Hi, I’m 5’5” tall and 120lbs. Pre kids I was around a 30c bra size. I went in to my first appointment with my surgeon and he measured my BWD at 10cm, my NF at 5/6 and ptosis at 4. My goal is to be much larger than I was pre kids. I tried on sizers in the 400cc range and was happy with that look. My surgeon on the other hand comes from a more “natural” look perspective so he seems uncomfortable with my implant size choices. I’m looking in the 420cc range with sientra xtra high. Is this too big?

Answer: Choosing the right size and profile breast implants for you. After I measure and discuss goals with my patients, we then look at pictures of women (my patients) with similar measurements with different size breast implants. 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 is right for them.

Answer: Size too large? Thank you for the question. I appreciate the approach of the consultation that you had. In my clinic, I always take breast measurements and allow patients to try on sizers. Feeling comfortable with the sizer is the most important part of breast augmentation and your future satisfaction. You have to live with the volume, thus you should be the most integral part of the sizing decision. If you liked the 400 range sizers and the 420 xtra fits your measurments, go for it! Good luck on your breast aug journey.
