Hi guys, get that this is the question everyone wants an indication on and probably hard to answer but I have just got natrelle silicone 295cc high profile overs. Does anyone know what cup size I will end up being? My stats are: Height: 5ft 5 Weight: 9 1/2 stone Bra size before op: 34 A Sports bra size after surgery and with swelling: 36 D Any indication of what my final cup size will be would be amazing. I am hoping for a full C. Many Thanks
Answer: Just had 295cc overs - do you know what cup size I will be? I agree with my colleagues that bra sizes vary substantially between various manufacturers, and one makers' "C cup" may be another's "D cup", etc. Don't get caught up in the "letter designations" for bra size. A 295 cc implant is still a relatively conservative "size" implant given the spectrum or range of available sizes. Every one has swelling after the procedure which can "overestimate" the size of the result to variable degrees early on. Someone once studies cup size and found it equated to about 200 cc per cup size. So you should experience a 1 1/2 to 2 cup size increase from where you started. It sounds like you have a great chance of being where you want to be from your description. Also remember high profile implants have more "projection" (which is the dimension "outward" or forward from the side of the body). It can take breast implants 8-12 weeks sometimes to fully settle into position. These dynamics also affect the "fitting" of various sports bras and brassieres. After they have totally settled is the best time to go bra and swim suit shopping. Good luck! - Dr. Boynton

Answer: Just had 295cc overs - do you know what cup size I will be? It's a great question, but it's really hard to predict your final cup size. A rough estimate would be that every 150-200cc of implant volume would increase your bra size by about 1 cup. During your consultation you'll be able to try on implants in a bra. It's important to remember that cup sizes vary significantly between different bra manufacturers, so focus on reaching your goal look and then you'll find out your cup size during a bra fitting. When considering breast augmentation make sure you find a board certified plastic surgeon who will take the time to answer all of your questions and explain all of your options, so that you can decide if breast augmentation is right for you.

Answer: Predict cup size Thanks for your question. In my practice I never guarantee a breast cup size. One reason is that a Victoria Secret C is not the same as a Target C. However, given the information above, a full C is a good guess as to where you will end up. Only time will tell. Best of luck to you

Answer: No There is really no way to accurately depict cup size. Particularly since they vary so much between bra manufacturers. Assuming that you had good communication with your surgeon, you should reach your final desired look, but it may take 3-6 months. Best, Dr. Nazarian

Answer: Depends Hello, cup sizes vary between bra manufacturers...no one will be able to give you a universally correct answer as the answer will change depending on what bras you wear. It typically takes a few weeks for swelling to decrease and implants to settle. After that time, you will be able to be sized. Good Luck.
