650cc Breast Implants to Get C or D Cups?

A
alli45Oct 19, 2009

I am 5'7" and 165 pounds (I have a large frame and have always been heavier than I look - currently I fit in size 10 pants). My breast size is 36A.I recently had my first consult for Breast augmentation and given my measurements and desire to be a full C/small D, the doctor recommended moderate profile, silicone 650cc, placed sub-muscularly, because he thinks much smaller and I'll have a large space between. 650 seems huge to me. Is it too big?

Were you happy with your size and shape before the deflation? If so, then I would recommend using the same implant. If you desire a fuller shape, then I would discuss this with your surgeon who should be able to better educate you about your options. In general, increasing from a 325 to a...

Thank you for the question. Breast implants do not necessarily change after pregnancy. However, your breasts and skin may change. The changes can be related to skin elasticity and the amount of  weight gain/loss around the time of pregnancy. These changes can affect how your breasts ...
