Hello, I can't decide on the size. I'm afraid that 350 might make me to big and 325 might make me too small. Also, my doctor suggested I get a mastopexy. I never had kids, and I'm very worried about it. I am a 5'6, 27 years old and 120 lb. First five phots are with 350cc, other five are with 325cc.
Answer: Choosing the right size breast implants for you The difference between the sizes represents less than 2 tablespoons, or one notch on your bra strap. Either size would work. You should have further conversations with your surgeon regarding your concerns with mastopexy. I recommend an in person consultation with a plastic surgeon to discuss your goals and be measured. After I do this with my patients, we then look at pictures of women with similar measurements with different size breast implants. My patients tell me that this process is very helpful in determining what size breast implant is right for them. Dr. Ted Eisenberg, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and Author

Answer: Breast augmentation, 325-350cc Hello and thank you for your question. You are a great candidate for a breast augmentation. The size, profile, and shape of the implant is based on your desired breast size/shape, your chest wall measurements, and soft tissue quality. This decision should be based on a detailed discussion with equal input from both you and your surgeon. Make sure you specifically look at before and after pictures of real patients who have had this surgery performed by your surgeon and evaluate their results. The most important aspect is to find a surgeon you are comfortable with. I recommend that you seek consultation with a qualified board-certified plastic surgeon who can evaluate you in person. Best wishes and good luck. Richard G. Reish, M.D. FACS Harvard-trained plastic surgeon

Answer: Implant size The 25 mL that you are struggling with represents a very small difference. You would likely not be able to tell much of a difference between the two once implanted. Regarding the mastopexy, I would give serious consideration to your surgeon’s recommendations. If you are uncomfortable with the recommendations you can seek a second opinion. Although no one really wants the additional incisions from a mastopexy, it is often the best option to achieve a nice breast shape and appearance. Best wishes.

Answer: Lift with Enlargement! You do need a lift for best improvement in the shape of your breasts. You have a tuberous component with enlarged areola complexes. A lift will improve the shape and will be worth the extra time and cost. Given your height, the larger implant will likely be best. Consider seeking additional consultations. 3D imaging is far more useful than implants in a bra. Find a surgeon in your area who offers it. Best wishes.
