My Breast Size is a 42 D. If I Have 628 Grams Removed from Each Breast What Cup Size Will This Make Me?

Unfortuntately, there is no good way to predict your future cup size.  There are multiple reasons for this.  First, cup sizes aren't necessarily standard and may vary from manufacturer to manufacturer and will also vary on how you are fitted for your bra.  For example, a 30D is essentially the same as a 32C.  Another thing to remember is that when a plastic surgeon says that he or she will remove 628 grams of breast tissue, it is only an estimate.  The goal of a breast reduction is to remove enough tissue to alleviate your symptoms, and leave enough behind so that you have an aesthetic and proportional breast.  Good luck!

First, it is very difficult to predict cup size from volume removal, second there are no photos to get an idea of what size the breast are now.  Everyone "wears" breasts a bit differently.  628 gms is a little more than a pound of tissue.

Tough to tell, cup size is very manufacturer dependent, like I tell my patients, there is no golden cup in New York that is the standard for cup size in the US. A reduction usually leaves you proportionate to your bodies frame. Good luck

Wow-that is the most specific gram weight reduction question I have ever seen on RealSelf! Cup size cannot be predicted as it is determined by a variety of factors and bra manufacturers are inconsistent.

It is difficult to predict bra cup size after a breast reduction.  The procedure is designed to remove an adequate amount of tissue to help relieve symptoms of neck, back pain, shoulder grooving, a rash under the breasts, etc.  The amount of tissue removed will result in a different cup size in different patients.  You should carefully discuss your goals with your surgeon prior to surgery to ensure that your expectations are realistic.
