I recently underwent a BA and I am very unhappy with the size. I started off a flat A and got 325&350cc Natrelle style 20's. Under clothes I look completely flat still. It's so bad that I feel embarrassed to take off my shirt in front of my husband bc I don't feel sexy. My PS suggested 400cc, 460cc & 500cc UHP. I don't want to be disappointed again but not looking to be ridiculously big. Stats: 26.5" ribcage 5'7 117lbs wide shoulders, curvy hips

Answer: How many more cc's do I need to get a full 32D? I agree with what has been written by others. So here is something else to think about. First: 450cc is essentially a pound of weight you are adding to each half of your chest wall. Second: The chest wall and the abdomen are on continuous vertical flat plane. Third: Gravity works and over time the weight can pull the implants down, look up " bottoming out". Fourth: If you exercise, run, jog, aerobics etc you will have an added factor helping the gravitational affect on your implants, with constant bouncing of your breasts. Fifth: If you sleep without a bra and sleep on your side. What is stopping the implants from slowly migrating to the side of your chest wall. Sixth: The more time a breast augmentation is operated on the more the risk of problems increases.Your present augmentation looks great, I would suggest you take your time and be patient, live with them I think you will be surprised. I Hope this other perspective helpsGood LuckStephen M. Davis, MD, FACSGreen Hills Plastic Surgery

Answer: Choosing Implant Size There is not a direct correlation between breast implant size and cup size as the cup size varies greatly among companies and even within the same company. Moreover, cup size can vary based on who is performing the measurement. The size of the implants are based on a combination of a patient's goals and objectives and her anatomy. In order to provide a natural looking augmentation, the surgeon needs to evaluate many factors including soft tissue coverage, skin laxity, chest wall width, breast imprint width, the shape of the breasts and relative level of constriction to ensure that the breast implants are appropriate for your body.
