I'm looking to be a full C cup and was wondering if 325-350CC will give me that size? I'm 5'4, and weigh 129lbs. with a 34-36A cup. My concern is that I don't want to spend lots of $ and be dissapointed that they are not big enough, yet at the same time, I don't want them to be too big. I have 4 kids so the doctor said that may be to my benefit b/c of the elasticity.
Answer: Implants and Cup Size Do NOT Correspond With Each Other
Based on your height and starting breast size, a 325cc-350cc implant should put you in the C range, but there is no real way to know until afterwards. That same size implant on you may be a DD on some women and a B on another. The reason is that eveyone is different with regards to their breast shape, chest shape, height, weight, shoulder width, etc. It is always hard to know exactly what size to go, but I always ask my patients to err on the larger side, since 90% of women all wish they ahd gone a little larger by the three month mark. I hope this helps.

CONTACT NOW Answer: Will 325-350CC Will Give Me a Full C Cup? It's a great question, but it's really hard to predict your final cup size. A rough estimate would be that every 150-200cc of implant volume would increase your bra size by about 1 cup. During your consultation you'll be able to try on implants in a bra. It's important to remember that cup sizes vary significantly between different bra manufacturers, so focus on reaching your goal look and then you'll find out your cup size during a bra fitting. When considering breast augmentation make sure you find a board certified plastic surgeon who will take the time to answer all of your questions and explain all of your options, so that you can decide if breast augmentation is right for you.

Answer: Will 325-350cc give me a full 'C' cup? 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. 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 me that this helps! Best wishes for a wonderful result!

Answer: Will 325-350CC Will Give Me a Full C Cup?
It is very easy to be confused by this measuring system. Cup sizes are only used as estimates for clothing. Although the measuring technique for determining cup size is precise, the results of these measurements are not. Let me give you an example; weight is a very accurate measurement. However two patients that weigh 120 lbs are not likely to look alike. The same is true with two patients that have C cup breasts. This is why physicians tend to use volume (cubic centimeters or cc) as a more accurate measurement. Note: If you are trying to figure out what breast implant size you want to obtain, you can try the szing tool available through b4bra.com or read the articles about measuring there.
Size is a complex decision that is not only based upon your height, weight and current cup/bra size but ALSO on also on your breast diameter, waist, shoulder, and skin envelope measurements. These can only be assessed in person during a consultation. A good place to start is using my "Find your perfect size" tool listed in the left hand column of my bodysculptor.com home page. Another good place to look is the searchable database section of the physicians' photos on implantinfo.com. Best of luck.

Answer: That should do it
The 325-350cc implant size that you have in mind should indeed give you a full C cup breast. In practice I sit my patients up during their operation with a breast sizer in place to determine the size implant needed to achieve their goal. At your height and weight that size should be perfect. Be careful though, after that many pregnancies you may need a breast lift as well. Good luck!
