I am 5’5”, 114, 43 year old business professional and pretty slender, 32/34a, 12cm and hoping to be a full C, most importantly, want to avoid the stripper look. I initially chose 345 under the muscle versus 370 as 370 seemed huge. Doc said at the consult 345 would get me C in most bras, D in Victoria Secret. I changed to 365 as I heard when in doubt, go bigger and heard sizers aren’t accurate, imagine 10% smaller due to muscle compression. Is this accurate? Will 365 be too big??
Answer: Breast Implants Thank you for your question. for a more natural results and not so big you can but 260cc which is very natural but also 365cc is also a breast cc which is not too much and you will be happy with the results.

Answer: Is 365 too big? (Photo) Breast implant size has nothing to do with bra cup size - which varies with each bra manufacturer as you noted. The average implant volume placed in the US is 350 cc. A very general estimate is that one cup size is 150 to 200 cc of volume, but realize that no direct correlation exists between the two. None of the modalities to approximate final results from breast implants are 100% accurate; they merely facilitate the patient and the board certified PS concurring on the size and type of breast implant which will come the closest to reaching the patient's goal. My patients prefer to try on sizers under garments they typically wear to determine if they fit as expected and help allay some of their trepidation associated with this decision. I would recommend that you go with the size that boosts your self-esteem, and fits your anatomy.

Answer: Choosing the right size breast implants for you After I measure and discuss goals with my patients, we then look at pictures of former patients with similar measurements with different size and style breast implants. My patients tell me that this process is very helpful in determining what size breast implant is right for them. They also get to see what they would look like when the implants 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. Dr. Ted Eisenberg, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and Author.

Answer: Implant size Dear mbrommie, 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: Is 365 too big? Thank you for your question and photograph. Breast implant selection is an exciting, but stressful part of the breast augmentation process as there are so many choices. Unfortunately it is impossible to recommend the best implant style, size or shape without an in-person examination that allows for the measurement of key breast parameters, as well as permits an in-depth discussion as to your desired goals and outcome. I would recommend discussing your concerns further with your plastic surgeon to ensure that the implants you decide upon are the right ones to meet your expectations, and I think finding one that will allow you to "try on" sizers so that you can have a better visual representation would be best. Best wishes
