There are many ways to help patients determine what size breast implant they desire.

Implant size

T is very important to communicate your size goals with your surgeon. In my practice, the use of photographs of “goal” pictures (and breasts that are too big or too small) is very helpful. I have found that the use of words such as “natural” or “C cup” or "fake looking" means different things to different people and therefore prove unhelpful. Also, as you know, cup size varies depending on who makes the bra; therefore, discussing desired... more

There is no perfect size and you input is absolutely essential. This is not a decision which should be abdicated to a another person. Your statements would lead me to advise you to consider an under the muscle silicone implant in the range of 200-250 cc with a moderate profile but this is just one opinion.

Implants for natural-looking breasts

In my opinion without an in-person examination it is hard to say what would be right for you. Everyone's body anatomy is different and a 350 cc implant in you will look very different in someone else. For this reason, it's best to consult with several surgeons and make a decision that both you and your surgeon are comfortable with.

What size is a natural looking implant

The answer is simple but the real answer is not. The simple answer - you have included your overall body size and that is helpful. Being a petite individual, size can play a more important role in some of larger stature. The important information to know is the base width and other parameters regarding your breast. Keeping an implant with the dimensions in mind will result in a more natural outcome. The implant should not be larger than your breast for a... more

Natural looking breasts

We women are incredibly aware of our breast appearance -- maybe even more than men are. Breasts are sexual and sensual, a big part of what makes us women, and they can dictate our sense of attractiveness and desirability (for better or worse). Many women embrace this procedure because it carries little risk of complication and because an implant can be inserted through a tiny incision and is a quick, nearly scarless operation. There are various factors regarding how you want your breasts... more

How to find out what size implants you want

I would suggest seeing your plastic surgeon and taking samples of various sizes of implants and place them inside your bra. Then, you can look in the mirror to get a general idea of what size implants you need. Basically, to get some shape and volume without being too large, I'd say from your photo you may need 200-250cc implants. This will most likely give you a nice shape and volume without appearing like you have large breast implants. Good luck! more
