Determining Cup Size

Thanks for the question - Cup size is a bit of a difficult measurement. The reason why is there is no defined standard. You've probably noticed that a cup size in one bra brand can be different in another brand. You probably own bras with different cup sizes. Cubic centimeters (cc) on the other hand is a very precise and standard management. This measurement deals with volume and is the standard for implant sizing. Your final cup size will depend on the your original breast tissue,... more

280 cc implants likely to bump up a cup size

There is no defined change in cup size with a given implant volume. But, a 280 cc implant is more than likely going to bump you up a cup size or so.

A "cc" is a measure of volume

Dear Zoo, You have raised some very ineresting issues in your question. First of all as mentioned in the title, breast implants should be considered in terms of their volume and not their weight. To clarify this, you can imagine that a pound of feathers would occupy a lot more space than a pound of metal. Implants are generally considered in terms of their volume. A "cc" is equal to a Milliliter or "ml". Based on your question, I would have to assume that you had a 280... more

Probably a D cup.

Hi! Make sure you want to be this big. Very large breasts don't age well. Also large implants look less natural. This is very important to some women and not to others. I use disposable implant sizers DURING the operation. We try different volumes to see which looks best BEFORE opening the permanent implants. This takes the guess work out. The diameter of the base of your implants should be one centimeter less than the diameter of the base of your breasts. So you may need high... more

Expect a full C cup

ZOO, At 5'2" 115 pounds you are fairly petite. I would expect that you will be a full C cup, or even a small D in certain bra styles if you are presently a B. Good luck!

Cup size depends on your chest diameter

The cup size depends on your chest diameter. Therefore, the same cc or implant size will lead to different cup sizes in different people. If you have a large chest diameter, then the same implant will have a lower cup size than someone with a smaller chest diameter.

Cc's does not = gms!

I am not quite clear on your question, but I will give you my thoughts on what I think you mean. On average, there is about 100 cc's (saline) difference between cup sizes. It is difficult or impossible to predict what your size will be based on your information. Also, in my opinion, the actual cup size is less important than the final aesthetic of the breast. One thing to keep in mind is that bra sizing is not standardized. My concept of implant sizing is that the appropriate implant... more

CC's and cup size not directly related.

Cc's is a measure of volume. Cup size for bras is variably because of marketing reasons. Strictly speaking, the cup size is related to the difference in inches between the greatest circumference of the chest at the point of greatest breast projection and the circumference of the chest at the inframmammary fold under the breast. For each difference of an inch the cup sizes increases. So if you have a chest that measures 34 at the inframammary fold and 36 inches at the greatest projection of... more

There is no exact translation to cup size

Fashion manufacturers do not have an exact standard for cup sizing. There are differences between one company and another. In general, about 240 cc's will translate into a cup size. Work on getting the best size for you based on the proper "look" not a cup size.

Cup size after breast augmentation

Generally you can average a cup to be between 150-200cc. Given the size of 280gm you are going from 1.5-2 cup sizes up which would end you near a D cup. Clearly there are many other factors that go into this which makes this an inexzact science. For example, the 34 is a band width and roughly measures your boney skeleton. Your band width should theoretically not change but in reality it likely will. Therefore it is more likely you will be a 36D for two primary reasons: Women tell me that it... more

Diameter is the most important dimension

It sounds like you got a 280 cc implant . Hopefully the diameter of the implant is close to the diameter of your breast. Diameter plus desired size are the criteria that I use to make a recommendation for an implant. You should be measured and examined and then try some implant sizers on inside of a sports bra to see where you are comfortable in your body image. Cup size can vary tremendously from one bra manufacturer to another. Trying implants on in the office is a lot more useful. ... more
