Although I've seen two doctors I have my doubts. We have agreed on a 280cc(ml) anatomical implant with a medium profile with a fit between the muscle and the gland ( combination) due to the sport and minimal gland.. The first doctor offered me smaller implants and said it should be B in the result and the second doctor (280cc) did not tell me the resulting size (A,B,C). I'm wanting at least a size B but after seeing the posts on this I'm afraid it will be just small A. Now 0.
Answer: Implant size Dear Nikol0602, 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.

Answer: Size Since bras are not manufactured to specific size standards, you might wear a B or C. However, in most bras, you will be a B. Each 150 cc's of volume is close to one cup for many women. This size should look very nice on you.

Answer: Hello Hello, it must be a round, non-amatomic implant, it is necessary to increase volume throughout the breast, and an anatomical implant will not give volume in the upper pole, I think that the largest that can be placed in a first surgery would be a 330 that would give you a full A cup or small B cup

Answer: Cup size It's difficult to accurately predict cup size with a given implant as these sizes can vary by bra manufacturer. Many surgeons have sample implants that you can try on to help you get an idea of how you may look after surgery. A 280cc implant should likely get you around the B range.

Answer: Breast augmentation I'd suggest using 3D breast implant imaging so you can see what the implants will look like on your body. You can control for implant shape, size, and volume. Most board certified plastic surgeons are using smooth round implants.
