My doctor recommended anywhere from 450 ccs - 550 ccs. I am 5'7" 145 lbs with a BWD is 13.8. I am not looking to go above the "typical" DD due to finding bras and being active. I know not to focus on cup size too much but I want to get different opinions on what would be best for my body type based on stats.

Answer: What's the best volume for your goals? Thanks for your question, and for the photographs.It's very hard to correlate C C.s and cup size. Different stores and manufacturers measure cup size differently. In my own practice I rarely quote a cup size because it is just not very precise.Generally I find that the best teaching tool is to allow patients to put actual implants in a testing bra to get a sense of the width, projection, and volume that they're looking for. I personally believe that looking at actual implants on your own frame is the best teaching tool. Photographs can also help provide information about your goals as well.While there are other options such as computer programs, bags of rice and water, actual implants have specific dimensions that I don't feel that these things do well at mimicking.Ask your surgeon to show you examples of different implants, but more importantly, bring some different blouses with you and even a friend for an opinion. Think less about the number itself then how the implant balances with your frame and fits your goals.I hope that this is been helpful for you.

Answer: Breasts implants size Dear Lindsmarie, Thanks for submitting your pictures. From your pictures you appear to be a small A cup with level 2 ptosis ( saggyness ). You did not provide your chest circumference measurement, so it is diffucult to give you an opinion about size. Let's assume that you are 34 small A cup. To become a 34 DD you will need implants with a volume of , roughly, 625 cc. By the way, DD is not 'typical', but if that is your goal , it is achievable. Due to your ptosis, I would recommend a mini lift ( donut ) at the same time to give you the optimal attractive result.Always, consult with experienced board certified plastic surgeons who operate in accredited surgery center for your safety. Most importantly, check the before and after pictures to make sure that they are numerous , consistent and attractive. Check also the 'realself' reviews for positive patients experience which provides important information on the surgeons. Best of luck, Dr Widder
