Do you typically recommend under 600cc when have a breast lift done at the same time or does it depend on the breast tissue and BWD?
Answer: Ideally under 300cc Combining a breast lift with implants is not something to be done lightly. Without careful planning, you can run into a host of problems including wound breakdown and loss of the nipple-areola complex. One of the most important safety measures to take is limiting the size of the implant. Ideally, I keep the implant size under 300cc. If you need a lift and ultimately want an implant larger than that, it is better to upsize in a second operation, or do the operation in two stages.

Answer: Implant volume and cup size The size of the breast implant depends on the patients goal. At size 32 or 34, each 100 cc of implant corresponds to 1 cup size change. At size 36 or 38, each 200 cc of implant corresponds to 1 cup size change. Once you know your beginning cup size and your desired cup size then you can compute the volume required to achieved your desired goal.

Answer: Criteria for implant size Hello @yeeks thank you for your question. Is important to understand there is no standard process. Each patient must have a personalized evaluation to take into account all factors that will affect the final result. This way we can define not only the volume but the technique to perform the breast lift in your surgical plan. For more information and recommendations is best to consult with one or several board certified plastic surgeons. Best wishes! Alan Gonzalez MD, FACS.

Answer: BL/BA Hi, thank you for sharing your question. This combination of procedures has a high complication profile and therefore the size of the implant should be selected with careful consideration to prevent wound healing issues or compromise of the circulation to the nipples. I hope this helps.
