I am a 130lb, 26 year old female who has scheduled a breast augmentation with a plan of getting 350-375CC silicone submuscular implants. My current size is maybe an AA, and with my wider shoulders and ribcage I’m worried about looking heavier. Another fear is them being unsymmetrical or too large that they’re protruding and unappealing. Will the implants move more naturally/jiggle over time? Also is 8 weeks postop enough recovery to attend a wedding? Would appreciate any advice on size, thanks

Answer: Implant selection Implant selection is best done with your board certified plastic surgeon. During a consultation you will discuss your goals for surgery and measurements will be taken of your breasts. In addition to volume, you will also select type, style, and profile. Many surgeons have sample implants you can "try on" to get an idea of how you may look after surgery. I've included a video I hope you find helpful.

Answer: Should I be concerned about implant sizing on my frame or asymmetry? Hello and thank you for posting. Not really. The size seems to be a good choice for your frame and asymmetry will be minimal. Basically the same asymmetries you have now, so nothing to worry about. Your breasts will behave more naturally once they drop and swelling goes down ( this can take up to 6 months), but implants under the muscle tend to “giggle’ less then implants over the muscle. On the upside, implants under the muscle tend to stay in their spot for longer which means less eventual implant sagging. And you can certainly attend a weeding at 8 weeks post op!
