Answer: 350cc high profile a suitable size to take from from B to DD Implant sizing is a difficult endeavor and leads to lots of anxieties. It is certainly an imperfect science, whether we are using sizers or computer imaging (we use both in my office). There are many factors that to consider including the height of the patient, with of the chest wall, position of the breast on the chest, distance from the nipple to the fold in addition to of course the goals of the patient. Also, there is no standard as to what a cup size is. That is why we rely on photographs that a patient may bring in of models breast that they are trying to come close to looking like. In general, I find a 350 high profile implant on average may increase a breast cup size by about 2 cups. The questioner does not state if any imaging or sizers were used in determining the size but if so, a good discussion with a surgeon is necessary. Ask many questions and bring in photos

Answer: Implant size There are many factors to consider when selecting an implant including your breast width (not the same as your bra size), surgical goals, and breast characteristics. Your surgeon uses this information to help select an implant that's right for you. Many surgeons have sample implants available that you can "try on" to get an idea of how you may look after surgery. I encourage you to return to your surgeon to confirm your implant choice. In general a 350cc high profile implant will add upper pole fullness, projection and multiple cup sizes.
