I'm 21, looking into getting an augmentation. What's a good size to go up to? I'm currently an A and would be happy with a C or possibly D
Answer: Implant size and volume If you are size 32 or 34, each 100 cc of implant corresponds to 1 cup size change. If you are size 36 or 38, each 200 cc of implant corresponds the 1 cup size change. From this, you can determine the volume required to achieve your desired goal.

Answer: Considering size For comfort and to keep the risk of complications low it is best to select an implant that fits your frame. Either a C or small D cup would look nice on you. The best place to begin is a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon near you for a consultation. During this important meeting measurements will be taken of your breasts (this is different than bra sizing) and you will discuss your desired look from surgery. Options will then be presented for you to consider. You and your surgeon can select the implant that's best for you. I've included a video I hope you find helpful.

Answer: Choosing the right size and profile breast implants for you I recommend an in person consultation with a plastic surgeon to discuss your goals and be measured. After I measure and discuss goals with my patients, we then look at pictures of women (my patients) with similar measurements with different size and style breast implants. They also get to see what they would look like when the breasts have fully dropped and fluffed and in clothes. You get to see actual results and the surgeon's experience and not a virtual idea of what can be achieved. Women tell me that this process is very helpful in determining what size and style breast implant is right for them. Dr. Ted Eisenberg, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and Author.

Answer: Breast Size This is a question that we are asked frequently during our consultations. There is no 'correct' answer as each person has individual preferences and an overall comfort level for their body. That having been said, the ideal breast size is compatible with the general body structure of the person. Height, rib cage width, hip width play an important role in the ideal breast size. This is called the golden ratio. This golden ratio is important in terms of aesthetics, naturalness and comfort of the person. From your photos, you are very fit and have great starting overall breast shape. There is no sagging nor structural issues such as breast constriction, tuberosity, etc. The issue is 'volume' meaning how big to go. As a general rule, it takes about 200 cc per cup size increase. It appears that you are closer to a small B. So, a 300 cc implant would be expected to give you a one and a half cup increase to a full C/small D cup. In your consultation, as with other board-certified plastic surgeons, we would measure your breasts and torso. We would then give you appropriately sized implants to try on at different volumes. In this way, you would have a very good understanding of what to expect. It would allow you to 'test drive' the implants. I believe that you will be very happy with whatever size (or not) that decide upon. Respectfully, Jules A Feledy, Jr, MD American Board of Plastic Surgery, American Society of Plastic Surgery
