I'm a Small Girl, 90 Lbs and 5 Foot Tall. Will 300 CC's Be Too Big?

C
carrinohioJun 7, 2011

I am concerned that 300 cc's may be too big, but I definitely want my breasts to be noticeable but natural looking at the same time. My doc said I have until Thursday to go smaller if I am not comfortable with 300 and can go to 275 if I want. I have been struggling with the decision. I am probably 34 AAA and have had one child but did not breast feed. I have scoliosis which causes asymmetry on the right side. He will go under the breast muscle with a high profile cohesive silicone gel implant.

At 5'2," with a history of stretching out to a D cup during pregnancy and a C cup before pregnancy, I don't think a 400-425cc is too big for you.  Every 200cc will increase you size about 1 cup size.  In my practice you would come in for a final visit and you would actually try on a range of s...

Thanks for your question! Do not take anything the day of your surgery unless you were instructed to. Leading up to surgery it is okay to take Tylenol . It is always best to check with your surgeon before taking any medication. Best wishes!

There's not much difference between 320 and 345. However, just to let you know that one of the biggest regrets from patients after they've had surgery (aside from saying that they'd wished they had done it sooner) is that they wished that they had gone bigger.
