Hi, I want to have a breast augmentation in a year or two. Could someone recommend how many ccs would be enough to have something in between a B and C cup. Or any insight about my breasts type would be appreciated:) thanks!

Answer: A to B cup - how many ccs? Hi. To appropriately discuss implant size and choice, you really need an in person evaluation by a plastic surgeon with good experience with breast augmentation. Opinions and preferences will vary somewhat from one surgeon to another surgeon. Personally I start with the base width of the patient as the starting point for the footprint of the future implant. Tissue characteristics, and desired postoperative size, and patient anatomy all factor in to the proper selection of implant volume as well as profile. I go over all of that all in detail with my patients at the time of their consultation. I would recommend consulting with a board-certified plastic surgeon with good experience in this area. He or she can thoroughly review the options with you so that you can make a good and well-informed mutual decision. Good luck and take care, Dr. Howell

Answer: Size and Profile Selection Good morning! Based on your photos I would guess 250-300cc, under the muscle, Mod Plus silicone gel implants. We would determine the exact size and profile when I measure your chest, we review photos together, and you have an opportunity to try on the implant sizers here in the office!

Answer: 3D breast implant sizing I recommend doing 3D imaging to see exactly what you would look like with different volume and profile implants. The technology will allow you to visualize your results before the procedure and is the most accurate way of estimating.
