Would you recommended 250 or 275cc based on my measurements and crisalex image? I am 5'7, 110lb 10.5 bwd but also trying to gain weight. I am sick of being flat chested, but also do not want to look unnatural for my shape. I do not have hips or any curve really. The surgeon said I can only fit high profile implants and max 275cc because of chest width. I know there is not much difference in 25cc I don't know why the decision is so hard!

Answer: 275cc Thanks for your question! Personally, I think the 275cc looks better. It will give you a little bit more cleavage and upper pole fullness. Good luck!

Answer: 250 or 275cc The decision between the two sizes is only hard because you are making it hard. A 25cc change in volume is so slight that it would be barely visible. Looking at your Crisalix images, I suspect that most people wouldn't know the difference, unless they were held side by side and carefully studied. I expect that both sizes would look fine on you and whether one looks better than the other is largely personal opinion and preference. If you're asking for my vote, i would favor the 250cc because of your slender frame.

Answer: Implant size and type Dear Madeleinelily, 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.
