.My PS is dual board certified. I told him I am unhappy with the way both breasts sit out to the sides, and I have zero upper pole fullnes, and zero cleavage. Tried on some sizers at 700-750, and he told me I can EASILY go to 800cc.. he recommends the silicone smooth moderate plus profiles for me. I recently lost 30 lbs, and thats the LAST look I'm going for. I'm 5'9 150lbs, and my measurement around my ribs under my breasts is 30 1/2".
Answer: 725-800cc reasonable? Dear Diana,You don't need larger implants, you need to have your pockets revised. Larger implants without the proper support will only make your current problem worse and more difficult to correct in the future. Please reconsider or get a second opinion. I hope this helps.Best wishes and kind regards,

Answer: Is this or that size reasonable in breast augmentation? There are 2 aspects of "reasonable" when it comes to choosing a breast implant size: What is possible from a surgical standpoint: The choice of implant size should be limited by the base diameter of the breasts where the implants would sit. With your photo and the measurement of only 30 1/2" I feel that these very large implants would be too wide to properly fit on the chest risking implant encroachment into the armpit and sides of the torso.What is considered reasonable from an aesthetic standpoint by the patient and the surgeon: So your opinion on this is the most important. As I have said before "Beauty is in the eyes of the owner" so if you sized yourself and like this size that is important. To me as a plastic surgeon and a man, the size you are considering would produce cartoonish huge breasts.In my opinion, this large size of implants is not reasonable in your case. Consider a second opinion.All my best.

Answer: Are 725-800 cc implants reasonable? Congratulations on your weight loss. 725-800cc implants are extremely large for a women of your hieght and weight. Bigger implants, potentially bigger problems. I believe that 450-550cc implants with a mastopexy will provide you with plenty of cleavage and upper pole fullness. Also, a high profile implant will help minimize the lateral fullness you wish to avoid. Please ask to see photos of the surgeon's results before committing to surgery. Experience matters.

Answer: Big Implants Those are big implants - just FYI. Your breasts look like they could accomodate that size but it really depends on what you are looking for. You have some asymmetry for sure and I agree that your breasts tend to fall to the side. Implants will not necessarily correct this (which is what you don't like) and could possibly make it worse. You should ask to see photos of results in women with breasts that look like yours. Good luck.

Answer: Is 725-800cc Implants reasonable? Thank you for your question and photographs. Depending on your desires and expected outcome, a combination of implant placement and breast lift would lead to very nice result. 700-800cc implants are very large and contrary to popular opinion will not lift your nipple or areola. I would continue to seek secondary and tertiary opinions on the appropriate implant size and style from other ASPS board certified plastic surgeons to ensure that their relative plans are similar, with similar implant sizing.
