Is it possible for a 500cc saline implant be filled to 600cc or what cc would be okay to fill it to?

Each breast implant manufacturer has a recommended fill range for each of their implants. Saline implants are generally overfilled to avoid rippling and to maintain shape, but the degree of overfilling varies. For example, Mentor permits more overfilling for their implants than does Allergan. There are also different overfilling ranges for how, moderate, or high profile implants. Yes, you could fit 600cc of saline in a Mentor 500cc implant, but the implant would become extremely firm and rounded in shape. Implant selection depends not only on desired volume, but on the diameter of the implant and other factors.I would strongly recommend finding a plastic surgeon certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery who is willing to spend enough time with you to allow you to understand all of the issues and factors that are involved in choosing breast implants, and in deciding how much to overfill them.

Hello,It is possible, but the consequences are not good. First, going beyond a certain point of over filling will change the way the implant ripples. Initially, small amounts of over fill decrease rippling. As the implant gets more overfilled, rippling increases.  Second, a breast implant does not increase in height and width equally with over filling. In fact, as you overfill the implant, height increases and width decreases.  This means the implant is becoming more spherical, or ball shaped. Third, the implant will become firmer as it is overfilled, and it will feel very hard.  Finally, this firm device will cause significant tissue atrophy over time, thinning and stretching your tissues. This is not a recommended plan. Best of luck!
