I am 23 years old, weigh 110 pounds and am 5'7". I've always been tall and skinny and have a AA cup. I am considering getting breast implants to become a full A/small B cup. Would 100cc be enough to accomplish that and would it look natural on my tiny frame? Also, is that enough to give me any cleavage? I'm not looking to be large or have a ton of cleavage, I just want to fill shirts and dresses out more than I can right now.

Answer: Choosing Small Breast Implants Small Breast Implants- How to choose size?It is very difficult to determine the exact size and shape of implant that will get you the results you desire without an examination by a board certified plastic surgeon. This is because several measurements not to mention your breast characteristics are needed to determine the optimal implant size to obtain your goals. Without knowing these dimensions it would be tough to answer your question. For example your native base width of your breast will determine in many cases the maximal volume per implant profile that you can accommodate. To illustrate a 100 cc difference may make a significant difference with a narrow base width, but much less of a difference if you have a wide chest wall and wide breast “foot print”. Additional critical decisions will also be made by your plastic surgeon such as: whether your implants will be above or below your pectoralis muscle. These choices are recommended to you based on the look you desire, the amount of sagging you may have, and other deciding factors. I always find it helpful for patients to bring in photos from my or other plastic surgeons’ websites to illustrate what they would like to look like. I bring these photos to the operating room for reference during surgery so that I have the advantage of “seeing through my patient’s eyes” to achieve their wishes.I personally order more than one set of implant sizes and use sterile sizers placed in the pocket during surgery to know in advance exactly which implant would work best for you. Software morphing programs can be helpful in some but not all cases (e.g. doesn't work well in my experience with existing implants, sagging or asymmetric breasts).My advice is to accept advice from your board certified plastic surgeon after a formal consultation and examination with measurements.. If still confused don't hesitate to get a second opinion.

Answer: Natural appearing augmentations using smaller implants
Although its tempting to choose a very small implant to achieve a desired result - your best option is to be examined by a board certified plastic surgeon and express your interests in looking very natural with a small amount of augmentation. An implant will be chosen that fits your breast well.

Answer: Sizing is done during your consultation.
100 CC's is pretty small. Implant sizes depend on many measurements. Schedule a consultation and try on different implant sizes to see which look you like.
