I'm 24, 5'5 and 115 lbs, is 500c high profile OK? (Photo)

Dear shiro3419,
breast implant type and sizing selection is a complicated process and requires a detailed consultation that includes a discussion of your goals, a detailed examination, and a lengthy discussion. But the decision will always start and end with the patient. When it comes to sizing, we have all of our patients find 3 photos of their desired breast size. We ask for naked breast photos because clothing can obscure the true size (push up bras). Next, we consult with patients and go over the photos and take detailed breast measurements during a physical exam. Next, we using a sizing algorithm to determine a range of implants that will work based on the exam and the measurements.Lastly, during the operation, we use silicone sizers in the operating room to see how the size actually looks in the breast. We sit the patient up in the operating room, while asleep of course, and compare the sizer result with their desired look photos. If it is too small, we start the process over with a slightly larger implant. We don't stop until we get the perfect match.Of all of my breast augmentation patients, every one of them has been happy with their size due to this detailed and meticulous process. You don't want to invest time and money into a result that is either too big or too small.You should discuss your concerns with a board-certified plastic surgeon and make sure that your surgeon understands your goals.

Hi, thank you for sharing your question. You are a great candidate for breast augmentation, but the best size and shape of the implant is determined along with your plastic surgeon after measurements are taken of your breasts. It is difficult to say whether a 500cc HP implant will be the right one for you. Your breasts are not entirely symmetric right now, which may change what you decide. I find it helpful to use a Vectra 3D simulation to show patients what specific implants would look like in their body. I hope this helps. Best of luck!
