What Bra Size Do You Think I Will End Up With After 285cc?

Breast size baised on what bra you will is tremendously variable. As you probably already know you can go to three different department stores and easily fit three different bra sizes. Victorias secret is that her bras run small so you buy a larger size and feel better, good trick huh? In your case it's hard to say. 285 is a very conservative implant size but you are also very small. I'd say full B in some bras and small C in others. Give your body 6-9 months to get used to the implants and time for them to settle and I'll bet you end up super happy. Take care, Dr K

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.The choice of 285 cc implants under the muscle is a reasonable recommendation. It is too early to assess the results. Allow yourself time to heal which may take 6 months. At that time, you and your surgeon can assess if your result met your goals and expectations.

The same size implant will have different results on various patients depending on their frame.  You will have a better idea in a few weeks, once the swelling has resolved.

It is a bit late to ask that question. You  may get into a "C" cup but that is jsut a guess. You will have to wait a few weeks to months for the swelling to go down and then you can get sized in a store.

It can be difficult to predict a bra size after a breast augmentation, and that is why we focus on the 'look' after breast implants rather than a particular cup size. The correct size bra will an exercise in trial and error, though if you like the look you have after your procedure, and you should, buy the bra which flatters your figure and taste, and if the number on the tag is the 'wrong' cup size, cut out the tag.
