Will 286 cc give me roughly a heavy c cup? I'm not overly concerned about the bra size, but would like to look on the full, but natural side of my frame. I'm small-framed, 5'4 and weigh 106 lb. A doctor recently recommended Natrelle, moderate plus, smooth round implants at 286 cc. How much more would make a visible difference? I really like the way the 286 sizers fit, but am wondering if the lost cc.s from going under the muscle will make them slightly smaller. Any advice would be wonderful!
Answer: Try on sizers A 286 cc implant is relatively small and will probably not give you a large C cup. You need to try on sizers to see exactly what size you think looks best on your body. You will lose some appearance of volume by going under the muscle. Based on your breast shape a 330 to 400 cc high profile implant filled to 360 would more likely give you the look you are trying to achieve. However, you need to make the decision based on the way the sizers look on you.

Answer: Choosing an implant Thank you for your question and pics. Cup sizes as they relate to implants are very inaccurate. Every bra from different manufacturers will fit your chest with a different cup size. I would stick with the weight and size you are comfortable with rather than thinking about cup sizes. It's difficult for us to give you a recommendation based on pictures but would discuss the possibility of a lift with your plastic surgeon. Best of luck.

Answer: Will 286 cc give me roughly a heavy C cup? Thank you for the question and pictures. Although potentially useful to some degree, online “consultations” cannot be as precise as necessary. There is no reliable correlation between the number of cc utilized and increase in breast cup size achieved. The commonly utilized formula of 200 to 250 mL equates to one breast cup size is not accurate in many cases, in my opinion. Ultimately, careful communication of your goals, careful measurements (dimensional planning), careful selection of appropriate breast implants and skillful execution of the procedure will be important steps in achieving your goals. In your case, based on your photographs, I would at least consider the option of some breast lifting (given the position, and some asymmetry? of your breasts on your chest wall).Generally speaking, the best online advice I can give to ladies who are considering breast augmentation surgery 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.

Answer: Proper Cup Size If you are to undertake the risks, down time and expense of cosmetic breast surgery, then you should perform your due diligence and have the correct procedure. Do NOT choose an excessively large implant to fill out the skin! Choose the implant that gives you the desired final volume - not more or less. A lift is the only way to deal with sagging skin and breast tissue.To determine the proper cup size, start with;Review many magazines to determine the look you want. Be reasonable and understand that if you are not 5 ft 11 in and 110 lbs before implants, thent implants are not going to make you look that way.Perform a rice test to establish a general volume for the implant. Take a pair of panty hose, fill each leg with rice to approximate the desired volume improvement, cut off the extra material and tie off the panty hose. Place the rice bags in your brassiere and compare to the photos you liked in part one. If the rice is too much or little, change the rice amount accordingly. Once you havve the ideal volume for your wants, pour the rice into a measuring cup and record the volume. For patients with asymmetrical breasts, the rice volume may vary for each breast.Find a board certified plastic surgeons who has great photos of breast lifts with implants (and minimal scarring) and present your photos and volume findings. He/she should measure the dimensions of your chest to determine the proper width and projection of implant to achieve your goals. If you would like more information on breast lifts and implants, please read my book " Cosmetic Breast Surgery - a complete guide from A to double D".
