Will 450cc Saline Under Muscle Be a Full C Cup?

Question

I still seem to look small, I'm also 5'4". I had the breast aug on Feb. 8th (2013- recently), and I am about two Mondays away from my six week post-op follow-up. Somehow, I feel as if I should have gone up to 500ccs. I know I need more than six weeks to see the final result, however, I am baffled by how small I look right now although they have yet fully settled.

Congratulations on having undergone the breast augmentation procedure.   Although your concern and curiosity are understandable, my best recommendation to you would be to  continue to be patient and evaluate the end results of surgery 3 to 6 months from now.

	 

	On the same lines, I would suggest that you not worry too much about exactly what cup size you will be;  certainly do not base your satisfaction with the outcome of the procedure on achieving a specific cup size.  As you know, bra cup sizes will vary from one bra manufacturer to another…

	Best wishes;  hopefully, you will be very pleased with the long-term outcome of the procedure performed.

The implant size you chose should easily make you a C cup, but cup size can be subjective.  You should definitely give them time to settle before a final assessment on size.

Hello. Six weeks is not enough time for the implants to settle. Your implants will not settle for about another two months and I would not be too worried about your outcome until then. Many patients feel that their implants look larger over time.

	More information including weight and breast/chest size would help, but in general even a 36 chest should achieve a D cup with 450 cc.  an additional 50 would be 10% more  and not much change

Steven Wallach, MD · Answer

A 450 cc implant should give you a good increase in volume. Figure approximately 150-200/ cup size.
