Breast implant without HRT - What size would be suitable for me? (Photo)

Thanks for your question! You would need to be seen in person for an evaluation. It is not only dependent on your skin and tissues but also your measurements, how long you have been on HRT, etc. Please consult with a qualified plastic surgeon in your area. Good luck!

Dear Jenleone6,
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.

Since most of your breast tissue has been removed, you may not gain much from taking hormones in your breasts. I would suggest meeting with a board certified plastic surgeon who does transgender women, being examined and measured, and trying on the range of sizes that best fits your frame and tissue. You may have to go with smaller implants initially because of scar tissue, and then later go up in size. Do go to someone who does this kind of surgery since the procedure is different on the male chest than on female.
