I'm getting my breast aug on Tuesday. My surgeon seems to think that 300cc's will get me to my desired result. I am a 34B now. I would like a full C or a smaller D. He is using mentor smooth round silicone implants above the muscle. I'm getting very anxious about not going bigger already.
Answer: Guessing the size of breast implants It is impossible for anybody on the site to tell you exactly what cup size she will be with the particular size of implant because it is necessary to examine the patient and measured the breasts in order to give a true answer to this. If you getting a lot of anxiety, you should be talking to your surgeon.

Answer: Will 300cc mentor silicone implants get me to a full C/small D? Hello! Thank you for your question. In general, implant size does not correlate with bra cup size. The cup size itself will vary from manufacturer to manufacturer as well as who is doing the actual measurements. Thus, cup size is never a reliable indicator for your breast size. I typically encourage my patients not to communicate her desires in cup size but more on the actual look and appearance. Good communication between you and your surgeon of your expectations is warranted - choosing your surgeon wisely is the first step. Discussion of your wishes and having an honest and open dialog of your procedure is mandatory (e.g, implant type, incision, placement, lift, etc). I have found that photographs brought by the patient is helpful to get a visualization of the appearance you wish for in terms of size, shape, fullness, etc. A preopertive sizing kit is helpful in my practice. In addition, your surgeon's pre and postoperative photographs should demonstrate a realistic goal for you. Once this has been accomplished, allow your surgeon to utilize his/her best medical judgment during the procedure to finesse the best possible result for you after preoperative biodimensional planning and fitting the right implant for your breast width. Hope that this helps! Best wishes for a wonderful result!

Answer: Will 300cc mentor silicone implants get me to a full C/small D? Thank you for the question. There is no accurate/reliable/predictable correlation between size/profile breast implant utilized and cup size achieved.
