Do Surgeon's Refer to the Cc's As What They Filled or the Physical Implant Size?

Asked By:Bainbridge600 in Bainbridge, PA

For example, if you posted a picture of a patient with an implant size that reads 300 cc's, is that the actual size of the implant or what was filled into the implant? I'm scheduled to get a 250 cc Mentor Moderate Plus saline implant filled to 300. I'm trying to look at pictures online, but am not sure if I should look at augmentations labeled 250cc's or 300 cc's.
