I am 5' 8" and weigh 145 and I wear size 6-8. I currently am a 34 A with no upper pole since I have lost 145 lbs in the past 1.5 years. I want to be a D-DD and fill in my extra skin. I want under the muscle implants. I like the 500-550 cc rice sizers and I want to have my breasts touch when I stand with my arms at my sides. What size should I go with? Thank you!

Answer: Lift needed but possibly implants as well Unfortunately, you have not provided photographs. Since you have lost 145 lbs, you more than likely have a large skin envelope, will not be able to fill out the skin envelope completely with implants alone and would benefit from a lift. It is possible that you would be a candidate for both simultaneously but that would be determined through your appearance. Photographs are required for further evaluation.Best Wishes,Gary Horndeski, M.D.

Answer: Breast Implant Sizing There is no relationship between implant volume and cup size, so to avoid confusion and disappointment, you should look to another method in your surgical planning. In office sizing using purpose build sizers is the most effective way of determining implant volume needs.

Answer: Implant sizing Great question! It is difficult to talk about breast sizing in a forum like this because it really all depends on your chest measurements, since we don't know that sizing cannot be provided. The most important factor is to make sure that the implant fits your body, otherwise it will look awkward. However, your situation may not be as easy as just placing implants. Understand that volume and skin are two separate issues, you cannot just place a huge implant to fill the extra skin - in fact it will be worse, you will just have very large and very droopy breasts. Loosing 145 lbs I would imagine that you have significant excess skin which would necessitate a full breast lift. Therefore, you most likely would need a breast augmentation with a breast lift. Again, without photos and a physical examination, proper recommendations cannot be provided.Best of luck and hope this information helps!
