I am having my breast augmentation done in a month. I think the breasts in this photo are beautiful and are my goal size. I know a lot of different aspects go into but what size are these breasts? How many cc’s? I am starting at a 34 A if that. Thank you
Answer: Choosing the right size and profile breast implants for you After I measure and discuss goals with my patients, we then look at pictures of women (my patients) with similar measurements with different size and style breast implants, and they choose what looks right for them. They also get to see what they would look like when the breasts have fully dropped and fluffed and in clothes. You get to see actual results and the surgeon's experience and not a virtual idea of what can be achieved. Women tell me that this process is very helpful in determining what size and style breast implant is right for them. Dr. Ted Eisenberg, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and Author.

Answer: Size You need to be measured and examined to see if your goal size is even an option for you or too large. This will be determined during the consultation.

Answer: Implant selection There is no accurate way to know exactly the size or type of implant a patient has from a photo. During an evaluation your surgeon will measure the base width of your breasts. This information will be combined with your goals for surgery to determine implant options. In addition to volume you will discuss shape, type, and projection. I've included a video on this process that I hope you find helpful.

Answer: Implant size Dear mconne92, breast implant type and sizing selection is a complicated process and requires a detailed consultation that includes a discussion of your goals, a detailed examination, and a lengthy discussion. But the decision will always start and end with the patient. When it comes to sizing, we have all of our patients find 3 photos of their desired breast size. We ask for naked breast photos because clothing can obscure the true size (push up bras). Next, we consult with patients and go over the photos and take detailed breast measurements during a physical exam. Next, we using a sizing algorithm to determine a range of implants that will work based on the exam and the measurements.Lastly, during the operation, we use silicone sizers in the operating room to see how the size actually looks in the breast. We sit the patient up in the operating room, while asleep of course, and compare the sizer result with their desired look photos. If it is too small, we start the process over with a slightly larger implant. We don't stop until we get the perfect match.Of all of my breast augmentation patients, every one of them has been happy with their size due to this detailed and meticulous process. You don't want to invest time and money into a result that is either too big or too small.You should discuss your concerns with a board-certified plastic surgeon and make sure that your surgeon understands your goals.

Answer: Really hard to tell by a picture Wish pics... well I think there is no surgeon in the world that could guarantee you will have a breast just like any photo (because each body is different) But I will tell you what has to be done in your breast augmentation evaluation so you could have the best of it. As for the 1st step in your breast augmentation with a plastic surgeon: I have to know how much volume you have in your breast, 2 details here, I always ask for your actual cup size and 2nd I measure your breast with breast sizers to know the exact volume. This is because most women don't wear their bra as "the fabric wants" because they are comfortable with a bigger/smaller size and each cup size has a volume. ExampleCup A 150 mlB 300C 450D 600 So, this is the starting point to know what cup size you are and after knowing this (i.e., you are a cup A so you have 150 ml, or less, and if you want to be a B cup, we need at least 150 ml to get you there... just doing the math) after that we have to know if you have enough skin so the implant won't be palpable, so we do a pinch test and if you get more than 2 cm (we measure with a special tool) of tissue that can protect the implant by covering it I recomend you to have a breast augmentation above your pectoralis muscle, if you get less than 2cm of tissue I really recommend you to have a submuscular breast augmentation (or a dual plane breast augmentation for a natural look) so the implant gets covered by a layer of muscle. After these points we need to know what cup size you want, or if you don't have a clear idea we bring a special Bra-sizer with special implants so you can look in the mirror an approx. of the result. these special implants range from 120 ml to 450 ml, so you have plenty of choices. at the end of the consultation, you can also ask your doctor for pictures B & A of patients with your body type so you could see a result with the volume they chose. A good plastic surgeon will take you through this step so you could make the final and informed decision, remember it is you the one that determines the volume, not other person. I hope this information helps you.
