I had my consultation with my doctor and he was fine, he told me I would need a lift along with implants to achieve the fullness I was looking for. Well I went in today to pick a size and I wasn't recommended a size by him and I was helped by an assistant. Is this normal? Should I keep looking? I had no idea what size would be good for the look I was trying to achieve. I was told to pick a few I like and let the surgeon determine which was best.

Answer: Determining breast implant size Hello, thank you for your question. Finding the perfect size can be indecisive. Finding the right size for you is a combination of your wish pics and your chest wall measurements. So we typically use the measurement of you your chest wall to get a range of what sizes will look on your frame. Then depending on what profile you like high or moderate profile. You should definitely try sizes and ultimately the surgeon can decide based on what you like can choose the best implant size and profile that will fit you. The final decision is yours but its good to work with your surgeon to make that decision Feel free to check out our website to learn about sizing.

Answer: Choosing the right size and profile breast implants for you After I measure and discuss goals with my patients, we then look at pictures of women (my patients) with similar measurements with different size and style breast implants. They also get to see what they would look like when the breasts have fully dropped and fluffed and in clothes. You get to see actual results and the surgeon's experience and not a virtual idea of what can be achieved. Women tell me that this process is very helpful in determining what size and style breast implant is right for them. Dr. Ted Eisenberg, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and Author.

Answer: Breast implant size Great question! In some practices, the surgeon picks the size during the surgery. In my practice, I like for my patience to pick the size so that they know what the outcome is going to be. I let my patients try the different sized implants in my office and then they can see what they are going to look like. If one of my patients chooses a size that I think it’s going to be too big or too small, then we can have a discussion about it before the surgery so that I can explain the implications of that choice. If you aren’t comfortable letting your surgeon choose your size, and ultimately the outcome that you will live with, then you can get a second consultation. Hope that helps. Best of luck!
