I am having trouble deciding between 415 & 450. I really like how the 400 sizer looked on me but I was told that the implants will look roughly 10% smaller when healed. Should I go up to 450 so that they look like 400s or stick with 415 (or even 385)? Also, another thing I’m considering is being able to downplay my breasts if needed so I don’t want to look too large. I do have a good amount of breast tissue already so it’s hard to figure out if I’ll be too large?
Answer: Size I would suggest going back to your surgeon and trying on sizes again. With your own breast tissue, I think the smaller size will look very nice and not be too big.

Answer: Choosing the right size breast implants for you I recommend consultation with a plastic surgeon to be measured and discuss your goals. After I measure and discuss goals with my patients, we then look at pictures of women (my patients) with similar measurements with different size and style breast implants. They also get to see what they would look like when the breasts have fully dropped and fluffed and in clothes. You get to see actual results and the surgeon's experience and not a virtual idea of what can be achieved. Women tell me that this process is very helpful in determining what size and style breast implant is right for them. You should also be aware that results of surgery can change in the future with significant weight change and/or stretching of skin from the milk of pregnancy.

Answer: 5’0 115lbs starting at 32C, can I get a second opinion on picking the best implant size? (Photos) There is not a lot of difference between the 400cc, 415cc, and 450cc in overall result.

Answer: 5’0 115lbs starting at 32C, can I get a second opinion on picking the best implant size? The best cosmetic result in any particular breast augmentation patient depends on a variety of factors, including: Your individual anatomy, desired outcome, realistic expectations, a thorough discussion with the plastic surgeon about the options, and an understanding of the pros and cons of any particular implant choice. Proper sizing is not just about the number of cc’s. or the type of implant. The thickness of your tissue, breast dimensions which include the width, height, and projection, as well as chest wall width all need to be considered when choosing an implant. Trying on implant “sizers” of various shapes and volumes while wearing a tight t-shirt, bra, or bathing suit at a preoperative visit will help you and your surgeon choose the optimal implant.
