Natural looking implant size selection depends on what size you want to be after.

Thank you for your questions. It's difficult to be too specific without photographs or having the advantage of examining you. Volume for volume, silicone implants are lighter and softer than saline.

Because this variable plays such a... more

I Want Natural-Looking Implants, What's Best If I'm a 38C Now?

A natural looking result after a breast implant depends greatly on the shape of the combined native breast tissue and the implant. The weight difference between silicone and saline is essentially none. Soft is also something that is desirable, but there are risks of scar tissue formation with breast implants that can make them feel or look firm in a percentage of patients. It sounds like you are having a lot of surgery in one day so you will be pretty sore, especially the first few days.... more
