Im getting my BA in about 2 weeks and Id like to know if 435 cc high profile gummy bear implants are going to look natural & full. I'm currently a 32A , I weigh 113 lbs and im 5'2 tall. Please see my photo below. I'm afraid 435 is too large however I have very little breast tissue. If 435 is in fact too large I'd like the best recommendation for my body type/ stature Thank you!

Answer: Please tell us what size you ultimately chose! I am late to answer this question, since you asked it one month prior to this reply, and told us your surgery was scheduled "in two weeks," which would have been just about 2 weeks ago.After all the answers and different opinions you received, I am curious as to what you and your surgeon chose, and just how you feel about things at this point in your recovery. I suspect many of my colleagues are equally interested, and there would be much speculation as to just who gave the "best" advice.I hope you are doing well, made the "right" choice, and would favor us with follow-up. Thank you and best wishes! Dr. Tholen

Answer: 435cc too big? I approach breast augmentation by measuring the base width of your breasts. I then look at the implant catalogs and offer a wide range of sizes that all have an appropriate width for your breast. Since the base width is relatively fixed (there is a little wiggle room), the way the size increases is by increasing the projection. In my opinion, as long as an implant with the appropriate width is selected, the decision on size is completely up to you. If you were my patient and there was a 435cc implant that was the appropriate width for your chest, I would offer it to you.
