Want to look proportional? Please help (Photo)

It is not possible to select the perfect implant for you based on your measurements alone. I encourage you to return to your surgeon's office to further discuss your surgery goals. Many surgeons have sample implants in the office that you can "try on" to give you an idea of how you may look after surgery. You can also look through before/after photos to point out characteristics you like or dislike. Keep in mind that you are unique, as are the patients in the photos, so a certain look cannot necessarily be duplicated. But it can give your surgeon important information on how to help you get the look you are wanting.

Thank you for your question. Pictures would be helpful.

​Without pictures, the answers that you are going to get will be speculative in nature.

Selecting the most appropriate breast implant size for breast augmentation is a personal decision that ultimately you have to make. An in-person consultation with implant sizing is best.
​
It depends on your height, weight and breast base width diameter.

To be sure what might be right for you, see two or more experienced, board-certified Plastic Surgeons 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.

Hello,
Thank you for the question.
Based on what you are describing, you appear to be a good candidate for breast augmentation, but it is difficult to tell definitively without an in-person examination and seeing the photos.
Implant size discussion and implant selection is one of the most important steps during your consultation with plastic surgeon. The decision-making process depends on your desires, as well as breast and soft tissue dimensions of your chest wall. I also utilize Vectra 3D planning to further help with implant selection.
The breast implants are typically placed under the muscle to provide more soft tissue coverage using a small incision at the breast fold.
I would seek an in-person evaluation by the Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon, in order to discuss your goals and concerns for the best cosmetic results.
I hope this helps.Best regards, Dr. Karanetz

Thank you for your question. There are multiple formulas used to decide the “perfect” implant size for each individual. Some surgeons have great results using these formulas. Personally, I do not believe that all patient’s desires fit into a standardized formula. Therefore there are multiple ways to make sure you and your surgeon are on the same page as to your goals. These include trying on implants, showing him ideal pictures from other patients, and other options. Good luck

Implant sizing can be confusing! Many plastic surgeons use different methods to select the ideal implant. This can be especially confusing if you've had more than one consultation.
Having an opportunity to discuss what "look" you want to achieve with your surgeon important as it will help your surgeon understand your aesthetic goals. There is generally a fairly narrow range of implants that will be a good fit for your chest dimensions. The 'look' can then be customized to achieve your goals by discussing the range of shapes and sizes that are a good fit for your body.
"Inspiration photos" can also help ensure that you and your surgeon have the same visual image in mind when you are discussing your ideal shape and volume.
