A surgeon recommended 350-375cc range high profile, silicone breast implants placed under the muscle with an inframammary incision. I liked the look of 350cc sizers, however I'm concerned about the high profile with a 375cc implant potentially being too large on my frame. I am 5'3", around 100 lbs and pretty narrow/athletic/petite build. I don't want anything disproportionately large in clothes, but I don't mind a bigger/rounder look in a bikini. Do you agree with this recommendation?
Answer: 375cc high profile silicone implant appropriate for small petite frame? If you like the 350cc sizers, then I think you will be happy with the HP 375cc implants. One advantage of a HP implant is that it will be a narrower implant that should fit your petite frame. Good luck!

Answer: Choosing implant size Hi! A 350-375cc high profile silicone seems like a reasonable implant choice, but I cannot say with full certainty without knowing your measurements. One of the most important measurements is the width of the breast. You do not want an implant that is too wide or too narrow for your breast. Knowing the dimensions of the breasts are important to determine what implant size and profile will fit the patient properly. If you like the look of the 350cc sizer when you try it on, then chances are you will like the 350cc or 375cc implants once they are in. The most important thing is that you feel comfortable and confident in your decision. It may be a good idea to follow up with your plastic surgeon again and discuss your concerns.Best of luck,

Answer: Is it 350 or 375 for me? Hello JP00998. There's no way to make a diagnosis online and to give you a recommendation for size without an examination. So this is just a guess. Based on your measurements bigger than 350 or 375 seem reasonable in my mind. There are many sizes that would look great on you and you should work closely with your PS to find the ideal size. Here are some tips that work really well in my practice:1) Guiding patients to explore reasonable options for breast implant size, usually two to three similar sizes, which allows the patient to visualize how different volumes affect their breast cup. 2) The best guide for a final breast implant size recommendation is derived using measurements from the patient’s own breasts and chest. 3) When measurements are considered then options for sizes can be presented. 4) I use the Mentor Volume Sizing System of breast sizers to demonstrate how these different volumes will look on a patient’s body. 5) This methods offers good reliability and is simple to use, but is not perfect.When patients feel confused we ask them back to the office to try sizing until they're very confident with the choice they're making. Best, Dr. ALDO.
