Ok so I am scheduled for surgery on November 8th. I tried on the dozers and really liked the way the 535 looked on me. When I chose that implant size my PS stated that was a good choice because of the width of my breast. He states that if I would have chosen the 480 they would have been a little narrow. But I see women with similar stats like me that go with a smaller implant and get the same cup size I am trying to achieve. Currently I am 133lb ,5'4 and a 34a and trying to get a full C /small D

Answer: Breast implant size Hello and thank you for your question. You are a great candidate for a breast augmentation. The size 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. This entire surgery can be performed with a small incision technique. Best wishes and good luck. Richard G. Reish, M.D. Harvard-trained plastic surgeon

Answer: Implant size The best way to pick implant size is based on your breast and chest width and not the volume. As the implants get bigger, they get wider. When the width of the implant fits the width of your chest, it will look nice and fit your frame. If the implants are too small, you will have a gap between them and they may look too far apart. If they are too wide, they will make you look top heavy as they may be too wide and stick well out past the sides of your chest. There are ways to get a bigger or smaller look.This can be done by picking a different implant profile. The higher the profile, the narrower the base width of the implant. If someone has a very narrow chest and wants to be big, they should consider a higher profile implant. If someone has a broad chest and they do not want to be too big but want to avoid the gap and still have cleavage without projection, they should consider a lower profile implant such as a moderate. There are options in between these such as the moderate plus. I prefer the underarm approach so there is no scar on your breast. The new silicone is the only way to go as far a rippling as the new silicone ripples much less than saline, especially in the larger implants. I personally prefer the smooth round implants under the muscle placed through the under arm to give you the most natural look and feel. This also leaves you no scar o your breast. Dr Scott Ennis
