I am currently a 34B. I am due to have 510cc silicone implants placed under the muscle combined with a breast lift. Can anyone give me guidance on what bra size I will end up. My surgeon has suggested it may be a 34DD/E.
Answer: What size will I end up after getting 510cc Silicone implants? Thank you for the question. There is no accurate correlation between size of breast implant and cup size achieved.

Answer: Predicting cup size after breast augmentation Your question about estimating your cup size after a breast augmentation and lift is a really good one, and what we tell our patients is that it is really difficult to do so. What matters more I think is if you like to look, size and shape of the breasts after the procedure, and understanding that the bra size can vary depending on where you are fitted or the type of bra you choose. If you feel a bit uncomfortable about the size, I would suggest chatting with your surgeon prior to surgery and perhaps resizing implants as well. Hope that helps and good luck!

Answer: Post op Size Any size estimate is exactly that, an estimate. As bra's all run differently and cup size varies based on your band. You will also loose a small amount of volume because of the lift. Your surgeon is the best person to guesstimate cup size for you. But remember, it is a guess.

Answer: BBA There is no way to guarantee a particular bra size. Bra sizing varies greatly between bra manufacturers and a C in one bra will be a D in another. What matters more than the assigned bra size is the way the implant looks on you. The best option for your body and aesthetic goals can be determined in a thorough implant sizing session.Implant sizing depends on several factors. One of the most important factors is your breast width. Generally, your surgeon will measure your breast width, and then provide you with a range of implant sizes appropriate for your native breast size. There are more nuances to it than just what I've described, but this approach works for most women.I usually have my patients bring in a large bra and a tight t-shirt to do sizing. I'll then choose 3-4 implants that I feel are appropriate, and have my patients place them in the bra under the tight t-shirt. My patients can then look in the mirror and get a good sense of what they will look like with the provided implant sizes. My patients like this approach and get a great idea of how they will look.By using this technique, your surgeon can outline a range of appropriate implant sizes that will be aesthetically pleasing, and you make the final decision.I hope this helps. Good luck!

Answer: Size after augmentation mastopexy In order to better answer your question photos at a minimum would be helpful... But consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon is best. Take the time to get a second opinion or at least revisit the surgeon you have selected already. The implant choice will have a lot to do with your dimensions of chest/breasts prior to augmentation. I utilize VECTRA 3D imaging to help patients determine breast implant choice, both with and without mastopexy. Best of luck to you.
