What size could I achieve? Current 32AA (photo)

Thank you for your question. The optimal breast implant size depends greatly on each patient's personal preference. The same implant size in different patients will achieve different breast cup sizes and appearance in each patient. I recommend scheduling a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon and having a discussion about your expectations from the procedure. Implant size should only be selected after thorough physical examination, trying on implant sizers in a bra and performing 3-D imaging to give an idea of what the implant would look like on your frame. Best of luck with the process!

Hello and thank you for your question. You are a great candidate
for a breast augmentation.  The size for you will depend on what your goals are.  The size, profile, and shape of the
implant is based on your desired breast size/shape, your chest wall
measurements, and soft tissue quality.  This decision should
be based on a detailed discussion with equal input from both you
and your surgeon.  This entire surgery
can be performed with a small incision technique.  Make sure you
specifically look at before and after pictures of real patients who have
had this surgery performed by your surgeon and evaluate their results.   The most important aspect is to find a
surgeon you are comfortable with. I recommend that you seek consultation with a
qualified board-certified plastic surgeon who can evaluate you in person.
Best wishes and good luck.

Thank you for your question.
This is the most important consideration when planning your surgery. The fist thing to note is that, as you probably know, cup sizes are very variable between shops and bra styles / brands. For example, one could fit into a 'B' cup bra in M&S but in another store, one would fit a 'C' cup. Overall, it is more important to aim for a look rather than a specific cup size. The second aspect to note is that an augmentation must be based around your current anatomy and measurements for it to look appropriate and for  safe outcome. During your consultation, your surgeon should take measurements of your existing breast tissue and then help you decide the appropriate size based on your anatomy and on your aesthetic goals. One way to do this is using a sizing kit, which gives you an idea of how you might look after an augmentation using different implant sizes. The third piece of advice is that is always best to see someone who specialises in cosmetic breast surgery, as they will have a full understanding of your options. I hope this helps.

After I discuss my patient's goals and measure her, we then look at pictures of women with similar measurements with different size breast implants. My patients tell me that this process is very helpful in determining what size breast implant is right for them.Dr. Ted Eisenberg, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and Author

Hi lipgloss20 thank you for your question.  Determining breast implant size is based on anatomy of the patient.  Nipple to crease distance, width of the breast, skin laxity, the distance between your collar bone and your nipple etc. So with that being said looking at your picture I would suggest maybe a full B to keep that natural appearance. When you go for your consultation with your board certified plastic surgeon they can help with sizing once the get the measurements. We use 3D imaging in our office because I feel the patients get a real look at what they can potentially achieve. Best of luck on your venture.

It would be hard to determine which size you'll end up with based on photos. The final outcome would depend on various factors, such as your chest wall measurements, your skin elasticity, your desired results, and your surgeon's technique. It would be best to schedule an appointment with a board-certified plastic surgeon for an in-person examination. 

Thank you for your question. I personally think that the best thing about a breast augmentation consult is that the patient may try implants on. This way, you get a good idea of what size, shape and style will best fit your anatomy and your wishes. A visit to an experienced board-certified plastic surgeon's office should readily help you determine which size you prefer. Best of luck. 

Great question.  There are many ways to determine your ideal breast implant.  For overall size I would start out by trying to define what cup size range you are trying to accomplish. That is:-modest increase B-average increase of C-maximum increase of DThen, I would try on sizers at your plastic surgeons office.  The volume that you like can then  be measured in terms of breast width and breast height.  An implant can then be selected.All the best,Dr. Remus Repta
