11.7cm or 11.2cm Breast Implants for a 13cm BWD?

December 30, 2009
Asked By:Star24 in Texas

I'm going to be getting moderate profile silicone implants by Allergan combined with a periareolar lift. My doctor is going to use the dual plane method. My BWD is 13cm with my ribcage being 30". I've been on Allergan's website looking at sizes and the implants that are at my BWD are too big for what I want which is to regain upper pole fullness with little projection. The 2 implant sizes I'm leaning towards have a diameter of 11.7cm or 11.2cm. How much smaller can I go from my BWD?
