What is the smallest implant size (in CC's) that is currently on the market?

Question

I had an explant 3 years ago and only had 215 cc's but they were far too big for my frame. I will consider getting reimplanted but only if there are considerably smaller implants available.

Some implant companies make implants from 110-120cc's. This would give you a cup less than what you had before.Good luck.

Dear nozero00,
breast implant type and sizing selection is a complicated process and requires a detailed consultation that includes a discussion of your goals, a detailed examination, and a lengthy discussion. But the decision will always start and end with the patient. When it comes to sizing, we have all of our patients find 3 photos of their desired breast size. We ask for naked breast photos because clothing can obscure the true size (push up bras). Next, we consult with patients and go over the photos and take detailed breast measurements during a physical exam. Next, we using a sizing algorithm to determine a range of implants that will work based on the exam and the measurements.Lastly, during the operation, we use silicone sizers in the operating room to see how the size actually looks in the breast. We sit the patient up in the operating room, while asleep of course, and compare the sizer result with their desired look photos. If it is too small, we start the process over with a slightly larger implant. We don't stop until we get the perfect match.Of all of my breast augmentation patients, every one of them has been happy with their size due to this detailed and meticulous process. You don't want to invest time and money into a result that is either too big or too small.You should discuss your concerns with a board-certified plastic surgeon and make sure that your surgeon understands your goals.

I believe that the smallest implant is probably 125 cc's, however, if you want an implant that small, I would suggest that you might be better off with fat transfer to the breasts if you are a good candidate.  It would be your own tissue and it would be permanent.  I recommend that you schedule a consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon who can examine you in person and review your options with you.

The smallest implant available is 125 cc's. There are two other perhaps even more important implant dimensions other volume and they are width and projection. Rather than suggest that you may need a 125 or 175 cc implant it is best to let an experienced board certified plastic surgeon evaluate you and advise you as to how to best achieve the optimal enhancement for you. I suggest the use of photos to show your plastic surgeon the look you find to be attractive and desirable. Best of luck to you.

The smallest size available is in the 150 cc range. It would help to have a photo of you to better assess how your current implants fit your frame. Sometimes getting a lower profile device can also help.
