I'm 5'10", 140 lbs, active runner, 39 yrs old, and 34B. What size of Sientra Breast Implants do I need? (photos)

I'm going with gummy bear implants. I want a very natural look. I don't like the rounded look. I tried on 275cc to 300 cc at my consult. However after having done some research I feel that I want more, but I want to look proportional for my body. I'm a runner so thus plays into my decision. Pre-op on Wed. I'm going to leave it up to the surgeon, she said she would test out. Question is 400cc to much to fit? I haven't discussed about this size yet. Initial consult was a bit overwhelming! Thanks!

To date Sientra's warranty is as the surgeon has stated below. Regarding this I have placed over 1000 gummy bear implants and have yet to see a capsular contracture with any Sientra implant or deflation.  Of course there is much to consider, as a single surgeon who has done over...

In my opinion, the biggest difference between shaped and round implants is the fullness in the upper pole of the breasts.  If you want a more full look in the upper pole, go with the 475cc round implants.  If you want a more natural look in the upper pole, go with the 425cc shaped...
