How many ccs will I need to go from a 32AA to a D cup? (Photos)

Thank you for your question and your photographs. Many different factors play a significant role in deciding the best size and shape of the implant. The width of your existing breast, skin cover and elasticity, amount of existing breast tissue are just a few to be considered. Although a large implant is likely to give you a large volume and therefore a full breast, it is very unlikely that it will give you a good cosmetic result, looking natural and long-lasting. I believe that an in-depth consultation with a well experience in board certified Plastic Surgeon is the best way forward. Please do not focus on the number of the cc of the implants, but on the final result to be achieved in proportion with the rest of your body.All the best.Andrea MarandoPlastic and Cosmetic Surgeon, Manchester and London, UK

Good morning!Given your current photos I'm thinking more in the 500-600cc range to achieve a D-DD, but I would have you try on sizers in the office to determine what you felt looked best and gives you the most self-confidence!

Hello, Thank you for your question and photos. You are a great candidate for a breast augmentation! An in person evaluation is needed in order to give you the best recommendation. I would discourage basing implant selection solely on cup size. There are many factors that go into selecting the best implant. These factors includes desired outcomes and current breast measurements. It is important to be respectful to the boundaries of your breast and not select an implant that would be disproportional. An in person consult should be scheduled with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon that specializes in breast procedures. Hope this helps and best of luck!

Depending on the individual anatomy and desired results, estimations and measurements and decisions about implant type should be made for each patient individually after a detailed mutual conversation. The elements that form up the breast shape and size and the overall frame can be different in each person. It will be best to consult a board certified plastic surgeon who is experienced in cosmetic breast surgery in person and discuss your goals and options after a physical examination.Hope this helps,Ali Rıza Öreroğlu, MD FEBOPRASEuropean and Turkish Board Certified Aesthetic, Plastic and Reconstructive SurgeonIstanbul, Turkey

Thanks for your question! I think most of us would agree that you really need to be seen in person to determine what size implant would work for your frame and your breasts. It is important to focus more on getting you a good result and less on the cup size. Please be sure to consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon. Good luck!

Dear missneedboobsnow,
breast implant type and sizing selection is a complicated process and requires a detailed consultation that includes a discussion of your goals, a detailed examination, and a lengthy discussion. But the decision will always start and end with the patient. When it comes to sizing, we have all of our patients find 3 photos of their desired breast size. We ask for naked breast photos because clothing can obscure the true size (push up bras). Next, we consult with patients and go over the photos and take detailed breast measurements during a physical exam. Next, we using a sizing algorithm to determine a range of implants that will work based on the exam and the measurements.Lastly, during the operation, we use silicone sizers in the operating room to see how the size actually looks in the breast. We sit the patient up in the operating room, while asleep of course, and compare the sizer result with their desired look photos. If it is too small, we start the process over with a slightly larger implant. We don't stop until we get the perfect match.Of all of my breast augmentation patients, every one of them has been happy with their size due to this detailed and meticulous process. You don't want to invest time and money into a result that is either too big or too small.You should discuss your concerns with a board-certified plastic surgeon and make sure that your surgeon understands your goals.
