PS said that only 235cc HP would fit me. Can this be true?

Hi & thanks for your question!
With out examining you in person I can't answer the question. Reach out to a surgeon in your area for a 2nd opinion. Best wishes!

Dear Thriving70212,
breast implant type and sizing selection is a complicated process and requires a detailed consultation that includes a discussion of your goals, a detailed examination, and a lengthy discussion. But the decision will always start and end with the patient. When it comes to sizing, we have all of our patients find 3 photos of their desired breast size. We ask for naked breast photos because clothing can obscure the true size (push up bras). Next, we consult with patients and go over the photos and take detailed breast measurements during a physical exam. Next, we using a sizing algorithm to determine a range of implants that will work based on the exam and the measurements.Lastly, during the operation, we use silicone sizers in the operating room to see how the size actually looks in the breast. We sit the patient up in the operating room, while asleep of course, and compare the sizer result with their desired look photos. If it is too small, we start the process over with a slightly larger implant. We don't stop until we get the perfect match.Of all of my breast augmentation patients, every one of them has been happy with their size due to this detailed and meticulous process. You don't want to invest time and money into a result that is either too big or too small.You should discuss your concerns with a board-certified plastic surgeon and make sure that your surgeon understands your goals.

After I measure and discuss goals with my patients, we then look at pictures of women (my patients) with similar measurements with different size and style breast implants, and they choose what looks right for them. They also get to see what they would look like when the breasts have fully dropped and fluffed and in clothes. You get to see actual results and the surgeon's experience and not a virtual idea of what can be achieved. Women tell me that this process is very helpful in determining what size and style breast implant is right for them. Dr. Ted Eisenberg, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and Author.

Thank you for sharing your question. Unfortunately it is impossible to recommend the best implant style, size or shape without an in-person examination that allows for the measurement of key breast parameters, as well as permits an in-depth discussion as to your desired goals and outcome. I would recommend continuing to discuss your concerns with your plastic surgeon or seek additional consultations to ensure that the implants you decide upon are the right ones to meet your expectations. Best wishes!

The best indicator of implant size (diameter) is breast width. Once the diameter is determined, you can discuss what profile (projection) is best for you. Going with a 'big' implant can have adverse effects such as nipple widening and numbness, early dropping, and side displacement. You can always get a second opinion just to be sure.

Thank you for your question! It is always best to consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon in person. When determining breast implant size, it is very important to consider an individual's characteristics. Breast measurements are particularly important. It is crucial that a breast implant does not exceed the breast base width in order to have a natural appearing result.

Yes, it is probably true. Let your surgeon who has examined and measured you be the one to guide you to your maximum size. If you go over this size, your tissue will thin and your breasts will probably sag from the weight with time.

An examination or further information would be needed to properly answer your question. When considering breast augmentation it's a good idea to visit with a few board certified plastic surgeons near you to hear varying opinions. I've included a video on breast augmentation and implant selection that I hope you find helpful.
