Hi Cocoanddaisy, I like to say that cup size in breasts are much like shoe sizes. it the way the breast implant shapes and fills out the breast not the cup size change. Implants require the the cup size of the bra to be bigger than what is their apparent visual size. How much an implant increases the cup size depends on the original size of the breast; a 32 "A" is a very much smaller breast than a 38 "A" so a 400 cc implant is going to increase the cup size much more than the same implant in the larger breast. What is more important is the proportion and dimensions of the breast, the visual weighting of the breast compared with the body. As far as your question, I would expect a 35A breast size to be more than a C cup with a 400 to 450 implant. I enthusiastically recommend that you see a plastic surgeon with a Vecrta 3D system to see your virtual results and not dwell on cup size change but dimensional change and the visual balance that you want with your breasts given your body type and aesthetic goals.
implants and cup size its important to know your current bra size .. if you are 35 inches around under your breast you should be in a 34 or 36 inch bra. the volume of the implant will change with the diameter which affects the volume of the implant. typical a-c in a 36 is 375 cc in a 34 about 325-350 cc over 400 will make you a d in 36 and dd in a 34
A 400 cc implant will most likely put you into the large C cup range. Any larger and you will most likely be into a D cup, although it depends on how much of your own breast tissue you have ahead of time. It sounds like a reasonable size given your measurements.
I always say that Victoria's secret C is different than a Nordstrom C. This means that there is a huge variation in cup size from different bra makers. But roughly speaking, it is possible that 400 cc's make take you up two "cup" sizes. I agree that Crisalix, the 3-D preop breast imaging can be very nice to help a patient visualize what she make look like with a 400cc implant. You can try on different sizes with the computer program and it is just fun so see how you might look. But I think a formal consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon and sizing done in the office gives the most satisfied patient. Good luck on your journey with your plastic surgeon!
400 cc is probably a good estimate, but trying on sizers in the office will give you the best idea. Picking the profile or style should be easily navigated by your plastic surgeon. Find a plastic surgeon with ELITE credentials who performs hundreds of breast augmentations each year. Then look at the plastic surgeon's website before and after photo galleries to get a sense of who can deliver the results. Kenneth Hughes, MD Los Angeles, CA
There are many variables that go into cup size but this sounds reasonable. Don't worry so much about cup size. See a PS and try on sizers to determine the best look for you. They will help you pick out the right size implant.
Unfortunately, without examining you, it would be impossible to assess your bra size. Furthermore, despite estimations, there is no set volume given for each cup size as bra manufacturers vary in their determination of cup sizes. An estimation that I use in my practice is that for every cup size increase, an additional 150 cc is needed. I recommend seeking a formal consultation with an ASAPS (American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery) plastic surgeon to discuss your goals and desires to determine the correct implants and surgery you will need
It's reasonable to assume from your measurements that you would achieve a C cup with a 400cc implant. Even with a photo, it would be difficult to predict but it would help. Go in for a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon and try on implants, that is really the best way. ac
are very accurate in predicting what size and look you will have. Ask your about them.
If your chest circumference is 35 inches then you most likely have a broad based breast. If this is the case then for every 200 cc of implant volume you should go up about one cup size. I hope this helps with your decision making process. It is only an estimate.
Dear Tara4realty, the most common cause for gurgling sound after a breast augmentation is air trapped around your implant at the time of surgery. That is called subcutaneous emphysema and it resolves spontaneously when your body absorbs the air. It is unusual to have that 3 weeks...
While I don't guarantee a cup size, I do guarantee that whatever volume a woman chooses using prefilled sizers we will use. Did you "size" with your plastic surgeon? If you have chosen to use 200-300 ml volume implants, your results may be similar with gel and saline, and you won't...
Hello. Thank you for your inquiry. It is important to have an in-person assessment regarding your concerns as it is difficult to determine virtually. The projection increases. Exact end results and cup sizes are usually quite difficult to calculate as everyone has a different starting point...
