I’m 5’5” tall, 140lbs, 36 B, active and athletic build. I’m considering BA to give more volume and fullness. I’ve breastfed two kids so my breasts do sag slightly. I would like to end up with full C, small D. Can’t decide between 350, 375 and 400 cc. Which size will bring me to Full C/small D, but still look natural and not make my sagging worse?

Answer: Breast augmentation, 350-400cc Hello and thank you for your question. The best advice you can receive is from an in-person consultation. The size, profile, and shape of the implant is based on your desired breast size/shape, your chest wall measurements, and soft tissue quality. This decision should be based on a detailed discussion with equal input from both you and your surgeon. Make sure you specifically look at before and after pictures of real patients who have had this surgery performed by your surgeon and evaluate their results. The most important aspect is to find a surgeon you are comfortable with. I recommend that you seek consultation with a qualified board-certified plastic surgeon who can evaluate you in person. Best wishes and good luck. Richard G. Reish, M.D. FACS Harvard-trained plastic surgeon

Answer: Breast Implant Size? When it comes to implant size and breast size, there really is no correlation between which volume of implant will result in which cup size. There are so many factors that go into the final size and shape - your existing breast tissue, your chest width, your height/weight, the implant width/projection/ shape/volume, and your own idea about what a C or D breast size is. Without a direct examination or pictures/measurements, it is hard to say which implant volume, as well as style, would be best for your frame and goals. The best thing to do is to have a few consultations with board certified plastic surgeons and see what will work best for you. I hope this helps.
