I was choosing between 450cc and 475cc. 450 looked absolutely PERFECT but everyone says to go up so I chose 475 and that actually looks too big. (Although there isn’t much difference in cc’s) I’m wondering if it’s because the 450 was a sizer shaped like a tear drop and 475 was a round implant ? Everyone is saying I’ll be fine there is no difference but it seems a little contradicting when the sizes looked very different on me. I do NOT want to be too big.

Answer: Breast augmentation, 450-475cc Hello and thank you for your question. The best advice you can receive is from an in-person consultation. The size, profile, and shape of the implant is based on your desired breast size/shape, your chest wall measurements, and soft tissue quality. This decision should be based on a detailed discussion with equal input from both you and your surgeon. Make sure you specifically look at before and after pictures of real patients who have had this surgery performed by your surgeon and evaluate their results. The most important aspect is to find a surgeon you are comfortable with. I recommend that you seek consultation with a qualified board-certified plastic surgeon who can evaluate you in person. Best wishes and good luck. Richard G. Reish, M.D. FACS Harvard-trained plastic surgeon

Answer: Is there any real different between 450cc and 475cc implant? Thank you for sharing your question. There is a dramatic difference not in the sizes between the implants but rather the profile. Round implants provide a different look in clothing and in final result compared to an anatomic implant and I would revisit your surgeon to discuss your concerns and sizing requests based on your desired goal outcome. Hope this helps.
