Currently i am 34AA /A. Ideally i would like a suttle small increase breast size. I am 11.5cm BWD, 5cm under breast fold tissue, 172cm height, 62kg weight. I have been recommended motiva full 315cc or 335cc under the muscle. I like the look of the 295cc and 315cc sample sizes but i have been advised to go the next size up due to the appearance of the implant looking slightly smaller once placed under the muscle. Is this true? If i like the look of 315cc, i should go 335cc?

Answer: Implant sizing Hi. Both implants would suit you well. There is VERY LITTLE difference in the final result between the two. 20cc is very negligible. You may not even distinguish the difference if you had 315 in one breast and 335 in the other. It is true that the breasts will be a little smaller once placed behind the muscle.

Answer: Implant Type and Sizing Selection Hi Newjean, Breast implant type and sizing selection is a complicated process and requires a detailed consultation that includes a discussion of your goals, a detailed examination, and a lengthy discussion. But the decision will always start and end with the patient. When it comes to sizing, we have all of our patients find 3 photos of their desired breast size. We ask for naked breast photos because clothing can obscure the true size (push up bras). Next, we consult with patients and go over the photos and take detailed breast measurements during a physical exam. Next, we using a sizing algorithm to determine a range of implants that will work based on the exam and the measurements. Lastly, during the operation, we use silicone sizers in the operating room to see how the size actually looks in the breast. We sit the patient up in the operating room, while asleep of course, and compare the sizer result with their desired look photos. If it is too small, we start the process over with a slightly larger implant. We don't stop until we get the perfect match. Of all of my breast augmentation patients, every one of them has been happy with their size due to this detailed and meticulous process. You don't want to invest time and money into a result that is either too big or too small. You should discuss your concerns with a board-certified plastic surgeon and make sure that your surgeon understands your goals.
