I'm worried that if I get breast implants they will give me a top heavy look (my friend calls it the stripper look!), so, I'm trying to figure out what size breast implants should I get. Is there a rule of thumb or tips for choosing breast augmentation sizes? What are my options in breast implant size?

Answer: Choosing the right breast implant Hello there and thank you for this great question. The breast implant should fit the size of your body frame. Implants that are too big, wide, too projected and heavy for a specific body type, may not last long and the implants will likely fall to the sides or droop. It's very important for a plastic surgeon to choose an implant that has a width similar to the patient's base width, so that they get a long-lasting, natural and proportionate breast augmentation.

Answer: There are several different implant options There are a lot of factors to consider when it comes to desired implant sizes. An examination and fitting would have to been done to find out what best fits you.

Answer: Choosing the "correct" implant size There are a number a factors that your plastic surgeon takes into consideration when recommending an implant. These include such things as your breast width (most important), the thickness of your breast tissue, skin quality and elasticity. Based on these factors, there is a recommended range of implant widths and profiles (from flatter to more round). Personally, I find 3D imaging helps with communication about whether the recommended implant meets with my patient's goals. Choosing too large of an implant for a patients dimensions or skin quality can result in a high risk for problems.
