A cc is a cubic centimeter or a ml (milliliter). As a visual you will understand: one ounce is about 30 cc's.This is the same volume as a shot glass or 2 tablespoons.
Breast implants sizes are based on the amount of filling in them (whether saline or silicone). This filling is measured by cubic centimetres, or CC's for short. 1 CC is pretty much the same as 1 millilitre.
A 'cc' is a unit of measure standing for cubic centimeter or a milliliter. Breast implants come in cubic centimeter volumes. An approximate rule of thumb is 150-200cc will boost one's size by a cup size. This is a very loose approximation as this might be entirely true for patients of very tiny or very full stature. The number of cc's to create a particular cup size for you can be estimated by placing various sizers in your bra at your doctor's office. The Vectra imaging device (where available) can also be quite helpful in allowing you to visualize your finished appearance.
Breast implants are measured not by cup size, but by volume. CCs are the units used to measure the volume of breast implants. 5 ccs is the same volume as one teaspoon; 15 ccs is a tablespoon, an ounce is about 28 ccs. And a measuring cup (8 ounces) of fluid is about 238 ccs.During your consultation for breast augmentation, try on different sizers (for example 250 ccs or 350 ccs) in order to get a feel for how many ccs are needed to get you the result you desire.Good luck!
Thank you for your question. CC in Medicine stands for Cubic centimeter. It is the same as ml or milliliter.It is the way to measure volume. I hope this helps.
