Hello c13965-You can estimate your post op size by partially filling some smaller and larger baggies with rice or flax seed and stuffing a bra that you would like to fit. Stuff the bra until you have the desired fullness in lower, upper and lateral breasts. Once you have tried too big and too small and have arrived on a nice fill for your desires, then pour the filling into a measuring cup. Read off what it says in ml. (milliliters) and this is the same as "cc"s. This should give you your answer.BUT, let me address another issue. In my opinion, donut lifts should be used sparingly and only for those patients that have a moderately low nipple-areolar complex (NAC) and a tight lower breast pole curve. This description is not you as I see in your photo. You appear to 'need' a full lift and it will create much prettier and perkier breasts, especially if the implants are also put in the sub muscular position. The extra scars, especially the vertical scar, tend to heal very well and the areolar scar will usually heal better than those in a donut lift. So, confer with your board certified plastic surgeon and make sure that you understand your choices. Good luck.
Since your nipples are located below your breast fold, something more aggressive than a donut lift would most likely be more suitable for you. Please ask your surgeon’s office about sizers. Sizers are implants you can place into your bra to see your predicted results. This will allow you to determine whether you’ll achieve a small D.
yes, a D cup might be the result of a donut lift with 455cc high-profile saline breast implants. That said, a donut lift in conjunction with 455cc high-profile saline breast implants usually produces a discernible increase in breast size and lift. The precise result will vary depending on your specific anatomy and starting place. The purpose of high-profile implants is to provide the appearance of increased projection and fullness. You may anticipate a noticeable increase in breast form and volume when combined with a donut lift, which entails removing off extra skin and realigning the areola and nipple. It's crucial to remember: -Individual differences The outcomes can differ significantly from person to person.-Consultation is essential: You can better grasp your unique possibilities and expectations by speaking with a plastic surgeon. -The healing procedure: As your body becomes used to the implants, it could take a few months for the final effects to become fully apparent. To get a more precise estimate, I suggest talking to a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon about your objectives. They can offer you tailored guidance according to your particular situation. This is only an estimate, and the final result will vary depending on a number of factors, such as: -Your initial size: You're more likely to get a D cup if your breasts were smaller in the first place. -What kind of body are you? Your body proportions and natural breast shape may affect the outcome.-Technique of the surgeon: Achieving the intended result is greatly influenced by the surgeon's expertise and experience. Implant placement: Your breasts' size and form may be impacted by the way the implants are positioned. It's crucial to keep in mind that getting a particular cup size isn't the main objective of breast augmentation. Overall balance, symmetry, and outcomes that seem natural are important to many women.Hope this was helpful!Best wishes,Dr Ali Sajjadian TRIPLE Board Certified Plastic Surgeon
You will probably be a D cup. I agree that you need a lift along with implants but I prefer the lollipop lift over the donut lift. You will get better lift out of it and the avoid the problem of a stretched out areola we so often see with the donut lift.
Hard to know exactly but I find every 300cc usually goes up about a cup and half in size so you can use that as a kind of guide
There is no way to guarantee a particular bra size as bra sizing varies greatly between manufacturers. You need a thorough sizing session with your PS to determine the look and feel that appeals to you the most, regardless of whether you call it a "d" or a"c", etc.
Thank you for your question. It is much better to accurately discuss implant volume and projection with an in office exam and detailed measurements. In order to make an accurate size recommendation, I would need to assess your chest wall and breast mound measurements/characteristics. I use these measurements to help me during the sizing process to guide you to a safe result for your chest wall and just as important, one that meets your end desires.The next step is to try on this range of implants in the office with your doctor. The key to this success is showing your surgeon the body proportion you desire with a bra sizer and allowing your surgeon to guide you to the right implant. It will be much easier to communicate in implant cc's than cup size when determining the appropriate implant for you during the sizing process. In addition, review of photos and use of rice bags can be very helpful to the patient and surgeon in achieving a safe and happy result. Close intereaction and involvement from your surgeon during this process can help alleviate the anxiety and fears of choosing the right size. I wish you a safe recovery and fantastic result.Dr. Gill
Is see two issues. If only having a donut lift than a more volumed implant will/would be recommended - 550 to 600 cc range. If using the present volume than a full lifting operation would be recommended.///
I would be concerned about how much your skin will tolerate.Please find an experienced Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and member of the Aesthetic Society using the Smart Beauty Guide. These Plastic Surgeons can guide you on all aspects of facial surgery, breast augmentation and body procedures including tummy tucks or mommy makeovers!
Thank you for your question. Without the benefit of an exam, but based on the implants you have chosen combined with a lift you should get to the small D you are looking for. I would make sure you have communicated your aesthetic goals to your plastic surgeon so they can help you achieve the results you want. Good luck.
