I am a 34B and happy with my size overall. They look nice in a pushup. However, they are a bit deflated looking on their own. I would like to stay a size B or small C at most but have a more shapely look. Is it possible to improve shape without changing the size? I want to fill them out but still have a natural look in a lower sitting position. Also, is the recovery time shorter for a smaller implant? I am worried about taking too much time off of work.
Answer: Wanting a natural look You bring up some excellent points. It is absolutely possible to maintain a natural look after placing a breast implant. It sounds in your case that you are just looking to give yourself the slightest bit more fullness which can be accomplished with a modest-sized implant. To tell you specifically what size implant would require an examination of your anatomy and further discussion of your goals of course. As far as the recovery, my experience has not necessarily shown that smaller implants means easier recovery. Although for some patients this may be the case, it is not entirely reliable. Your activity restrictions will remain the same regardless of implant size chosen. Most patients are back to work by one week at the latest depending on the nature of their job. I would recommend you seek out the opinion of a board-certified plastic surgeon in your area who can guide you through your options.

Answer: A modest sized implant should give you the result you desire. Thank you for your question. First, there’s no way to add breast implants, even very small ones, and not change the volume of your breasts. Therefore, some increase in size is to be expected with even the most conservative breast augmentation. With that said, your goal of attaining a natural-looking, proportionate result is entirely possible with the proper implant choice. Meet with a board-certified plastic surgeon who can examine you and help you determine which implant will give you the subtle boost in fullness you’re wanting without looking too large or disproportionate. As far as recovery, there will be some downtime you should be prepared for, but you are correct in assuming that you can likely expect a somewhat easier and faster recovery with small implants.

Answer: Breast implant sizing Breast implants are frequently determined by Breast dimensions and patient desires. The smallest size implants range between 125-175 depending on brand, silicone, saline, and implant projection. Patients are often fit in bras with difference sizes to help determine the implant size.
