Currently small deflated 32c, 5’6, 118lbs .. wondering what size implants to get to get me to a 32dd? (Photo)

Dear cl520,
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.

Thank you for your question and sending your pictures. You did not mention if the implants will be under or above the muscle. Without the benefit of a physical exam, it appears by your pictures that a 375 cc implant will give you the result you are looking for. It may be difficult to place a larger implant than that if you are going submuscular. It is best that you discuss this with your surgeon and perhaps some larger sizes can be brought the day of surgery along with some sizers in case the pocket is large enough for a bigger implant. Good luck!

The key here is to look at the starting ingredients- you have a small frame with fairly narrow base width of the breasts, and you already have well developed breast tissue. In your case, 250 cc implants would likely give you the desired result. Best wishes with a happy recovery.
