500 cc for 5'9 160lbs? (photo)

Thank you for your picture. I agree that a lift is necessary a 500 mL gel implant is appropriate. I agree that a larger implant place will make it difficult to perform a lift. After surgery is hard to determine what cup size you will be. There's no way to predict that going in or to tell that afterwards until you're completely healed and you are remeasured. Therefore focus less on the cup size and more on the desired and actual results. Good luck

At size 34 each 100 cc’s of implant corresponds
to 1 cup size change.500 cc implants
will take you to a size G, weigh over 1 lb each, will extrude inferiorly and
laterally requiring revision.I
recommend a new technique called Breast Augmentation with Mini Ultimate Breast
LiftTM.Using only a
circumareola incision it is possible to reshape your breast tissue creating
upper pole fullness, elevate them higher on the chest wall and more medial to
increase your cleavage.Through the same
incision, implants can be placed.Aligning the areola, breast tissue and implant over the bony prominence
of the chest wall maximizes anterior projection with a minimal size
implant.Small round textured silicone
gel implants placed retro-pectoral look and feel more natural, are more stable,
less likely to ripple or have complications needing revision.Implant profile is irrelevant in the
retro-pectoral position since the muscle compresses it.300 cc implants would take you to a DD.However, you are asymmetrical in shape,
position and volume.The lift is just as
important as the implant.Best Wishes,Gary Horndeski, M.D.

Dear Mariie,        Thanks for submitting your picture. From the picture it appears that you have a small A cup with grade 2 ptosis on the right side and A cup with grade 2  to 3 on the left side. If indeed your chest circumference is 34 inches, 500 cc implants will bring you to a 34 D + . If you are 36 inches you'll become a 36 small D. As far as the lift, as long as it is a mini lift ( donut, circum areola ) , you should heal without  a problem. Any other lift technique , will be better off with small implants, so that there will be less compromise of the circulation due to excess pressure on the skin flaps and the nipples. Always, consult only,  with board certified plastic surgeons who operate in accredited surgery center. Check their before and after pictures to make sure that they are numerous, consistent and you like them. Also, check the reviews for positive patients experience                      Best of luck,                                        Dr Widder

Sounds like you have a good surgical plan, I rarely use 500cc implants but I am sure your doc has spoken to you at length about the consequences of heavy weighted implants on soft tissues of the breast

There's no way to know what size you will be as bra sizing is highly varied between bra manufacturers.
