I'm 5'1 & 125lbs. before :full A small B got 455cc high profile silicone implants. Any suggestions? (photos)

Thank you for your question for the photos.  As you pointed out, 3 weeks post op is pretty early to judge your final results from your breast augmentation as they haven't completely settled yet.  For someone your size, I don't think bigger implants would help you achieve the results your seeking.  455cc implants are pretty large for someone with your frame.  If they were much bigger they could expand beyond your chest wall and look very unnatural.  Sometimes women get caught up on cup size rather than results.  It looks like you have a nice result and will probably end up being around a D cup size.  If after six months you are not happy with your results, consult with your plastic surgeon so that they can advise you.  Best of luck.  

It is really too soon to tell anything about your final results. It can take 3-6 months. But cup size is never a good indicator of breast volume as they can vary greatly between bra manufacturers. Focus instead on the look of your breasts. Best, Dr. Nazarian

Thank
you very much for your question and photographs. From your pictures, it would appear that your
implants are very large for your chest size and frame. The implant size you chose will clearly
result in a full D cup. However, it will
take from three to six months for your implants to settle, and for the breast
skin envelope to enlarge, so as to accommodate these high volume implants.

Hello,There is no equation that correlates implant volume to cup size, so don't expect anyone to give you a valid answer, unless of course they tell you what I'm telling you. Your implants are up to your shoulders right now. Give them 6 months and they will have dropped and fluffed. Best of luck.

I appreciate your question.



It will take 3-6 months for you to feel
comfortable having implants in your body and for them to settle. This time
allows for you to physically and psychologically adapt to your new body image.
There are many variables that contribute to a breast augmentation's final
result. Preop size and shape, IMF location, location of the implants and type
of implant. Patients heal at different rates and each breast will sometimes
heal at a different rate. Rest, relax, recover and heal. Please Express your concerns
to your surgeon so he/she can examine you. Then reassess at 6 months.



The best way to assess and give true
advice would be an in-person exam.

Please see a board-certified plastic
surgeon that specializes in aesthetic and restorative breast surgery.

Best of luck!

Judging by your photos, it appears that you have a very nice result.  The implants over time should drop and settle and fill the lower pole of your breasts.  Generally, I tell my patients that at 2 months postop you will look good, and at 4 months times you will look great.  It will take some time before your will be able to judge how big they really are.It is always difficult to give advice on sizing online, but judging by your height and weight, the implant sizes you currently have may be about the largest you could go.  Yes, you can always put in larger implants, but usually it leads to further complications down the line.Hope that helps.  Sit tight and assess your results in about 4 months times.

Thank you for your question and photos. Typically we do not measure in cup size, as they tend to vary. Your breasts will settle and become fuller in the bottom, which may fill out a bra better. Wait a good 3 months. All the best, 

3 weeks after breast augmentation is still quite early.It is likely that with time you will be very happy with your new breast size and shape. Definitely wait several more months before making a judgment about your new size, as you aren't seeing your final results yet. Thanks for sharing!

Thank you for your question and photograph.  Though your overall breast size will not increase, as the implants drop and settle, the distribution of size will start to settle along the lower border of your breast which will affect how it fills your bra, and cup size.  I think you will find that you will be in the D range once your results mature.  I know its difficult, but hang in there and allow more time to pass before fitting an appropriate bra to your breasts.  

I wouldn't worry about what cup size they will be. Concentrate on whether or not you have the look you want. If they look big enough to you then they are. If they look to small to you then they are. Your opinion is the only one that matters. There will be changes in shape that will influence how you interpret size so withhold judgment for a few more months.
