I am 32yr, 5’6, 130lbs, 2 children, one breastfed. I recently had BA and chose 485cc in the left and 450cc in the right with a crescent lift on the right. I wish they were bigger with more upper pole fullness. Would 545cc/525cc Xtra high profile instead of high profile, give me what I am looking for? Chest Wall 15cm
Answer: Implant size Dear Practical813586, 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.

Answer: Breasts No, do not go larger. Naturally, your breasts sit somewhat low on your chest and the bases cannot be raised. If you go larger, you will for a while have the fullness and then you will sag. Stay where you are.
