I’m 20, 4’11, 98lbs and a 32B. I want to be a 34DD is this possible on me? How many ccs is a 34DD silicone breast implant?

The 32 and 34 refers to the circumference around the chest wall. At size 32 you will not become a 34 but will remain a 32. At size 32, each 100 cc of implant corresponds to 1 cup size change. To go from a 32 B to a DD would require 300 cc implants. Implants are not living tissue, are not attached to the body and will descend in time. Also, if you become pregnant, your breasts will stretch. The combination of implants and pregnancy often results in dissatisfied appearance after pregnancies. I recommend you consider the smallest implants as possible.

Depending on the individual anatomy and desired results, estimations and measurements should be made for each patient individually after a detailed mutual conversation. The elements that form up the breast shape and size and the overall frame can be different in each person. It will be best to consult a board certified plastic surgeon who is experienced in cosmetic breast surgery in person and discuss your goals and options after a physical examination.

Hello, thank you for your question. Your board certified plastic surgeon will be able to guide you to the correct size implant. Based upon measurements of your chest wall and breast imprint width as well as knowledge of all breast implant sizes and profiles should make this process easy. Try on a profile bra with various silicone cc sizers your PS recommends under a tailored blouse, tank top, bikini, workout clothes, and other garments you typically wear so that you have the best idea of whether the garments fit as desired with the implant selected. Select the size that boosts your self-esteem, and fits your anatomy. Choosing an implant based on an aesthetic goal that exceeds your anatomic capacity may lead to complications and possibly revision.

It is the stretching of your breast tissues from the milk of pregnancy, not the act of breastfeeding that can affect future sagginess. And, what can happen to your breasts can change from pregnancy to pregnancy. After I measure and discuss goals with my patients, we then look at pictures of former patients with similar measurements with different size and style breast implants. My patients tell me that this process is very helpful in determining what size breast implant is right for them. They also get to see what they would look like when the implants 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. Dr. Ted Eisenberg, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and Author.

Thank you for your question and photograph. Breast implant selection is an exciting, but stressful part of the breast augmentation process as there are so many choices. Unfortunately it is impossible to recommend the best implant style, profile, 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 seeing a series of ASPS board certified plastic surgeons that can allow you to "try on" several different implants so that you can have a better visual representation as to what they would look like.
