Breast Augmentation

It is a great question, but one that is hard to answer without an in person evaluation. It is not uncommon for this degree of size change, but whether they will look OK on you depends on a number of factors which can't be discerned online. When you ready for an in person consultation, RealSelf has listings of surgeons in your area. You should consider cross referencing the listings from the The American Society of Plastic Surgeons (plasticsurgery dot org). A listing in the ASPS website... more

Twenty years old and wanting breast augmentation

You are not the only twenty year old who has had breast augmentation or is thinking of having the procedure. Your physical and mental maturity is appropriate to proceed with the surgery. Implant choice and sizing is critical. See a plastic surgeon with experience.

Twenty years old and want a breast augmentation

Twenty years old is not too young to get breast implants. You are small in frame and an A cup. That doesn't bother some women, but others simply don't feel feminine and feel they don't look good in cloths with small breasts. It is your personal outlook that is the determining factor as to whether you should undergo the surgery. If you lack self-confidence, this can make a huge difference. I have had patients through the years that didn't want to undress in the light in front of their... more

Breast Augmentation

Hi! Thank you for your question, I would recommend you discuss your options in full detail with your board certified plastic surgeon as to what size implant would work best aesthetically and anatomically for your body dimensions. There are many pros and cons for both silicone and saline. However, silicone implants tend to be more popular as they give a more natural look. Once again, I would discuss that with your plastic surgeon. Good luck. Dr. Sam Speron more

Breast augmentation

You should get at least a couple of consults and bring a list of questions with you. A "C" cup is a vague term and , as you will learn, we measure size in "cc's". Your most important measurement is the diameter of your breast. Get an implant that corresponds to your diameter. Try some implants on. It takes some time to get used to the change. Be sure and talk about exchange of implants during your life. Wishing you all the best. Talmage Raine MD... more

Breast augmentation

Most of my patients tend to want to go to a full C/small D size. Certainly the size implant that I would use on someone who is six feet tall would be much larger than the size that I would use on someone who is five feet tall in order to achieve that cup size. There are pros and cons to saline versus silicone gel implants just as there are with subglandular versus submuscular placement of the implants. This is something that your doctor should go over with you during your... more

Breast Augmentation

In short, you are not eligible for silicone implants due to your age. You must be 22 years old according to FDA standards unless your surgery qualifies as "reconstructive surgery." Nonetheless, you can also get great results from saline implants. Consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon who will allow you to try on various sized implants in the office to help you determine what is the most appropriate size for you. Best wishes!

Breast Augmentation Asymmetry

I would suggest setting up a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon to review your options. Without seeing pictures or seeing you in person, it is impossible to give you specific advice. However, in most cases, going from an A cup to a C cup is possible with breast augmentation. The question is where to go with Saline for your age or waiting for Silicone implants. Good Luck.

Breast Augmentation in a 20 year old

Dear Sum, As you have seen from the previous answers, you are NOT eligible for silicone gel filled implants until you are 22 years old. You are also NOT too young or too petite for breast augmentation. In general, silicone gel implants do provide a more natural look and feel. Consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon will help you with your options and goals. Good luck! see video
