Breast implant size/type?

The more breast surgery I do the more I realize that there is no correlation between the size or model (profile) of implant used and resulting cup size. This may have to do with several factors including: the amount of breast volume the patient starts with, the shape of the patient's chest wall (concave or convex), the type and model of breast implant selected (saline/silicone and low/moderate/high profile), bra manufacturer variance in cup sizes, the degree... more

Silicone implants placed under the muscle tend to look the most natural.

Silicone implants placed under the muscle tend to look the most natural. Size is a complex decision that is not only based upon your height, weight and current cup/bra size but ALSO on also on your breast diameter, waist, shoulder, and skin envelope measurements. These can only be assessed in person during a consultation. A good place to start is using my "Find your perfect size" tool listed in the left hand column of my bodysculptor.com home page. Another good place to... more

Placement and Silicone vs. Saline

To achieve the most natural possible I prefer the subpectoral augmentation, or under the muscle. This provides more camouflage for the implant in case there is some rippling. Because you are so petite, I believe that this would be a good option for you. I would recommend silicone implants as they are less prone to rippling and with you minimal breast tissue; you do not have a lot of camouflage. I suggest talking with your surgeon about what he believes will work best for your body and... more

Perfect implants for perfect breasts

Okay, do you know the difference between a plastic surgeon and God?  A plastic surgeons tries to make the breasts perfect.  God doesn't even try.  "Perfect"  should be expunged from the plastic surgery lexicon.  Now to answer your question:  Smooth, round gel implants under the muscle.  Size should be determined by the diameter and the tightness of your breasts, not your or your plastic surgeon's imagination.  Go online... more

Breast implant size suggestion

Choosing the size of an implant is based on two factors: Your anatomy and your goals. The most important criteria for choosing an implant is determining the width of your breast. The goal of the implant is to accentuate your natural breast and keeping the implant within your body's natural breast diameter allows for a more natural augmentation, easier camouflaging of the implant, and less issues with rippling and tissue thinning over time. Volume is based on that width by changing... more

Choosing breast size and type is an individual decision

It sounds like you are an ideal candidate for breast augmentation surgery though a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon should confirm this. In choosing implant type, saline and silicone look the same but silicone may feel more natural which in a thin patient may be worth the extra cost of the implant. As far as size, this should be discussed with your plastic surgeon, however a 300 to 350 cc range round breast implant should provide enough volume to fill out a breast... more

Sizing and position of breast implants

I disagree with other answers that the surgeon should decide the implant size and that the shape of the implant is the most important. Breast implants are pillow volume and size is not just the volume of the implant in cc's. It's closer to fitting your foot in a shoe or your body to a dress except that you can't "try on" a breast implant in spite of the attempts to do this externally.  The positioning of the implant is based on years of experience with... more

Type, position, and size of breast implants

First and foremost, you should have the opportunity to select the breast implant that will give you the look you want. Although implant volume (cc’s) is important, the shape of the implant is just as important. I prefer that the patient starts the process by first selecting the type, or profile of the implant. Then, after the shape of the implant is determined, you are better able to select the size of the implant that will give you the look you want. Other factors your... more

Breast Augmentation Advice

Breast implant size depends on  the natural width of your breasts.  Implant volumes are based on their width. Since your are thin and athletic the placement with a dual plane technique (partially beneath muscle and breasts) to avoid visibility of the implant edges.  Whether you get saline or silicone implants is a personal choice. Silicone implants do have softer "natural" feel.  Finally, if you have some stretch marks on your breasts those will become more... more

Choosing breast implant size and position

In my opinion, under the muscle silicone implants give the most natural look and feel.  After a complete examination in consultation with your plastic surgeon, the range of implant sizes can be discussed.  Size depends on your skin quality, your anatomy and what you are looking to achieve.  Good luck with your surgery.
