Hi, I am 4'11" tall and 90lbs. I have gone for two consults and have finally settled on a doctor. Given my tiny frame and my desire to want very natural results, my doctor told me the highest he will possibly go for me would be 190-200cc. My BWD is about 10 to 10.2. Should I look into a higher profile or moderate? I'm not sure what that means for my end result.. My current cup size is probably about a 32AA. Does this mean I will get to a 32B? How should I address this at my sizing consult?

Answer: Getting sized for breast implants is much more involved than it seems.
Thank you for your question and the photos. 200 mL does not sound like an unreasonable size choice. High profile round does not give a natural look but form-stable anatomical gel might.
Getting sized for breast implants is much more involved than it seems at first thought. It requires a full consultation with detailed questions to see exactly what your goals are, short and long term. It also requires precise measurements of your current breast dimensions, the dimensions of your chest wall, as well as preoperative photography, standard or 3D imaging.
To see what the best options are for you, see two or more board-certified plastic surgeons in your area for a full and complete evaluation to make sure you are a good candidate and that it is safe for you to have surgery. I hope this helps.

Answer: Breast augmentation and size Dear petit lilah, You indeed have a small frame and while natural is very vague, you would generally look great and natural with a B cup. This is a discussion you should have again with your surgeon. In my practice after an exam I would likely offer you the TUBA procedure where saline implants are placed under the muscle through a hidden navel incision. In your case 225-50cc moderate profile implants. Best of luck.
