I went for a second visit, and tried on more sizers. I really like how 450cc moderate plus looks, but I am afraid they will turn out much bigger than I am wanting. I am currently a very small 34B and want to be a full C/small D. I know there is no correlation between cc's and cup sizes, I just don't want to be top heavy. I am 5'2 140lbs. Is there really a big difference in 450 and 400cc?? Thank you!!

Answer: BBA There is no way to guarantee a particular bra size. Bra sizing varies greatly between bra manufacturers and a C in one bra will be a D in another. What matters more than the assigned bra size is the way the implant looks on you. The best option for your body and aesthetic goals can be determined in a thorough implant sizing session.Implant sizing depends on several factors. One of the most important factors is your breast width. Generally, your surgeon will measure your breast width, and then provide you with a range of implant sizes appropriate for your native breast size. There are more nuances to it than just what I've described, but this approach works for most women.I usually have my patients bring in a large bra and a tight t-shirt to do sizing. I'll then choose 3-4 implants that I feel are appropriate, and have my patients place them in the bra under the tight t-shirt. My patients can then look in the mirror and get a good sense of what they will look like with the provided implant sizes. My patients like this approach and get a great idea of how they will look.By using this technique, your surgeon can outline a range of appropriate implant sizes that will be aesthetically pleasing, and you make the final decision.I hope this helps. Good luck!

Answer: Sizing breast implants There is a lot of energy and apprehension associated with implant sizing. But the basic question is pretty straightforward. How will I look with clothes on?.Because bra sizes are not scientific, the patient must be given the opportunity to convert her wishes to a volume or language we all can speak. So preop sizing with implants provides a crude but effective and cheap way to see what you look like before surgery. It is a lot harde to change the implant after surgery. I have found this technique a simple, crude but elegant way to have my patients decide. Sure there are limits but all that is discussed preop with each patient. It is each patients responsibility to come to a decision she can live with. I find very few are unhappy postop.
