Breast implants: Is 650 CC high profile, under the muscle too large and ridiculous? (photos)

Question

Hi there! I've had 2 surgery consultations for breast augmentation, and both surgeons have suggested very large implants. I am transgender, so I have a somewhat wider frame than most girls, I'm 6'2, 150lbs, currently a 34 A cup. My surgeon wants to do 650cc, high profile, under the muscle. The digital approximation looks good to me (see photos), but other girls with slightly wider frames have told me that they did 450ccs and even that is pretty large.

Larger implants tend to be more reasonable in taller patients, wider patients, and transgender patients.Kenneth Hughes, MDLos Angeles, CA

Thank you for your question about breast implants.The answer to your question depends largely on your breast base width diameter.  It is not uncommon to use 600 cc + breast implants in women 6 feet and taller.To be sure, see two or more experienced, board-certified Plastic Surgeons in your area for a complete evaluation to make sure you are a good candidate and that it is safe for you to have surgery.I hope this helps.
