Answer: Bigger is not always better
My first question to you is why do you want to do this? Choosing a "big round fake stripper look" when you are 19 years old has a number of consequences. Generally speaking, the bigger the implants the bigger the problems. You can always find someone to gives you what you want, but that is not the mark of a quality surgeon. There is a lot of judegement involved in getting a beautiful result. For someone who weighs 110 pounds and has a 32 inch chest circumference, placing 550-600 cc implants could give you a "uni-boob" look. Your skin can only hold so much volume, and when you try to stuff it past capacity the middle can lift up and make it look like the breasts are connected into one. Also, the bigger the implants the more you stretch your skin, and the more pressure you place against your own tissues. The stretching and thinning effects can be permanent. At 19, you may not be thinking about drooping of your breasts, but this too is a concern with time. Breast implants are not a lifetime device, and this will not be your last surgery. Surgery is not something you can take back, and can leave permanent effects even if you take the implants out later. Please think about what it is you really want. If you are interested in a DD bra cup size, in a petite woman this can be accomplished with less volume. You cannot compare the implant volume between friends. There are many other factors involved in choosing an implant or reaching a certain cup size. Each body is different. I recommend consulting with a board certified plastic surgeon in person to really evaluate your goals. Good luck!

Answer: Large Implants--Use 3D Imaging to define CC's One of the most important decisions facing breast augmentation patients is the size of breast implants that will be used.Most patients are striving for harmony, balance, and proportion with surrounding anatomic structures.Typically, they want a natural look, with some fullness in the upper breast areas.Occasionally, women desire accentuated upper pole breast fullness.The patient consultation is the starting point for their decision and every effort should be made to have good communication.Most patients tend to speak in terms of cup size.Unfortunately, cup size isn’t always helpful because manufacturers of bras label their products differently and women don’t always wear their bras the same way.In other words, some women wear their bras snugly, while others wear them loosely.This creates communication problems when talking cup size.In an effort to determine breast size in a more objective manner, we utilize external silicone sizers and the Vectra 3D computer imaging system.External silicone sizers are designed to sit on top of the patient’s breasts.They can be held against the patient’s chest or placed inside the patient’s bra.This technique helps the patient visualize what their breasts will look like with a specific sized implant.It also gives them a sense of the volume that will sit on their chest wall and how it feels.The 3D Vectra imaging system is a relatively new technology that we have found to be extremely helpful for determining breast implant size.This system allows a patient to visualize different sized implants on their actual body.Patients find this to be extremely helpful.The ability to visualize your projected surgical result alleviates much of the anxiety associated with this procedure.We feel that both the use of the external silicone sizers and 3D Vectra systems accomplishes this goal.It’s important to remember that final adjustments in the size of breast implants will ultimately be made in the Operating Room, depending upon anatomic factors.

Answer: Want big round stripper look
Unless you are obtaining implants for professional reasons , i think that size implant could cause you difficulties down the road and you should rethink your choice.

Answer: Large volume breast implants
There is no specific volume of implant that can be considered "too big", since each patient has a unique anatomy. However, if the implants are too large for your tissues, you could experience more problems and complications in the future due to the skin being stretched out too much.
Don't be too consumed with a specific number of cc's that you want, but rather, consult with a board certified plastic surgeon and convey your desires and goals. Your surgeon will give you guidance and hopefully use good judgment to arrive at an appropriate size for your body. There are great surgeons in the Memphis, TN area.
Best wishes,
Dr.Bruno

Answer: Be carefull about going too big
If you go too big you could end up with a problem called synmastia which is lifting of the breast beyond the midline which in the photo that you show is very close to happening. Complications from breast augmentation are more likely when implants which are too large for the patient are placed. You should discuss your concerns with your plastic surgeon carefully and listen to what his/her recommendations are regarding size. Also cup size varies from depending on the style and brand. I have seen that some bra brands run 2-3 sizes bigger where a D cup in one brand can be a B cup in another.
