I am pondering between getting 350 or 375 Inspira SRX or SRF implants. I don't want to look "fake". I have a very petite frame. I want more of a natural look. I am 26 yr old, 5'3, no kids, 107 lbs, and I'm a 32 A with 12.3 cm of breast width. My PS and I decided on 375 cc Inspira SRX, but now I'm thinking I might look exaggerated big. What if I get the SRF instead, is it a big difference? I'm attaching my VECTRA photos, a full body photo, and my wish boobs. Thanks!
Answer: Hard to say- you'd need a consult | Breast Implants | Augmentation | Lift | Fat Grafting | Aesthetic Plastic Surgery | Expert Hello and thank you for your question. Honestly, a formal in-person evaluation would be needed to determine the best treatment. There are several reasons for this: 1) Bra sizes vary based on the clothing store (for example, Victoria's Secret tends to upsize everyone by a whole cup size) 2) Most women do not wear the proper exact fitting bra size for their bodies 3) The exact volume (in cc) needed to change cup size is different for different body types (e.g. 32A to 32D requires a different implant size than 38A to 38D) 4) Be careful NOT to fall into the trap most women do- they see a certain implant size (e.g. 285 cc) or perhaps their friend had a certain size, and they want or request this or another size based on that. Everyone's body is different- 285 cc implants on your friend might look VERY different than they would on you. Be very careful not to make this mistake, because the goal is to find the right size and shape for YOU- for your particular body and your breasts. Because of those multiple factors, and because it is KEY to fully evaluate your breasts in person to make a full set of precise measurements to select the proper implant for you (incorporating factors like amount of breast tissue, implant type, base width, projection, etc), answering your question really would need a formal personalized consultation- to say anything before that would simply be guessing, which would be both unfair and unhelpful to you. Also, just FYI, each surgeon's measurements are slightly different, so numbers, experience, and overall aesthetic from one surgeon aren't necessarily the same as those from another surgeon! Your breasts are such a KEY area of your body and your femininity- therefore, you should ONLY trust an experienced aesthetic plastic surgeon. As such an expert, I have had extensive training and experience with complex aesthetic surgeries under a multiple world-renowned experts in the field. I’d recommend for you to setup a formal consultation with me (or another plastic surgeon who is extremely comfortable with aesthetic plastic surgery procedures) for a formal consultation to thoroughly discuss your surgical goals, undergo a formal examination, evaluate all your options (surgical and nonsurgical), and decide on the best procedure(s) and type of anesthesia for your specific case. I hope this helps! Dr. Donald Groves Aesthetic Plastic Surgeon

Answer: Pondering between 350/375cc Inspira SRX or SRF implants. Thank you for sharing your question and photographs. In general the higher the projection of implant the less natural the result. Though sizing is difficult without an in-person evaluation I would recommend voicing your concerns to your surgeon in order to get the best advice. "Natural" means different things to each patient. Hope this helps.

Answer: Pondering between 350 or 375 cc Natrelle Inspira SRX or SRF on my petite frame. Which will look less "fake"? "X" projection implants always look fake when used for breast augmentation. On a small frame "F" projection can also look fake but to a lesser degree. If you really want a "natural" look then consider teardrop shaped implants. Best to discuss this with your surgeon though as they'll know your specific details better than any of us online will. Best of luck!

Answer: Natural breast augmentation results. Thanks for sharing your question and photos.You appear to be on the right track in terms of your thoughts about breast augmentation. I do believe in tissue based planning (which means evaluating each patient to determine what their body is likely to support) and also use 3-D imaging to communicate more in depth with patients about results that are realistic on their body frame. In general the less projecting implant will give a more natural result. The ultra- high projections like the SRX tend to give more pronounced roundness in the upper portion of the breast and this can give a more "augmented" look. I would encourage a follow up discussion with your board certified plastic surgeon to clarify your goals.Best Wishes
