I am 5'7", 180 lbs & athletic build. Will I look natural with 550cc/600cc? (photos)

Based on your photographs you will need projection, surface area, and volume to correct the breast shape.  It will require a large implant.  Your goal pictures will be difficult to achieve because those patients did not have sagging before surgery.  If you are looking at the size of the goal pictures, they are large.  So the recommendations are more realistic, now knowing this information.  However, the best way for you to ease your fears about going large is to try on sizers.  If the surgeon you love doesn't offer this option, then you have to figure a way to make sizers of your own.  Instead of rice, try freeze dried mashed potato (uncooked), measured in cc using your measuring cup, and placed in knee high panty hose.  Make sets of sizers and put them in your bras, or bathing suits.  Try on 600 cc.  The sizers will look approximately 40 cc larger than the implants, so if 600 cc is slightly large but doesn't really bother you, it will probably be good.  Looking at pictures of other patients with 600 cc is the worst way to see how it is going to look on you.  Don't let that scare you.  Smaller implants are not going to correct your shape.

The photos provided are not full views - it is unclear if there is a difference in size or nipple position, or to assess the position of your nipple on your breasts.  When looking at photos of other people who had BA I would recommend comparing pictures of people who had a similar appearance as you before the surgery.  This will give a better idea if you might achieve he same result after surgery.

You should seek out a board certified plastic surgeon that offers 3D imaging and simulation, in office gel sizers, custom rize sizers and bio-dimensional analysis. Our office uses all of these techniques on all of our patients to achieve a 99.8% success rate with size satisfaction.

Depends on what you call natural. Most "athletically" built women don't have don't have such large breasts. 

Hello, you can ask ten people and get ten different opinions about what is natural to them. In general, based on your Ht and wt, a 550/600 implant is not unheard of. You final size also depends on how much breast tissue you have right now. I would recommend trying sizers in the office to help you visualize how your are going to look. Ask your PS if he as a breast sizing system with shaped sizers that can conform to your breast...these can be helpful when trying to decide on your desirable size. In addition to this, there are 3-d computer imaging systems that can also give you a good idea of what you may look like. Good Luck.
