Hi! Im 21years old, 5'1 & 125lbs. I have a 11month old son via csection&breastfed for only 1 month. I don't plan on having anymore kids for a Very long time. My breasts look fine but aftermilk they are now deflated & lost volume at top. I am a 34C now so I have tissue but I want them Bigger & Fuller!! Im not really looking for "natrual" look I wouldnt mind the "fake" or"augmented" look either(: Bit my PS says 475cc is too big & recommended 425cc(btw my PS also told me my breasts are perfect shape for BA) But I hear soooooo,many stories about woman wishing they were bigger. & I already want mine huge sp I definetly do Not want to regret this later! Ive chosen 475cc on left & right HP under the muscle & under breast crease..dimensions are...nipple to fold: 6.5 on R & L Diameter: 13 on R & 13.5 on L Mimic Distance: 3.5. Please help ladies!

Visually 50cc won't make a difference. Did you ask your PS why he thinks 475 is too big? It may be that he thinks your skin is too thin or that the larger implant is too wide for the pocket he has to create. You have a lot of tissue, maybe he thinks the heavier implant might cause more sagging.

He called me today & said if that's what I wanted he will be able to do it. He said it may go to the side a little bit & that is the only reason why he was so concerned? I hope everything goes well. I am soooo nervous & excited too! I just want everything to go right. Sometimes I feel as if he may not know exactly what I want?. But I feel like I have made it very clear...Any of you feel this way before?

I have 475cc my experience is not a very good one though! I developed pnumonia and plurosy straight after surgery and was in hospital for two weeks and in extreme pain - this I think has affected how I feel about my implants - I am pleased with the size ( I am 171cm H and weigh 60kg) the only 'issue' I have with the size is when I am in bed - I wear a sports bra(crop top) to bed due to the size, it is uncomfortable to roll over (hoping this will change as I get used to the size)

I was a B and got 280cc cohesive gel implants. I'm now a perfect C (5ft, 5in, 130lb). I look great in all my tops and dresses and couldn't be happier. For a bit I was concerned that I should have gone just a tad larger, but now that things have settled in, I'm glad I didn't. I can't even imagine how huge and uncomfortble I'd be with 475cc, not to mention looking ridiculous. It's your own personal choice, but if I were starting at a C, I would stongly advise against. Also, recommend simulating it with breastforms and wear them around for awhile before you make your final decision. Remember these are hopefully for life, or at least many years. You have to live with them 24/7. Good luck!!!
Thank you for starting your story with us here on RealSelf! I can tell you that larger implants have a greater chance of developing complications, and you're quite petite, which means really huge implants may not fit your frame. If you're unsure about what your surgeon says, you should go on a couple more consults and get other opinions. Best to check around now. You only want to do this once!
