Implant Size for Flat Chest to Full B or Small C

Breast implant size for breast augmentation surgery is a very individual decision with many variables. These variables should be discussed with your board certified plastic surgeon and include implant type, implant shape, incision placement and implant size. These can all be addressed in your consultation. I would say that silicone would be a good choice considering you have limited breast tissue with an implant placed under the muscle for a natural look. You are narrow chested, so a high profile implant may be appropriate and incision type would be based on breast shape and areola size. Size ultimately depends on your size and your pre-existing breast and chest size. You can think of 150 to 200 cc's increasing you one cup size as a very rough estimate.

I hope this helps.

Hi there-

I wish I had a few bucks for every time someone has asked a question like yours...

The thing is- you're going about it all wrong. It's a mistake to choose an implant first (on your own), and then find a surgeon willing to put it in you.

If your goal is to be safe and happy (and I assume it is), you should be spending your time and energy finding a well-trained, experienced, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon that you like and feel you can trust with your safety and happiness, communicating your goals to him, and with his assistance deciding on the details of the surgery most likely to make you happy.

Please read more about the best way to go about this here:

Without seeing you, and measuring you myself, it is hard to say which style will get you to your goal cup size. The moderate plus and high profile silicone gel implants look very attractive and natural in the right size. I would also suggest submuscular placement. I would go by what your plastic surgeon recommends, you won't make a bad choice. Both will give you a great result.

This is difficult to estimate based on a description and is not subject to a simple formula. You should try sizers as well as a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeons. Given you concerns with a fake look. moderate plus may be a better choice but it may not achieve the volume you seek

There is no way to guarantee a particular bra size. Bra sizing varies greatly between bra manufacturers and a C in one bra will be a D in another. What matters more than the assigned bra size is the way the implant looks on you. The best option for your body and aesthetic goals can be determined in a thorough implant sizing session.Implant sizing depends on several factors. One of the most important factors is your breast width. Generally, your surgeon will measure your breast width, and then provide you with a range of implant sizes appropriate for your native breast size. There are more nuances to it than just what I've described, but this approach works for most women.I usually have my patients bring in a large bra and a tight t-shirt to do sizing. I'll then choose 3-4 implants that I feel are appropriate, and have my patients place them in the bra under the tight t-shirt. My patients can then look in the mirror and get a good sense of what they will look like with the provided implant sizes. My patients like this approach and get a great idea of how they will look.By using this technique, your surgeon can outline a range of appropriate implant sizes that will be aesthetically pleasing, and you make the final decision.I hope this helps. Good luck!Sincerely,
