I don’t want heavy implants and am very much a tummy sleeper so I don’t want large implants. That said, can I make implants in the 300-400cc work with a bwd of 16? I am having trouble finding examples of this in others. Thank you!!
Answer: Implants With a breast width of 16 cm, the 400 cc implants will be on the large size and might make sleeping on the girls impossible. You might find just getting implants will no longer let you sleep on your abdomen.

Answer: Choosing the right size and profile breast implants for you I recommend an in person consultation with a plastic surgeon to discuss your goals and be measured. After I measure and discuss goals with my patients, we then look at pictures of women (my patients) with similar measurements with different size and style breast implants, and they choose what looks right for them. They also get to see what they would look like when the breasts have fully dropped and fluffed and in clothes. You get to see actual results and the surgeon's experience and not a virtual idea of what can be achieved. Women tell me that this process is very helpful in determining what size and style breast implant is right for them. Dr. Ted Eisenberg, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and Author.

Answer: BWD of 16: how will an implant 3+ cm smaller work with my bwd measurement? Can I consider mod/mod+ under 400cc’s? ? The best cosmetic result in any particular breast augmentation patient depends on a variety of factors, including: your individual anatomy, realistic expectations, a thorough discussion with the plastic surgeon about the options, and an understanding of the pros and cons of any particular implant choice. Proper sizing is not just about the number of cc’s. The thickness of your tissue, breast dimensions which include the width, height, and projection, as well as chest wall width all need to be considered when choosing an implant. Trying on implant “sizers” of various shapes and volumes while wearing a tight t-shirt, bra, or bathing suit at a preoperative visit will help you and your surgeon choose the optimal implant. Keep in mind that following the advice from a surgeon on this or any other website who proposes to tell you what to do without examining you, physically feeling the tissue, assessing your desired outcome, taking a full medical history, and discussing the pros and cons of each operative procedure would not be in your best interest. I would suggest you find a plastic surgeon certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and ideally a member of the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS) that you trust and are comfortable with. You should discuss your concerns with that surgeon in person. Robert Singer, MD FACS La Jolla, California

Answer: Breast implants I never felt the breast diameter thing was a worthwhile way of selecting implsnt size. It’s really just a gimmick dreamt up by a surgeon about 29 years ago. Most implant sizes I use are between 300 and 400 cc’s. I don’t know what size you were recommended but ignore the bwd. It’s a faulty way to select implant size
