My surgery is on June 19th. I've already had all my consultations and I'm having saline put on. I'm 5'7, 130 pounds in good shape. I have a small, pointy 34 b currently. We have decided on a c but I want to make sure I'm a full c. I don't want to be dissatisfied after surgery. What should I do?

Answer: Breast Implants - size change day of surgery I would visit with your plastic surgeon again! In my practice, patients will frequently come in for consultations numerous times even without me present to ensure getting as precise of an outcome as possible. My staff is very well trained to field questions regarding size and shape so you can review the recommendation without feeling pressured by the physician. I encourage bringing a friend or relative to help make the decision if you are having trouble with the final decision. Asking questions, reviewing options and taking time with your decision shows me as a physician that you are doing your homework and entering the surgery with appropriate expectations. Best Wishes!!

Answer: Sizing implants to achieve your goals You state your desire to have a full "C" cup. What a full "C" cup to you or others is a point of personal reference and the volume of cc's of the implant changes breasts differently depending on your body type, torso and breast. I prefer patients to show pictures of the breasts they want to achieve and then together we decide the volume goal range. This might be adjusted slightly even intraoperatively and sizers can be placed in the pocket to better assess things during the surgery itself. We always have a full range of the implants we feel we might use in each patient. With good communication and workings you should be able to get the results you seek.
