Will 385cc get me to a D cup? (Photos)

It is very difficult to determine the exact size and shape implant you will require to best match your ideal breast image without an examination by a board certified plastic surgeon. Not just any board certified plastic surgeon, but one with many years of frequently performing breast augmentation surgery including different approaches, techniques and implant choices. This is because several measurements not to mention your breast characteristics are needed to determine the optimal implant size to obtain your goals. Without knowing these dimensions it would be difficult to make this determination. For example, the existing base width of your breast will determine, in many cases, the maximal volume per implant profile that you can accommodate. To illustrate; a 100 cc difference may make a significant difference with a narrow base width breast, but much less of a difference if you have a wide chest wall and wide breast “foot print”. Therefore, just because your friend may have a great result with let’s say a 350 cc implant to make her go from a “A” cup to a “C” cup size does not mean that you will have the same result with the same size implant. . Further simply placing implants in a bra to determine the size best for you is not always accurate as the bra often distorts the size, is dependent on the pressure the bra places plus the implant is outside your breast and not under it among other variables. Computer software morphing programs that automatically determine the best implant size can be helpful in some but not all cases (e.g. doesn’t work well in my experience with existing implants, sagging or asymmetric breasts). Using “want to be” photos however are useful if simply provided to the surgeon as I will further explain in the below link.

Hello,Although many surgeons are willing to indulge this repetitive question that women have, the truth is there is no accurate formula to equate implant volume to bra cup size. Besides, what you want it a look of proportion that satisfies you, not a tag in an undergarment.Give it time, as you will drop and fluff, and will probably appear fuller in a few months. Best of luck!  

Judging by your photos, I would have to say that you will likely have gone up 2 cup sizes to put you around a D cup.Having said that, it depends on partially where you get sized and fitted.  Victoria secret tends to run smaller and has added padding, therefore as mentioned you may size up to a DD.My feeling is that the actual cup size is not as important as the look you were going for.  If you have achieved the look that you wanted then the surgery was a success.  You will have to be patient and wait about 2 months after your surgery to get an accurate assessment of your bra size.Good luck.
