I am 5ft,100lbs,size 32A.I went to consultations. The female Dr told me told get Moderate Plus 300cc or 325 cc to get to full Ccup yet still look natural. The male Dr told me to have High Profile 250 or 275cc, if try to push, could be 300 cc because of my petite size and because he think moderate pluss will spread to the side of my breast. Please give me some advice, thanks
Answer: Breast augmentation for petite frame
Dear Skippy86,
Because you have such a small frame, 300cc-350cc high profile implants sound about right for you. I would also suggest you request sub muscular placement, as this will give you a more natural look and decrease your chances of developing capsular contractures. Pls. be aware that given your small frame, a surgeon can only place as big an implant as your tissues will allow, so size can never be guaranteed. Having said this, 300cc-350cc implants should not pose a problem. Best wishes, Dr. H

CONTACT NOW Answer: Unfortunately Bra Sizes Aren't Standardized Thank you for your question. Unfortunately, bra sizes are not standardized, and a "full C cup" can mean a lot of different things. I bring a range of sizes of implants into the operating room, usually three different sets, and during surgery, I make the final decision of implant size, keeping in mind the patient's preferences. If I have a patient with similar preferences as yours, I would likely select the larger implant as long as the result doesn't look "unnatural", which is ultimately a slightly subjective judgement I make from experience in the operation room. Most of my patients want 250cc - 350cc implants. Not all surgeons bring in three sets of implants, but if your surgeon is willing to, then I would suggest bringing 275cc, 300cc, and 325cc.

Answer: #ObtainingCCupBreastImplant It is very difficult to determine the exact size and shape implant you will require to best match your ideal breast image without an examination by a board certified plastic surgeon. Not just any board certified plastic surgeon, but one with many years of frequently performing breast augmentation surgery including different approaches, techniques and implant choices. This is because several measurements not to mention your breast characteristics are needed to determine the optimal implant size to obtain your goals. Without knowing these dimensions it would be difficult to make this determination. For example, the existing base width of your breast will determine, in many cases, the maximal volume per implant profile that you can accommodate. To illustrate; a 100 cc difference may make a significant difference with a narrow base width breast, but much less of a difference if you have a wide chest wall and wide breast “foot print”. Therefore, just because your friend may have a great result with let’s say a 300 cc implant to make her go from a “A” cup to a “C” cup size does not mean that you will have the same result with the same size implant. . Further simply placing implants in a bra to determine the size best for you is not always accurate as the bra often distorts the size, is dependent on the pressure the bra places plus the implant is outside your breast and not under it among other variables. Computer software morphing programs that automatically determine the best implant size can be helpful in some but not all cases (e.g. doesn’t work well in my experience with existing implants, sagging or asymmetric breasts). Using “want to be” photos however are useful if simply provided to the surgeon as I will further explain in a bit.

Answer: Dimensional breast augmentation I use a technique called dimensional breast augmentation which involves taking in a number of factors and measurements, so each patient is unique. That being said, given your height, weight, and your activity level, along with the fact you are considering a lift, I would say you are probably not that far off in choosing an implant in that range. Best thing to do is to see a qualified plastic surgeon that has good breast expertise.

Answer: How Many CC This is a very common question. Deciding on the implant size is the most difficult decision for women during the breast augmentation process. First of all we tend to stress between implants sizes that are very similar. The difference of 30cc is very small and would be very difficult to notice (just for peace of mind). Also know that whatever size you decide on breast augmentation patients are typically extremely happy! I do think it is very important that the breast implant fit your body. The benefit of this day and age is that the different profiles allow your surgeon to match your desired volume to your breast and desires. You don’t want an implant that is too wide or it can make patients look heavier then they truly are currently. Spend time sizing with your surgeon. Trying implants on in the office gives you a realistic idea of what you will look like after surgery. Patients are typically a little bit smaller after the surgery then they appear when sizing implants. So if you are between to implant sizes I would consider going with the bigger implant. You can also bring pictures to your surgeon so they can help guide you to what implant will help you achieve your goals. Also don’t get to fixated on a cup size, go with what looks good to you when sizing with the implants. Spend time with your board certified plastic surgeon to discuss your implant choices.

Answer: Try on sizers! I think you need to try sizers on and determine for yourself what volume you think looks best on you. I think that high profile 360 would work. The best way for you to pick is to see it on for yourself.
