The only way for you to determine which size is best for you is to try on sizers. Your perception of the best volume is different than everyone else.
Thank you for the question and pictures. Although potentially useful to some degree, online “consultations” cannot be as precise as necessary. There is no reliable correlation between the number of cc utilized and increase in breast cup size achieved. The commonly utilized formula of 200 to 250 mL equates to one breast cup size is not accurate in many cases, in my opinion. Ultimately, careful communication of your goals, careful measurements (dimensional planning), careful selection of appropriate breast implants and skillful execution of the procedure will be important steps in achieving your goals.Generally speaking, the best online advice I can give to ladies who are considering breast augmentation surgery is:1. Concentrate on choosing your plastic surgeon carefully. Concentrate on appropriate training, certification, and the ability of the plastic surgeon to achieve the results you are looking for. Ask to see lots of examples of his/her work.2. Have a full discussion and communication regarding your desired goals with your plastic surgeon. This communication will be critical in determining breast implant size/type/profile will most likely help achieve your goals. In my practice, the use of photographs of “goal” pictures (and breasts that are too big or too small) is very helpful. I have found that the use of words such as “natural” or “D or DD cup” etc means different things to different people and therefore prove unhelpful. Also, as you know, cup size varies depending on him who makes the bra; therefore, discussing desired cup size may also be inaccurate.3. Once you feel you have communicated your goals clearly, allow your plastic surgeon to use his/her years of experience/judgment to choose the breast implant size/profile that will best meet your goals. Again, in my practice, this decision is usually made during surgery.I hope this (and the attached link) help. Best wishes.
