Although their is a slight different is weight versus volume, the end result is so similar that it is negligible. Hope this helps -- Dr. Nazarian
Hello, there is a subtle difference in the size of implants measured by weight versus volume, but the result would be similar with either a 375g or 375cc implant with the same profile.
the CC and grams are very similar for implants at 1cc of saline or silicone weighs about 1 gram... so it's a good estimate.
Hi. For most practical purposes they are the same. There is a slight difference in weight between 1cc of silicone and 1cc of saline.
They can be considered similar since the difference is very small. The actual weight of 1cc of silicon depends on the density of the gel, but it is slightly above 1g. Therefore, you can consider implants measured in grams marginally smaller than implants measured in cc. A perfect conversion is impossible without knowing the characteristics of the specific gel.

I appreciate your question. The size of implant best for you is dictated by your chest wall measurements. Once we determine that we can choose the profile based on what you want or need to achieve. If you are seeking a natural look, then the diameter of the implant should be equal to or,...
Hi dear, thank you for your question. Seromas will gradually be re-absorbed by the body. However, this can take many days or even weeks. Sometimes a ‘knot’ of calcified tissue remains after the seroma has dissipated. This calcification may show up on follow-up imaging studies, but is of no hea...
