5'7", 160 lbs (and losing), 34A, no kids. A PS recommended 457cc based on my measurements. When asked what cup size I want to be, I say a full C small D. But truthfully, I dont know what a full C small D looks like! Help! Suggestions and advice will be greatly appreciated! What result will 457cc mod plus yield?
Answer: Implants alone are not enough At size 34 A each 100 cc’s of implant corresponds to 1 cup size change. 475 cc implants would take you up 4 cup sizes to a large E small F. I do not recommend implants that large since they will extrude inferiorly and laterally requiring revision. Since your breasts are drooping I recommend a simultaneous lift. Using only a circumareola incision it is possible to reshape your breast tissue creating upper pole fullness, elevate them higher on the chest wall and more medial to increase your cleavage. Through the same incision, implants can be placed. Aligning the areola, breast tissue and implant over the bony prominence of the chest wall maximizes anterior projection with a minimal size implant. Small round textured silicone gel implants placed retro-pectoral look and feel more natural, are more stable, less likely to ripple or have complications needing revision.Best Wishes,Gary Horndeski, M.D.

Answer: Breasts size with 457 implant Dear coco, Thanks for submitting your picture. From your pictures it appears that you have a small A cup. The most important factor in implants size selection is the measurment of the chest and breasts cup. Since you say that your chest size is 34 and assuming that the measurment is correct, a 457cc will increase your cup size to a 34 full C which is a very attractive size. To be a small D you will need a 600cc implants. Most importantly, consult with experienced board certified plastic surgeons and check the before and after pictures to make sure that you like the results. Best of luck, Dr Widder

Answer: Cup size is a terrible way to describe breast dimensions 'Cup size' is an inaccurate and misleading descriptor of breast dimension and volume. Choose an implant based on the dimensions of your breast for the best possible long term result.

Answer: What size to choose? I agree with my plastic surgery colleagues...There is no way to accurately predict postoperative cup size. In general, a 400ish implant will give at least two "full" cup sizes of enhancement from whereever that patient is starting out. I think personally a 457 cc silicone gel implant would be a bit big for your frame from looking at your photos. The breast "skin" and tissues can only "stretch so much" at any one time with breast augmentation, and I cannot say this absolutely without seeing you in person and measuring you - but my impression is that that implant is too big for your tissues and frame and frankly "may not fit". I would discuss this with your plastic surgeon and choose an implant that best fits your tissues. I hope this helps!
