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: Shape? Great question, there was recent study that showed if you put a round in one and an anatomical in another most surgeons can not tell the difference. I think if you have zero breast tissue than anatomical may be of value to give you shape but if you have some tissue than all the implants do is give you volume and I would suggest round as they have less issues than anatomic.GOOD LUCK

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.
