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: Breast Augmentation with Mini Ultimate Breast Lift(TM) At size 34 each 100 cc’s of implant corresponds to 1 cup

Answer: 450-470 cc implant sounds too big for your weight and height. You don't want to destroy your skin and breast tissue by having implants that are too big. There is only so much elasticity to the skin and the weight of the implants will make your breasts 'sag' very quickly. Your back and neck will also become tired from wearing a bras carrying that much weight. You can alway enhance the size of your breasts after implant surgery (push up bras, tight clothing etc) but you can't go back if you pick an implant that is too big. Some patients want their breasts to be the most noticeable part of their body; in that case 450-470 cc implants are not too big for you. Wishing you the best with your decision!

Answer: Too big? My key determinant of what constitutes "too big" is the base width of your breast. I recommend to my patients that they choose an implant that in no wider than their natural breast dimensions. If the implant is wider than their breast, it is too big. If you have chosen a high profile implant that does not exceed your base width and you think this much volume looks good on your frame, then it is the right size for you. How did you choose this size? If it was just by pictures in before/after galleries, I would go back to my surgeon and place that implant in your bra and see how you think it looks on your frame.

Answer: What happens if you choose too big of a breast implant? Choose an implant that is too small, and you will generally look better, just not as much as you hoped. Too big an implant may cause the following problems:1. excessive pain (muscle and nerves stretched)2.wound healing problems with potential implant extrusion 3. neck and back pain4. limited athletic activity5. stretch marks and skin stretched out- even if you take out the implants, your breasts will be permanently stretched and look deflated, which will require a breast lift to fix6. greater difficulty from breast enlargement during pregnancy7.rippling or folding if implant is too wide to lie flatConsider a consultation with another surgeon to help you decide if you have chosen the right size for you.

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.
