Thanks for your questionIt is not different, is only 20cc and you can't see the difference. Please make sure to contact a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon. Good luck dear :)
Patients will often struggle with volume choices. However, it is important to understand that smaller volume variations will have very little impact on final outcome. 20 cc is the equivalent of 4 teaspoons and less than half a shot glass. When distributed over the whole of an implant it amounts to a differential of millimeters.As always, discuss your concerns with a board certified plastic surgeon (ABPS).
Please note that a 20cc difference will not be noticeable. The difference is just a little over a tablespoon's worth of cc's. Please seek a board certified plastic surgeon for an in person consultation.Regards,
There is not much difference between the two sizes. After a full recovery, it would be very hard to differentiate between the two sizes. If what you want is perkier, larger breasts, then it would be better to choose the bigger size of the two just to be sure. Discuss this with your surgeon as he/she would know your condition best.
Great question! There is, for all practical purposes, no difference between 360 and 380 mL. The difference is 4 teaspoons. If you put one on one side and one on the other, you would be hard-pressed to tell the difference. Basically, if you like one you would like the other and if you don’t like one you won’t like the other. My recommendation for women who cannot decide between two sizes of implants is that they pick the largest one that they like. I hope this helps.
20cc is around a table spoon of fluid and so is not a lot of fluid and most patients would not notice this difference.
No, most patients who undergo breast augmentation surgery will not notice a significant (or any) difference with 20 cc different breast implants. Generally speaking, the best online advice I can give to ladies who are considering breast augmentation surgery ( regarding breast implant size/profile selection) is:1. Concentrate on choosing your plastic surgeon carefully. Concentrate on appropriate training, certification, and the ability of the plastic surgeon to achieve the results you are looking for. Ask to see lots of examples of his/her work.2. Have a full discussion and communication regarding your desired goals with your plastic surgeon. This communication will be critical in determining breast implant size/type/profile will most likely help achieve your goals. In my practice, the use of photographs of “goal” pictures (and breasts that are too big or too small) is very helpful. For example, I have found that the use of words such as “natural look” or "C or D cup” etc means different things to different people and therefore prove unhelpful.Also, as you know, cup size varies depending on him who makes the bra; therefore, discussing desired cup size may also be inaccurate. Again, the use of computer imaging has been very helpful during the communication process, in our practice.3. Once you feel you have communicated your goals clearly, allow your plastic surgeon to use his/her years of experience/judgment to choose the breast implant size/profile that will best meet your goals. Again, in my practice, this decision is usually made during surgery, after the use of temporary intraoperative sizers.I hope this helps. Best wishes for an outcome that you will be very pleased with.
This is a question I address multiple times per week, so thank you for asking it. The answer is basically no, there is not "much of a difference"... you're talking about a difference of 20cc... in the size range you are considering, that is approximately a 5% difference. 20cc is the volume of a tablespoon (15cc) and a teaspoon (5cc)... again, it is not much volume. Good luck!
20cc is a bit more than 1 tablespoon, so this is generally not a visible difference in size.Sincerely,Thomas C. Wiener, MDHoustonthis information is not a substitute for a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon
That is a great question. 20cc is not a huge difference. To give you some perspective 1 table spoon is approximately 15cc and a shot glass is approximately 30cc.
