I am 5'7 153 lbs 36 A cup pre surgery and BWD is 14cm. The implant my ps has selected is mentor smooth round high profile. My strong desire is either D or DD. Does this seem possible with 650 cc's ? Thanks for your time :)

Answer: Breast implant size selection Dear Niki,For your height, a 650 CC implant will likely put you into the D or DD range. Of course, implant size and cup size are two different issues and may vary considerably based on many factors including bra brand, chest width, and implant type. My best recommendation for you is to try on sizers in your plastic surgeons office and see if you like the way you look with 650 CC implants. There is the added question of whether 650 CC implants would fit your breast tissue envelope. Very tight skin and breast tissue may only allow a certain size of implant to be placed.All the best,Dr. Remus Repta

Answer: Cup Size After BAM It is difficult to predict what cup size you may be because cup sizes vary widely by designers. So a D cup in one designer could be a C or B cup in another. In terms of breast implant sizing, there are several factors that plastic surgeons consider when recommending implant sizes. I consider two factors when selecting implants for my patients:1. Dimensional planning2. Gel Implant Sizing systemDimensional planning – The measurements of your chest wall are taken. Also, the breast dimensions including the height, width, and current dimensions of each breast form the basis of dimensional planning. Based on these measurements, the implant size is recommended. This will give you a unique breast implant that is suited for your body frame. However, there are some limitations of what size we can recommend. For instance, some implants may just be too big for a narrow chest wall. Your surgeon can review this with you during the consultation.Gel Implant Sizing system – During the preliminary breast implant consultation, you will be provided with an option to “try on” a variety of implant shapes and sizes. You can also visualize the possible outcomes of your surgery which helps you to get that perfect size to give you the shape that you longed for. This way your preferences are known and you can then pick a range of implants that will “fit” just right to give a soft natural fuller look. Hope this helps.Dr. BasuHouston, TX
