I'm currently a 32B and am going to schedule a consultation for a breast augmentation. I'd love to be around a D cup and was wondering what implant profile/ size might make for a natural look? I'm 5'7 and 150 Ibs. Any advice would help :)
Answer: Wondering what implant might look best with current 32B breast size? The best cosmetic result in any particular breast augmentation patient depends on a variety of factors, including: Your individual anatomy, desired outcome, realistic expectations, a thorough discussion with the plastic surgeon about the options, and an understanding of the pros and cons of any particular implant choice. Proper sizing is not just about the number of cc’s. or the type of implant. The thickness of your tissue, breast dimensions which include the width, height, and projection, as well as chest wall width all need to be considered when choosing an implant. Trying on implant “sizers” of various shapes and volumes while wearing a tight t-shirt, bra, or bathing suit at a preoperative visit will help you and your surgeon choose the optimal implant. Keep in mind that following the advice from a surgeon on this or any other website who proposes to tell you exactly what to do without examining you, physically feeling the tissue, assessing your desired outcome, taking a full medical history, and discussing the pros and cons of each operative procedure would not be in your best interest. I would suggest that your plastic surgeon be certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and ideally a member of the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS) that you trust and are comfortable with. You should discuss your concerns with that surgeon in person. Robert Singer, MD FACS La Jolla, California

Answer: Best implant to increase 2 cup sizes If your chest circumference is 32 then a cup size is about 100 cc for you. So an implant between 200 to 300 cc will give you the cup size. However, the shape that you want matters too. If you want a natural look or a push up bra look, it will be different. What matters most is the diameter of the implant has to match your breast diameter.

Answer: Sizing Breast implant sizing is based on your tissue based measurements. Based on these measurements (and goal), there is truly only a small range of volume that can achieve a safe, predictable outcome. I would recommend seeing a board-certified plastic surgeon with extensive experience in aesthetic breast surgery.

Answer: Implant volume At size 32, each 100 cc of implant corresponds to 1 cup size change. If you are a B and want to be a D then you would only need 200 cc implants. The profile is usually not that critical in the retro-pectoral position since the muscle compresses the implant. Best Wishes, Gary Horndeski, M.D.

Answer: No one can tell you what only you know What looks best to you can only be determined by you. Choosing the right implant to achieve that look can only be determined in two ways: either simulation software or in office sizing, preferably with purpose built sizers and not actual implants. Although there's a lot of whiz bang with 3D photo simulation, and it has been clinically validated, I prefer the simple technique of using sizers in the office. The patient looks at herself in the mirror (or we take videos for her to take home) of how she looks in clothing with sizers in place. The patient is the one to determine what she likes to see in the mirror, and the surgeon's perception is cut out (because it's irrelevant). It is virtually foolproof and in almost two decades of use, has eliminated a very problematic situation I call wrong size surgery.
