I'm getting a full lift and BA (and TT). I would say currently I'm a small B. I would like to be a full C and just want nice shaped breasts that fit well on my frame. Proportionate and not too big. My chest measurements are 14cm on each side and the dr recomends 400cc moderate profile silicone mentor. To me, that sounds so big. I'm 5'4" and 140lbs.
Answer: Breast Implant Size If your breast base width is 14 cm on each side then a 400 cc moderate plus profile Mentor is not too large for your chest. You should try on the implant sizers inside an unpadded sports bra to get an idea of how the implants will make you look. Let your surgeon know about your concerns so you can mutually agree upon the implant size and shape. Best of luck!

Answer: Breast size Hello dear, thanks for your post and provided picture as well. Choosing your new breast size is an important decision and can be stressful, but many women find it to be the most exciting part of preparing for breast augmentation.There are a number of factors to consider when deciding on an implant size.I am not a big believer in having my patients bring in photos because this does allow you to factor in the volume of the natural breast tissue in addition to the implant. One implant can give completely different results in two different women.The dimensional approach makes the most sense to me - choosing implants based upon your natural breast width as well as the tightness of your tissues. Once measurements are taken, then you can size with the actual implants to get an idea of what to expect.It is well known that what you see is larger than you will be after you have healed from your surgery but giving a percentage is difficult. The only true promise I can make my patients is that they will not be larger than what they see while sizing. You will choose your new size with the help and guidance of your plastic surgeon. Think carefully about your goals and experiment with different sizes to find the one that's right for you.Good luck :)
