I'm 21 years old and will be getting a BA in June. I'm deciding implant size in the range of 300-375 cc. Because I'm young and will need several replacements throughout my life, I want to know if replacements need to be incrementally bigger or if you can keep the same size for decades. I know that skin will stretch (though not a bunch because I'm not going huge), but if I'll need to keeping going bigger to keep full breasts, then I want to start smaller.

Answer: Breast Augmentation and Sizing The short answer is no you dont have to. As far as needing several replacements, I am not sold on that either. The silicone implants that are made today have a rupture rate of 0.8%. Therefore, they are very well made. The key is to have a successful first surgery and to pick a size that does not stress your tissues excessively. The is the key to having a long time frame before needing additional surgery down the line. Also, taking care of your breast with the use of a sports bra/support bra as much as possible will aid in giving you a long term result.Good luck on your surgery.Hope that helps.

Answer: Breast implants Of course everyone is different but what you say is correct at least in part. In many cases the skin of the breast stretched and you lose upper fullness. For some women they will go bigger to get more upper fullness and then the cycle happens over and over again. Try not to get drawn into that trap. Mid 300 cc implants are pretty conservative so consider going a little larger.
