When I first met with my doctor he stated that due to my body size and what not 325cc silicone implants would be best for me. I REALLY REALLY want bigger. I really want at least 340cc... it's been a few weeks now, and Thursday is my last meeting before my surgery and im praying he will agree to meet me half way with 340. I'm scared I'm gonna wake up from surgery and their gonna say they could only fit 300cc or something. I would be so depressed. ps I'm 5'3, 22 years old no kids, and 110 pounds.

Answer: Is it possible for me to get 340cc? Thank you for the question and pictures. Based on your photographs, I think that you are starting at a good place and should have a very nice outcome with breast augmentation surgery. Unfortunately, online consultants will not be able to provide you with specific enough advice (regarding specific breast implant size/profile) to be truly helpful. Generally speaking, the best online advice I can give to ladies who are considering breast augmentation surgery (regarding breast implant type/size/profile selection) is: 1. Concentrate on choosing your plastic surgeon carefully. Concentrate on appropriate training, certification, and the ability of the plastic surgeon to achieve the results you are looking for. Ask to see lots of examples of his/her work. 2. Have a full discussion and communication regarding your desired goals with your plastic surgeon. This communication will be critical in determining breast implant size/type/profile will most likely help achieve your goals. In my practice, the use of photographs of “goal” pictures (and breasts that are too big or too small) is very helpful. In bra sizers can be useful communication tools also. I have found that the use of words such as “natural” or "C or D cup" etc means different things to different people and therefore prove unhelpful. Also, as you know, cup size varies depending on who makes the bra; therefore, discussing desired cup size may also be inaccurate. The use of computer imaging may be very helpful during the communication process. 3. Once you feel you have communicated your goals clearly, allow your plastic surgeon to use his/her years of experience/judgment to choose the breast implant size/profile that will best meet your goals. Again, in my practice, this decision is usually made during surgery ( after the use of temporary intraoperative sizers). I hope this, and the attached link (dedicated to breast augmentation surgery concerns), helps. Best wishes for an outcome that you will be very pleased with.

Answer: Is it possible for me to get 340cc? I believe it is possible, however, I would need to know your chest measurements to be sure. I have placed implants much larger than 340cc in patients who appear as small as you. The difference in a 325 cc and 340 cc is very little and would be hardly noticeable. You may need Ultra-High Profile implants to fit your body size if you want to go larger than the recommended 325cc.Ask your PS to show you the various implant charts with the dimensions for the various sizes to see if this would work. It's important that you express to your PS your expectations. I'm sure he/she wants you to be happy also. No one wants an unhappy patient.Good luck with your procedure.
