Breast Implants: Q&A

What Size Do You Recommend for Me? (photo)
I'm 26, 45kgs and 161cms tall. I act and model so having big beautiful boobs is important to me. My hubby and I both agree on silicone and the high profile, under the muscle. My plastic surgeon (who did my initial job at 280cc in 2007) is suggesting an increase to 360/390 or maybe 420cc, medium profile. This seems ridiculous to me as the difference is so little and I am wanting to be a D if not a double D. I was thinking 450cc as a minimum 500cc as a maximum, because of my frame. Please advise?

Size
It is tough to give a valid opinion without actually seeing the breast. What is important is your motivation for changing the implants and your expectations. I do not like the high or ultra high profile look for most patients for primary augmentation. They do not look natural at all.

500 cc HP from 280cc for Breast Implants
Depending upon the individual, the 140 cc increase may produce almost one cup size increase. 500 cc HP may be appropriate. Express your concerns to your plastic surgeon.

What Size Do You Recommend for Me?
The photos are not of an exposed frontal breast! So MY GUESS is 450 cc HP. But best to seek more in person consults.

Implant exchange and sizing Thank you for the question and posting pictures.
Dear Jade,
Thank you for your question and posting pictures. It seems for the increase in volume that you need, at least 2 to 300 mL volume addition is warranted. Of course this needs to be determined in person and reviewed by trying out sizers. I would recommend with going with silicone implants that are ultrahigh/full profile as they will have the narrowest base width. This will minimize the risks of having the implants sit too wide laterally or be to close To each other....

Implant size.
It is always best to be seen in person for a thorough exam and proper analysis and discussin of your goals. In general a bump in cup size usually takes between 150-200 cc minimum change. Good luck.

Implant size selection to acheive your goals
I consider two factors when selecting implants for my patients:
1.Dimensional planning
2.Gel Implant Sizing system
Dimensional planning – The measurements of your chest wall are taken. Also, the breast dimensions including the height, width, and current dimensions of each breast form the basis of dimensional planning. Based on these measurements, the implant size is recommended. This will give you a unique breast implant that is suited for your body frame. However, there are some...

How to select breast implant size? Ask Dr Ellen
Hello JadeEarpJones,
As a woman and a board certified plastic surgeon, I like to have the ladies who visit with me try on sizers to get an idea of what the implant they are considering, will look like on their body. Afterall, you will be the one living with it, right? So, become a part of the decision making process and find out for yourself what 360cc all the way to 500cc does for your figure. Add a gel or saline sizer, (100cc ranging to 250cc) to a sport bra, on...

Implant exchange
Actually, you look beautiful as you are. No surgery needed.
One method of evaluating a larger implant is to have your surgeon take an air-filled implant sizer of the correct diameter, and put 100, 150 or 200 cc's in it, and have you try it out in a sports bra and t-shirt. Then, by adding that number to your current implant volume, you can get an approximate idea of what your next size should be.
