Cup Size After Mastectomy with Saline Implants?

January 9, 2009
Asked By:sbear in VA

I will be having a right simple mastectomy. I'm a "A" cup, and I'd like to have an idea about the cup size I would have after mastectomy, with 450 to 500cc of saline injected into my tissue expander? I will then have two implants placed on both sides.
