It really depends on your complexion! If you are too skinny.. DEFINETELY it will be big! But if you are proportioned, then probably not. That also depends on the kind of implants your surgeon uses. And as importantis the amount of breast and gland if you have! If yours are too small, then they won't because it will create strechmarks all over it (if they are able to place it).
A D cup implies large breasts regardless of the frame. There's nothing wrong with that if that's the look that you want.
I would not focus on height or weight or chest wall size or cup size. This introduces too many variables that can obfuscate focus. I would try on sizers in the office and pick the volume you like. Then let your plastic surgeon select the appropriate profile. Find a plastic surgeon with ELITE credentials who performs hundreds of breast augmentations each year. Then look at the plastic surgeon's website before and after photo galleries to get a sense of who can deliver the results. Kenneth Hughes, MD Los Angeles, CA
I consider two factors when selecting implants for my patients: 1.Dimensional planning 2.Gel Implant Sizing system Dimensional planning – The measurements of your chest wall are taken. Also, the breast dimensions including the height, width, and current dimensions of each breast form the basis of dimensional planning. Based on these measurements, the implant size is recommended. This will give you a unique breast implant that is suited for your body frame. However, there are some limitations of what size we can recommend. For instance, some implants may just be too big for a narrow chest wall. Your surgeon can review this with you during the consultation. Gel Implant Sizing system – During the preliminary breast implant consultation, you will be provided with an option to “try on” a variety of implant shapes and sizes. You can also visualize the possible outcomes of your surgery which helps you to get that perfect size to give you the shape that you longed for. This way your preferences are known and you can then pick a range of implants that will “fit” just right to give a soft natural fuller look. Lastly, please make sure your surgeon is board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery. The proper credentials and certification matters. Hope this helps. Dr. Basu Houston, TX
Not necessarily. Your body proportions are important. In a person with a relatively longer and wider chest a D cup may look natural. While in a person with a shorter and narrower chest, a D cup may look huge.
