600 cc implants will increase an average woman's cup size by 3 cups. Usually 200 cc per cup size is a reasonable estimate. If you are already a D, you will be very large with these large implants. A physical exam will be necessary to determine whether you will benefit from a lift. Kenneth Hughes, MD Los Angeles, CA
I believe that if you are currently a D cup the use of 600 cc implants is inappropriate. Your breast skin over time may not support the weight of your natural breasts and implants. Dr. ES
In my opinion and even without a photo, I can say that you will be too large with 600cc implants and with implants this size comes the potential for other probems because of the weight. Consider smaller implants for a more reasonable augmentation.
It is very difficult to predict what cup size you will be after your procedure. Cup sizes are not standardized. So a D cup in one designer could be a C cup or B cup in another designer. This is the approach I use to help guide my patients with their implant size selection: I consider two factors when selecting implants for my patients: 1.Dimensional planning 2.Gel Implant Sizing system Dimensional 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. If you have decided on saline implants, then based on the gel sizer you select, we can guide you to the saline implant that achieves a similar look. Hope this helps. Dr. Basu Houston, TX
I cannot tell you what size you will be after placement of 600 cc implants. Different bra manufactors may give you different cup sizes. However, you will be MUCH larger with 600 cc implants. I tell patients to expect an increase of about 1 cup size per 150-200 cc of volume. It is important that you and your plastic surgeon decide if such a large increase is safe and desirable.
If you are truly 34D now, having 600cc implant will give you at least 3 cup size larger. The bra size will depends on the kind of bra that you purchase as well as your chest width/height. I cannot comment on whether you would need a lift or not without your photo. One thing to think about in choosing your implant size is that both the native breast and implant will sag with time. Larger breast and larger implants will sag faster.
Being that you are already a "D" cup you may go up two or even 3 cup sizes but this is just an approximation, but they will look different on patients of different builds.
There is no way to give you any idea what size you would be from your limited description. If you have a very wide base breast then it will look much different then if you have a narrow base breast. Supply photos and measurements.
Without knowing what your breasts look like, it's hard to say exactly. However, having said that I think 600cc is very large and would caution you about using such large implants. Remember the bigger you go, the more they weigh and the further south they will head on you. Implants don't defy gravity, they add weight, which will stretch the skin. Think long term when getting implants.
This is a difficult question to answer without breast measurements, assessment of skin laxity, and photos. 600cc does tend to be a large implant, but some taller women can handle it. An in-person consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon would be the best.
