Hi’ I am only 4’11. Currently A-B cup depending on what bra. I don’t want a super big breast. I just want something that will look proportioned to my body. a full B cup is enough for me. I am not sure whether I get an over or under the muscle BA or if 200cc is enough. My waistline is 23-24. If I measure my band (lower part of boob) using a tape measure, it’s 26.
Answer: Is 200cc enough for me? Should I go under or over muscle? It is very difficult to estimate an ideal implant volume based on height, weight, and photographs alone. I would expect that a 200cc implant would result in a very aesthetically pleasing outcome. Better and more accurate information can be obtained during a formal consultation. Once your board certified plastic surgeon has examined you and understands your goals, he or she can guide you through the implant selection process. Most patients do best with implants placed under the muscle but your surgeon can help you make this decision as well.

Answer: Breast implants The procedure takes one to two hours. You will likely be given general anesthesia, during which you will be "asleep" and pain-free. The surgeon will make a cut under your breasts, under your arms, or around your nipples, depending on your body, the type of implant, and how much enlargement is being done. The surgeon will put the breast implant into a pocket above or below your chest muscle. After the implant is in place, the surgeon will close the cuts with sutures or surgical tape.

Answer: Breast Augmentation A breast augmentation under the muscle has a lower risk of capsular contracture. Typically most patient will have their breast implants under the muscle. Some patient choose to have their breast implants over the muscle if they don't want their pectoral muscle function to be affected. Another reason to go over the muscle is to avoid animation deformity. If patients also are looking for an overfilled fake look, they may choose to have their implants over the muscle. It is best to have a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon. They will be able to determine which size implants would be best for your breasts.

Answer: Breast augmentation Hello and thank you for the question. Based on your photographs and description, 200 cc seems very reasonable. I would recommend placement under the muscle as this is safer long-term and feel better. However, the process of choosing implants is a complex one with many variables. Therefore, I recommend that you have an extensive and detailed discussion about your goals and expectations with your plastic surgeon. I wish you the best of luck. Vasileios Vasilakis, MD.

Answer: Size Selection Good morning, 200cc sounds like an excellent choice- but you should try on the implant sizers with several different tops at your PS office to confirm that this will provide you with your goal look and size. I recommend under the muscle- they look better, feel better, last longer, mammograms are better, and the risk of capsular contracture is much lower!
