Hi, I'm tossing up between getting 270cc and 300cc I have a b cup now and am 5,8" and 53kg. My questions is which size would look more natural? I don't want to end up getting a size that is too big or going smaller and wishing I had got bigger
Answer: Choosing Between Different Implant Sizes This question is difficult to answer without knowing your overall measurements such as your base width diameter, tissue thickness, skin elasticity and a number of other factors. What I would suggest in this situation is that 30 cc will not be a very large difference and I would not be overly anxious about which implant to select. If these implants are sized appropriately for their base width, they should look reasonably natural. In general, the most common complaints of patients with regards to size is that they wished they had gone larger. If you like both sizes and are having a hard time deciding, I would recommend considering the 300 cc implant as this is still a fairly modest sized implant particularly for somebody who is 5’8”. It would be worth an additional visit with your surgeon to discuss your concerns and which option will be best for your anatomy.

Answer: Breat implant choice The difference between 270 cc's and 300 cc's is negligible. It is only 30 cc's which is two tablespoons of size difference.. What is more significant is the shape of the implant chosen. ~300 cc's of a moderate or moderate plus implant may be too natural (flat and wide) for some patients. A high profile implant gives more prominence which many patients love and others resists.There is a subtle difference between natural and nice. Presently, you are probably natural. But what you really want is to appear nicer, in and out of clothing. So be sure to try them on with a sports bra/swim suit. But also try them on with looser fitting clothing which tends to make them appear smaller. Remember that the most common reason to have them re-done is because the patient realizes later that she really like larger/nicer, rather than settling for smaller, more "natural".

Answer: Size choices Hello,These implants will be very similar in appearance. I recommend that you try on the implant sizers with a form fitting T-shirt to get an idea of the look you will achieve. Patients often report that breast implants seem a little larger when sizing so if you are comfortable with the look of either than keep in mind that you may find they look a bit smaller after. Your Plastic Surgeon/team will be a great resource to give you advice and help you decide.All the best

Answer: Deciding on size? Greetings! Deciding on a particular size is always challenging and is a personal choice you need to make in consultation with your plastic surgeon. Smaller implants usually look more natural, but there's not much of a difference between 275 and 300 cc. Best wishes, Dr. Aldo

Answer: Deciding between 270cc and 300cc round breast implants which will be more natural Thank you for the question. Online consultants will not be able to provide you with specific enough advice to be truly helpful. Much will depend on your specific anatomic features; for example, a 30 cc difference may be noticeable on a very petite patient but not on a patient with a larger frame. Ultimately, careful communication of your goals (in my practice I prefer the use of goal pictures, direct examination/communication in front of a full-length mirror, in bra sizers, and computer imaging) as well as careful measurements (dimensional planning) will be critical. Generally speaking, the best online advice I can give to ladies who are considering breast augmentation surgery ( regarding breast implant size/profile selection) is: 1. Concentrate on choosing your plastic surgeon carefully. Concentrate on appropriate training, certification, and the ability of the plastic surgeon to achieve the results you are looking for. Ask to see lots of examples of his/her work. 2. Have a full discussion and communication regarding your desired goals with your plastic surgeon. This communication will be critical in determining breast implant size/type/profile will most likely help achieve your goals. In my practice, the use of photographs of “goal” pictures (and breasts that are too big or too small) is very helpful. For example, I have found that the use of know words such as “natural” or "C or D cup” etc means different things to different people and therefore prove unhelpful. Also, as you know, cup size varies depending on him who makes the bra; therefore, discussing desired cup size may also be inaccurate. Again, the use of computer imaging has been very helpful during the communication process, in our practice. 3. Once you feel you have communicated your goals clearly, allow your plastic surgeon to use his/her years of experience/judgment to choose the breast implant size/profile that will best meet your goals. Again, in my practice, this decision is usually made during surgery, after the use of temporary intraoperative sizers.I hope this (and the attached link/video, dedicated to breast augmentation surgery concerns) helps. Best wishes for an outcome that you will be very pleased with.
