I'm currently a low small B cup. I wanna be a full C nothing bigger than a C. My dr told me 400cc Would do it for me? But I'm scared it will be too big for me. My friend got her BA with the same dr miami and she's now going for a breast reduction because they were too big. She got 500cc and she asked for a full C and it gave her a DD. So I'm nervous this will happen to me. I'm 5'7 and 150lbs I was even thinking of doing a 350cc I want perky filled boobs not in your face boobs.
Answer: Implant Size It is very difficult without assessing you in person to know if the implant size you mentioned will be a good size for you. Keep in mind that implant size selection not only depends on your personal preference, but it also depends on your unique measurements. There are various types of implants that can help you attain the look you are going for. A thorough consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon will allow you to communicate what your desired result is and will inform you as to what is possible to achieve your goals. We have a device called the Vectra 3D imaging system that shows you what you will look like with any implant. Our patients are very happy with the choice of implant they make when using this system. To learn more about breast augmentation, you can read “A Comprehensive Guide to Breast Augmentation."

Answer: BA If you want a perky look, then 400 cc is not the implant for you. In addition you appear to have a tight skin envelope and may be better served by a smaller implant. Finally, you do appear to have asymmetry of your breasts and this can become more noticeable after an augmentation so it should be addressed.

Answer: Breast augmentation, 400cc Hello and thank you for your question. You are a great candidate for a breast augmentation. 400cc may be large for your goals. The size, profile, and shape of the implant is based on your desired breast size/shape, your chest wall measurements, and soft tissue quality. This decision should be based on a detailed discussion with equal input from both you and your surgeon. Best wishes and good luck. Richard G. Reish, M.D. Harvard-trained plastic surgeon

Answer: 400 too gib Hi pjackie310,Thanks for posting. Your concerns seem valid as some girls will end up a D with 400cc. You should probably get a second opinion from a BCPS with expertise in breast surgery. Nothing replaces in person consultation/examination. Bigger is not always better! Please see attached web reference. Good luck :)

Answer: Excellent question. The most common reason for disappointment after breast augmentation relates to size-too big or not big enough. Using bra cup sizes as your metric is notoriously inaccurate and rather than fixate on the notion that you don't want to be any "bigger than a C", it is far more accurate to view photos and before and afters and share those as your communication tool with your plastic surgeon. Selecting an implant is far more complicated that "300 cc's versus 400 cc's" and this is where the expertise, judgment and aesthetics of your plastic surgeon come in to play. While it can be useful to discuss sizes with friends, it can also be very misleading since it is very likely that your friend's breasts are very different from yours, not to mention her height, weight, and body type. Your best advice to consult with an experienced board eligible or certified plastic surgeon whose aesthetics aligns with that of your own based on their before and after gallery. The only way to unring the bell of having been over augmented is to have revision surgery, which you would obviously like to avoid. That means getting it right the first time. If you are unsure after your first consultation, be open to the idea of a second, or even a third consultation, until it feels right and your confidence level is where it should be. Best of luck to you.
