Is 650cc too large? (Photo)

Thank you for your question.
Without a thorough examination, it would be difficult to say. When getting a breast augmentation procedure, sometimes you can "try on" the implant sizes during your pre-operative appointment. You will bring a tight fitting shirt and insert the implants into a bra to mimic how the implants will look when placed. This size will be the basis for your procedure with some leniency to the surgeon at the time of operation.

Thanks for your question! Based on your height and weight, I don't think that would be too big for your frame. Hopefully you were able to try on implants or see B&A photos to understand what your result will be. Best of luck!

Dear pinkyoj94,
breast implant type and sizing selection is a complicated process and requires a detailed consultation that includes a discussion of your goals, a detailed examination, and a lengthy discussion. But the decision will always start and end with the patient. When it comes to sizing, we have all of our patients find 3 photos of their desired breast size. We ask for naked breast photos because clothing can obscure the true size (push up bras). Next, we consult with patients and go over the photos and take detailed breast measurements during a physical exam. Next, we using a sizing algorithm to determine a range of implants that will work based on the exam and the measurements.Lastly, during the operation, we use silicone sizers in the operating room to see how the size actually looks in the breast. We sit the patient up in the operating room, while asleep of course, and compare the sizer result with their desired look photos. If it is too small, we start the process over with a slightly larger implant. We don't stop until we get the perfect match.Of all of my breast augmentation patients, every one of them has been happy with their size due to this detailed and meticulous process. You don't want to invest time and money into a result that is either too big or too small.You should discuss your concerns with a board-certified plastic surgeon and make sure that your surgeon understands your goals.

The same implant volume can look very different on different patients. Based on your stated goals, the 500-600cc implant should be able to increase you by multiple cup sizes. Many surgeons have sample implants you can "try on" to give you an idea of how you may look after surgery. I encourage you to return to your surgeon to further discuss your concerns.

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.
