I am a 33 year old 5’5 143 pounds breastfed two children but have always been saggy. I sent my surgeon some photos in order to secure a surgery date and I stated I wanted about 400 cc hp + lift. He responded that with a lift he could only do 240-280 but achieve the 400 look. I was a bit disappointed to hear that because 240 to 280 seems very small I’m not sure if it’s worth it. This doctor has great reviews great photos so I’m sure he’s correct but just want opinions, is 400 doable?

Because of your tissue and skin having been so stretched from weight gain, they will not hold heavy implants. That size can be used, but your tissue may not support it well and may sag. I recommend going with a smaller size so you will look good for many years.
Every surgeon will likely have slightly different practice with implant selection and it is best to consult with a surgeon in person who can measure various aspect of your anatomy and discuss your goals to arrive at the best implant for you. In my practice I try to keep implant base width within...
For one cup increase in size, you will need 150 to 200 cc's if you are a true C cup. During your consultation, you can try on a range of sizes and see what you actually like.
