Hi, I'm 25, about 5'2, 110 lbs and I wear a 34B bra. I went for my consult today and decided on silicone, 470cc, under, higher profile. I just want to look fuller w/o being super round up top. I don't mind if it's a little bit big but not too much. I also don't want to regret getting an implant too small and want to try and fill the gap between my breasts as much as possible and obviously have a nice cleavage and side boob. What do you think of the size? Should I go w/450cc or a little bit smaller?

Answer: Difference between 470 and 450cc is minimal To choose a breast implant size you need to try on sizers and see if you are happy with what you like in the mirror. Nobody can tell you what will make you happy or not. It's all about what you like when you look into the mirror. As to the difference between 470 and 450.... one implant is just a few MILLIMETERS smaller than the other so it really makes very little difference.If really unsure, schedule another meeting with your clinic for sizing and make sure you're happy with what you see in the mirror when you try on different implants.

Answer: Is 470cc too large for my frame? 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. 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 sit 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 what to do based on limited 2 dimensional photos 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 you find a plastic surgeon 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
