Will 650cc saline implants or 700cc saline look too big for my body frame? (Photo)

Question

Will 650 cc’s or 700 cc’s saline implants look too big on me. I am 5’7, 187 pounds, under bust is 36 inches, over is 40 inches, gap between breast is about 2 inches. I currently wear a 38C / 36 DD in VS bras. I don’t want to be humongous or regretful for being too small. Your advice is appreciated. TIA

More important with the "look" is if your tissues can safely hold that size of an implant.  If the implant selected is too large or wide for your skin and tissues to hold, unpredictable things can happen that often result in a second, more expensive and involved surgery.See a plastic surgeon to assess and measure your tissues and discuss what is possible.

Kenneth Hughes, MD · Answer

Tall women with larger frames and broader chest, shoulders, and hips can often handle larger implants that would make smaller women's chests look overcrowded and heavier. I would recommend that you go with the size that boosts your self-esteem, and fits your anatomy. Implants of 600cc and higher will create more tissue thinning over time, have more potential for rippling, more potential for bottoming out, greater likelihood of breast lift revisions, etc.

Good morning!

The key to proper size selection is measuring your chest, communicating your desired goals with your PS based on goal/wish pics that you bring in and show them, and finally trying on the implant sizers with a surgical bra in the office. It's a process but it works- that way you make sure you get the size and results you want- make sure your PS hears you!!

Being a C/D cup and adding 600cc of volume will leave you quite large. Implants are heavy and over time will stretch the lower pole of your breasts.It’s difficult to say exactly what size/shape implant you’ll need without a physical exam, but be sure to discuss in detail with your plastics surgeon your goals.Good luck!

Ronald J. Edelson, MD · Answer

I would stick to the smaller size 600 cc. That’s already quite large in my opinion. If implants aren’t too large they will sag and stretch the skin out.
