My chest wall measures 13.2cm with and A cup bra size. I am deciding between Moderate profile round silicone implants. One is 350cc a diameter of 13.1cm and projection of 4.4cm and the other 375cc with a diameter of 13.3 and projection of 4.5cm. They will be placed under the muscle. I am chasing a natural look without having to use anatomical implants. What results can I expect and can you make any other recommendations please? I am 36ys, 5'7" 131lbs. Breast fed two children.

Answer: Implant Sizing There are several factors that plastic surgeons consider when recommending implant sizes. I consider two factors when selecting implants for my patients:1. Dimensional planning2. Gel Implant Sizing systemDimensional 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. Hope this helps.Dr.BasuHouston, TX

Answer: What implant size. I absolutely agree with Dr. Pousti's comments below. Photos communicate best, your surgeon has the experience to choose the best implant to meet your goals. I would ad that I DOUBT either of the implants you mention will meet your goals based on the cup size you mentioned. At 5'7" with your base diameter you would almost certainly require what will ultimately be a fair amount larger total volume.
