I've wanted breast implants for as long as I can remember. I don't HATE my breasts, they're not lopsided, sagging, etc. I'm honestly quite content with them, but I've still always wanted BIGGER. I've always been jealous of women that have 2-3 cups sizes bigger than what looks "natural" without looking super fake. Although I don’t mind the semi-fake look. I really know NOTHING so what CC's would y’all suggest?? Apologies for the "sexy" pics, I have nothing else on hand at the moment.
Answer: Points for the Newbie Unfortunately, the larger the implant you choose, the less 'natural' they will appear, so some people have to compromise between choosing the size they want or limiting it to look softer. Having said that, I've almost never heard someone complain that they look fake, but have heard many wish they went bigger. Proper planning (implant selection) and execution of the surgery makes the difference between a 3% and a 30% risk of reoperation within three years, so choosing an expert is important. The problem is it seems everyone does breast augmentation, but few are experts. In Georgia, there are a few good surgeons you can rely on. Implant selection should not be by committee on a platform like Realself. The two most accurate ways to determine your volumetric requirements to obtain your goal is either using purpose built sizers or by digital simulation photography. My preference is sizing, something I've been doing for 18 of my 22 years in practice and it has virtually eliminated what I like to call wrong size surgery.

Answer: Be seen in person Your best implant size cannot be determined by your pictures and description alone. You should be seen in person by a well-trained and experienced plastic surgeon who you like, and with them go through the sizing process. In my practice, we talk about your goal cup size (though cup size is far from perfect), measure your breast base width and several other metrics, and do sizing with breast form sizers, which go under a special bra and give you an idea of the look and feel of a breast implant of a certain size on your body. Finally, we look at any "goal" or "wish" photographs you have. Based on all these metrics, we pick a breast implant size and go with it! All of this data and discussion helps you make the most informed choice so we both feel as confident as possible about the size you choose. Best of luck!

Answer: Breast augmentation size Hi. Looks like you would be a great candidate for breast augmentation. I think that trying on the different size implants can give you the best idea of what each one looks like on you. That way, you can choose one that will give you what you want without making you look too big or not big enough. Go for an in-person consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon that offers this, so that you can answer your question for yourself, and also get his/her advice on what size will help you achieve your goal. Best of luck!

Answer: Implants I would suggest that you meet with a board certified plastic surgeon, be examined and measured, and try on the range of sizes that best fits your frame and tissue. Then, you can actually see what size you like.

Answer: Choosing the right size and profile breast implants for you I recommend an in person consultation with a plastic surgeon to discuss your goals and be measured. 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, and they choose what looks right for them. 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. Dr. Ted Eisenberg, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and Author.

Answer: Breast augmentation You appear to be a great candidate for breast augmentation. For a more natural look and feel you will want to consider a silicone implant placed beneath the muscle. In addition to volume you also need to consider style and projection. The best place to begin is a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon near you. I've included a video that I hope you find helpful.
