Hi! I am getting a Breast implant on Monday. I am an A cup now. I'm 5'4 and 165 pounds. I think I'm going 750cc high profile. Is that going to be to big?
Answer: 750cc High Profile Breasts Too Large for 5'4 and 165 pounds
You are nearly 40 lbs over your ideal body weight and this may be a reasonable implant for your body but it is larger than average and does carry additional risks.
There are numerous increased risks associated with this, and I am sure I will not even touch on half of them, but consider the following.
The size of the implant has been associated with:
1.Increased risk of loss of nipple sensation
2.Increased risk for long term breast ptosis (sagging)
3.Increased risk for chest wall deformation (curving of the ribs)
4.Increased risk of rippling or palpable /visible creases
5.Increased risk of lower pole tissue attenuation (thinning of the tissues of the breast)
6.Increased risk of secondary revisionary procedures
These are a few of the risks off the top of my head. Please discuss with your surgeon.
Most importantly, remember that although you are seeking breast enlargement, many women present complaining of breast overgrowth desiring breast reduction. These women report limited physical activity, neck/back/shoulder pain, shoulder grooving from bra straps, numbness in the fingers, rashes beneath the breasts, etc.
Many of these women feel significant relief with reductions as small as 300 cc yet you are considering adding twice that to your breasts. Think it over carefully.
I hope this helps.

Answer: Massive Breast Implants I've never heard of a woman getting implants that size unless he wanted "novelty" breasts for the sake of some form of adult entertainment. At best they will look unnatural, at worse there will be stretching and damage to your tissue.

Answer: Yes, 750cc breast implants are big ones Put simply, yes. They are the largest high profile implant made and my guess is that their intention was probably for a larger, taller woman and they're big for her also. Unless you've had a mastectomy and have no breast tissue, for a 5'4" woman that is really, really big...by definition. Some people are into that and this is art so everyone is entitled to thier opinion. Enjoy.

Answer: Implant Selection Process
Generally speaking, larger implants increase the risk of complications such as implant malposition, which can be very difficult to correct longterm. In order to make an accurate size recommendation, I would need to assess your chest wall and breast mound measurements and characteristics. Unfortunately, there is not a general rule of thumb or objective criteria to implant selection.
Your plastic surgeon will perform several measurements of your chest wall and breast anatomy and determine a range of implants that both fit your chest wall and reach your desired goals.
The next step is to try on this range of implants in the office with your doctor. The key to this success is showing your surgeon the body proportion you desire with a bra sizer and allowing your surgeon to guide you to the right implant. It will be much easier to communicate in implant cc's than cup size when determining the appropriate implant for you.
I wish you a safe recovery and fantastic result.

Answer: 750 cc implants
750 cc implants are very large and your "A" cup breasts may not be able to handle this much volume and dimensions.
