As an atomical implant has the fuller part at the bottom will it give a bigger cup size than a round of the same cc size? As a round one is fuller at the top?

Answer: Size differences anatomic vs. round implants I would actually say that round implants look bigger than anatomic because round give better upper pole cleavage than anatomic - at least theoretically. Interestingly at our recent national plastic surgery meeting, the audience was asked to determine if 20 breast augment patients shown had anatomic or round implants - the audience was right half of the time (it's random!). There is no scientific data addressing your question, but I would say that similar volume implants - round vs. anatomic - will probably look very similar.

Answer: Do Anatomical Implants look Bigger? In general, most anatomic implants have their maximal point of fullness lower down on the implant than a round implant of the same size. This will tend to make the upper part of the breast less full with the anatomic implant than a round. I repeat that this is just a generalization. As others have stated, other factors like your chest and breast dimensions, the implant size chosen to fit your dimensions and the characteristics of your tissue have more to do with how you will look than the shape of the implant.
