I tried sientra silicone sizer 695cc tex. Mod pro. I want larger size 800cc or up. Since it does Not come larger My PS who also prefers sientra recommended Mentor 800cc. I'am 5'6 170 38b-28-40 band 17 very Curvy small waist big Hips/butt i prefer Sientra look feel and cohesiveness reputation. I'm trying to decide go bigger with Mentor or go w/ a size that is just barely big (for me) but a superior implant. which is better Overall? Please I don't want to hear they are both comparable.

Answer: Breast augmentation size Unfortunately I cannot help with this answer. This is a decision that only you and your Plastic Surgeon can make together. I would just mention that 800 cc implants weigh 1 3/4 pound each so that's a total addition weight of 3 1/2 pound of weight to your chest wall. If you run or jog or exercise are willing to accept this weigh and the associated problems that come with it. You will have to sign a separate consent form stating you understand the increased risk and complications associated with this size implant. Good LuckStephen M.

Answer: Breast Augmentation Sizing This is a question you need to decide with your surgeon. Both brands of implants are excellent, so if you would be happier with the larger size, then maybe you should consider the 800 cc implant. If you want the cohesiveness of Sientra, then you'll need to accept the smaller size. Only you and your surgeon can make that decision together.If you wanted to try the Rice Test (click on link below), which I use for sizing my patients, you could use about 25 ounces to approximate the look of the 800 cc implant and about 22 ounces to estimate the 695 cc implant. This is only an estimate for volume, not for shape. I hope you're happy with your final choice!
