breasts dropping again too soon after my lift, is this right? And will 340cc get me to an E? I will be having submuscular.
