Help deciding what implant to go for, Motiva Ergonomix, 255 to the 230cc demi profile?

Question

I am 5'7 thin 22 year old. After deciding with my PS motiva ergonomix, the size of 255cc 10.25cm, full profile, I have concerns they would look too big and full on my frame. What would the difference in aesthetics be when comparing the 255 to the 230cc demi profile 10.5cm?

Hi there.  Thank you for your question regarding your choice of breast implant size.  If you are concerned about being too full then always be conservative.  I use the Crisalix 3D imaging and breast implants to help my patients decide which sizes they are most comfortable with. You can also use the rice test at home - measure out 255cc and 230cc of rice and place into a pair of tights which then allows you to mould the rice inside your bra to give an accurate guide of what each volume will feel like.  Good luck with your decision.

It is very difficult to determine what the difference between these implants will look like on you as everyone's body is different and it will depend on your current breast tissue, chest width and body shape. I would recommend that you try both of these implants on to physcially see how they look, and bring along a range of clothing options to your sizing appointment so you can see how they look in not just a bra but in sports wear, dresses, tshirts and etc. Your surgeon may also offer 3D scanning which will allow you to see how your breasts may appear with the different sized implants.I would not recommend going ahead with your operation until you are 100% confirmed and happy about what implant you wish to have. Wishing you luck for your future surgery!

Agreed. If you are already questioning the size of the 255cc potentially being to large I would go with the 230cc. The difference in 25cc is minimal, 1 tablespoon is equivalent to amount 15cc if that helps put a perspective on things. Good luck with your future surgery!

It's better to go with the 230 if you are in doubt. You will have less concerns afterwards if you are already questioning it pre-operatively..
