Hello! I'm getting surgery in a month and I'm not sure about the size yet. My main objective is to obtain the most natural look. I am 170cm, my bra size is 80A or 32A, chest contour 76cm and breast contour 82cm. I'm planning to get 140cc or 175cc under the muscle, anatomicals but now I'm worried that they might look to separate o like two tennis balls in my chest. What do you think? I just want to get a size bigger and don't want to get big breasts, just my size but fuller!

Answer: Do Small Implants Look More Natural? I am an A Cup Now.
With your body frame, small implants definitely will achieve the "natural look" you are looking for. Since you do not have much breast tissue to cover the implants, I would suggest for you to go with silicone gel implants, which feels more realistic(breast-like) than saline implants and minimize the ripple look. As a possible alternative to using anatomical implants, consider using either low profile or moderate profile implants. As for your question about if you breasts will look too separated after the augmentation, it will really depend on your nipple position and how your rib cage is shaped. Without seeing you in person, it is difficult for any doctor to definitively answer your questions. My best advice is to sit down with your plastic surgeon before your surgery, and let him or her know your questions and concerns. Try on some implants, then make your decision.

Answer: Do Small Implants Look More Natural? I am an A Cup Now.Answr:
While it's true that really big implants can look really fake, I think at times, too small of an implant looks even more tennis ball...We saw that a lot in the 80's when very small implants were used....and 140cc or even 175cc are really small....I think too small in most women who are an A cup....So for my patients I suggest they go a little bigger and a little wider....

Answer: For a more "Natural" appearance, smaller, gel implants are best
Hi there-
Assuming all other things are equal and that you are a good candidate for augmentation, a smaller implant is less likely to look like an implant than a larger one.
If the most natural slope is important, I would also say that most women (especially thin women with very little of their own breast tissue) are best served by a gel implant.
I, personally, do not agree with the use of anatomic implants.

Answer: Smaller Breast Implants look more “Natural”?
Thank you for the question.
Yes, all other variables being equal, smaller breast implants do tend to look more “natural”.
In order to achieve your goals it will be very important to communicate very clearly with your plastic surgeon. When patients use the words “natural looking" , they are leaving a lot open to interpretation. In other words, those words may mean different things to different people. Also, discussing different cup sizes may mean different things to different people and will differ depending on who makes the bra.
In my practice, I find the use of goal pictures to be very helpful. These pictures help with the communication; sometimes for example I am surprised when patients show me pictures of what they consider to be “natural looking breasts".
Again, the more you are able to communicate your goals with your plastic surgeon, the better. Keep in mind also that the most common regret after the surgery is “I wish I was bigger”.
I hope this helps.

Answer: Even Small Breast Implants Can Look Unnatural Everyone knows that extra large breast implants can look unnatural. But, small breast implants can look unnatural as well. Selecting the appropriate size and shape of implants is imperative. Many plastic surgery websites include dozens of images of women with very, very small breasts who have a natural, conservative looking result. Please look at all the videos about small and natural looking breast augmentation on Realself.
