Hello, I had 280ccs anatomical implants put in a year ago and I feel like it's too small. I litteraly barley eat so my breasts looks bigger in comparison. I want to know if I'm a canidate to go larger (370-400ccs). I want it to look bigger from the side. Not in profile but larger "bugle" from the front out to the arms. My bwd is 12,5 cm
Answer: Larger implants There is no problem going larger, you just need to decide whether it's worth the cost. I think your current result is quite nice and would leave it alone. Not worth shelling out more money.

Answer: Size Yes, based on your measurements, you can go with a bigger implant. The implant selection should be based on a combination of your desired size, soft tissue dynamics, breast base diameter and skin elasticity. I recommend an in-office examination as well as a detailed discussion with a surgeon who you are comfortable with. Finally, make sure your surgeon is a Double-Board Certified Plastic Surgeon certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS), a member of the American Society of Plastic Surgery (ASPS) and the American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS).Best,Dr. DesaiBeverly Hills Institute for Aesthetic Plastic SurgeryHarvard Educated, Beverly Hills & Miami Beach Trained, Double-Board Certified Plastic Surgeon

Answer: Going Larger Although it is always difficult to say without a proper exam, but in general I recommend going 100cc larger than the current implants to appreciate a noticeable difference. So you are pretty much on with your assessment. Anatomic implants do give a more natural look with comparison to round implants. Round implants have more projection and can give more upper pole fullness.Dimensional planning will be key here and a thorough exam with evaluation of the implant measurements can help you achieve your goal. Make certain you see a board certified plastic surgeon that has experience in breast revision.Hope that helps.

Answer: Implant size Dear nueboobz,determining the ideal breast size and matching that goal for the patient is the most difficult part of breast augmentation. It starts and ends with the patient. 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 its 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, everyone of them have 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.Daniel Barrett, MD, MHA, MS Certified, American Board of Plastic Surgery Member, Am.
