So, I got my BA about 20 days ago. I got 415 cc silicone high profile sientra implants but they look small. I was between 440 cc and 415 cc. Now I really regret not getting the 440 cc even tho I’m sure it’s not that big of a difference. Now I’m thinking I shouldve at least got 475 cc. I was afraid they were going to look too big on me since I have a small frame but I’m not happy with my size. I’ve seen girls smaller than me get like 320 cc and they look bigger than mine
Answer: Breast Implant Size at 3 weeks. At three weeks you will still drop and fluff. As the shape improves, you may find quality rules over quantity. You need to allow your breasts to heal, and your skin/muscle to stretch before revision. The volume of your implant is sitting high, because they have not had a chance to settle. When is is time to revise, if 415 is too small 440 will also be too small. Be sure to follow-up with your plastic surgeon.

CONTACT NOW Answer: Still Too Early It is still far too early to determine how the implants will look on you. It takes 3-6 months for breast implants to truly settle into place. During that time, your implants will drop a bit and your skin will stretch to accommodate the larger volume in your breasts. After all of this happens, it is not uncommon for women to say that they feel their implants fit them a bit better. However, if after six months or so you are still unhappy with your size, a simple implant exchange is a very short and easy follow up surgery.

Answer: BA results Dear rose098, I understand your concern and it is quite normal to be concerned about the outcome following a breast augmentation surgery. However, you are still in the very early stages of the healing process at 20 days post op.Your will need to be patient at this moment and follow what your surgeon has instructed you to do post operatively.At the early stage of the healing process, the tissues around the implants are still swollen. Once the swelling subsides and the implants drop to their final position, you will be able to see the final result of your breast augmentation surgery. Daniel Barrett, MD

Answer: Breast implants Thank you for your questions and photo. Breast implants come in a variety of sizes. Silicone gel breast implants may be round or shaped, smooth or textured. The decision to choose a particular implant is guided by a variety of factors, including patient desire. However, an important consideration in selecting the optimal implant size for a given patient is also the patient's breast base width. If one choose an implant with a diameter that is significantly greater than the patient's breast base width, the patient may end up with a top heavy appearance. Based on your photo the implant choice appears proportional with your frame. And understand that your frame will differ from others. Nonetheless, if you are unhappy with the results, it may be advisable to reach out to your plastic surgeon and visit with him/her to discuss your concerns and further explore your options. Best wishes!

Answer: Are my implants too small for it to be 415 cc? Do all implants brand measure the same size implants or are they different? You are still early in the healing process and what you are seeing are not your final results yet. You may still be experiencing swelling and some bruising at this point in time. It usually takes around 3 to 6 months to fully heal and only by then will you be able to see your final results. Usually, at 4 months, the tissues start to relax and the implants slowly fall into the pockets and settle. The best course of action would be to follow up regularly with your surgeon.
