I had a double mastectomy in april. I have tissue expanders in. Im 5'2 115 pounds . I have 200 cc in now. I want to be a c cup. I think a small c cup.
Answer: C Cup Bra cup sizes are not standardized , so its very difficult to determine the exact cup size, but on an average a cup size is between 150 -200 cc, so a C cup could range between 450- 600 cc. The height and weight of a patient also make a big difference.

Answer: Breast implant volume and cup size It is very difficult to predict cup size because cup sizes are not standardized. However, for someone of your height and frame size, implants in the 450-550 mL range often achieve a C/D cup size.

Answer: Implant size Dear Auntb82, 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: I always say this in consultation: every cup has a volume Hello, as every brand has different cup size, I use mainly this rule. Each cup size has a volume. ExampleCup A 150 mlB 300C 450D 600 So, if you want a Cup C I think you should talk to your Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon and Breast Reconstructor to think about a 450-cc implant (not expansion in my cases I over expand 30% of the volume so I can manage the skin envelope better but that's just me). And here is a Tip: once you know you have expanded 450 cc (your desired cup size) or when you feel comfortable with the volume you have, go on an try a brassiere of the brand you like the most. This will give you an idea if you want more or less volume when placing your implant and a head start in your shopping.
