Depending on the individual anatomy and desired results, estimations and measurements should be made for each patient individually after a detailed mutual conversation. The elements that form up the breast shape and size and the overall frame can be different in each person. It will be best to consult a board certified plastic surgeon who is experienced in cosmetic breast surgery in person and discuss your goals and options after a physical examination.
Generally, tobring the breast up one cup size will require between 200mL and 225mL ofvolume. Therefore, 350mL would give youa little less than two cups. Of course,this varies from person to person, depending on their body type and the amountof breasts tissue already present. Thisis an extremely difficult question to answer without seeing a photograph orperforming a physical evaluation, however. Select a Board Certified plastic surgeon to perform your breastaugmentation and schedule an in-office consultation appointment.
You would have to provide much more information than this, including your breast width, height and weight. It all depends on what your current measurements are.
Thank you for your question.There is no exact answer to this question as it will depend on your chest circumference and body habitus as also the kind of bras you will be buying. For the average body built this appears to be 2 cup sizes increase. I would advise talking to your plastic surgeon who can examine you and also give you sizes to determine the size of Implants that you need to get the desired results.Good Luck !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
There are no consistent bras or bra sizes, and more importantly, letters of cup sizes to not correlate to volume in cc's. In other words, 2+2=4, but does B+350cc=DD? (Yikes, flashbacks to math class) A lot goes into determining cup sizes. I would recommend trying on several sizers in a sample bra. Although I may recommend certain sizes for certain body/breast types, ultimately the most important factor is how YOU look and feel (not the letters or the numbers).
Since there are no fixed definitions of cup size, this is hard to answer. (Or easy. If I were to say C D or DD, I am quite sure I can find a bra of any of those sizes that would fit). Proper question is --did this implant look good when you tried on a sizer? If so, accept that as a goal, let your surgeon use that info in choosing the best implants for you.ALl the best.
If you're referring to cup size it will depend on where you buy your bra from as they are all different and there is absolutely no standard. I try to get patients to disregard cup sizes altogether, and as they try implants on go for what "fits" them. The size, character, and proportion they had in mind, and whatever cup size it turns out to be will be the right one.
Great question without a clear cut answer. You must consult with a BCBS who will get a history, examine you, and measure your breast parameters. Your surgeon will also "size" you with specific implants based on your breast dimensions. You should settle on the "look" not the number of cc's. Best to you!
Hi and thanks for the question. This comes up all the time during consultations. It's a difficult question to answer because everyone wears their bras differently. It's not like shoe size where a 7 is a 7 no matter where you get measured or what brand you wear. That being said, an implant in the 300-400 cc range is likely to change you by 1-2 cup sizes. Again, this is a ballpark, and depends on how you choose to wear bras and what brands you buy. I think it's more important to focus on what kind of look you want, rather than a specific cup size. During your consultations you should try on different size and style implants in a sports bra. Better yet, find a plastic surgeon who uses the Vectra 3D imaging system. With this system the computer creates a 3D photo of you, then shows you what you would look like with any implants you are interested in. Our patients really find this helpful in their decision making process. Good luck.Dr J
Did you try on sizes in your plastic surgeons office? Did you try them on with different bras and a few shirts? Try putting 350cc's or less or more ( measured in your own measuring cup) of rice in a vegetable bag from the grocery store. Place the bags in your bra and try on shirts, sweaters, skin suits etc. this is more important than any particular number. It's what you see and how you like it that counts, then assign a number to it.Good LuckStephen M. Davis, MD, FACSGreen Hills Plastic Surgery
The decision to move forward with a breast augmentation will depend on your individual situation. With Sickle Cell disease, a hematological consultation should always be completed prior to scheduling any medical procedure. Once you have received clearance, a breast augmentation plan can be...
Blossomxnt,Generally surgery during menstrual bleeding is not a problem, but for lengthy procedures, especially those involving liposuction, the risk of deep vein thrombosis can be elevated by supplemental estrogens, regardless of the source. That is the question to ask of your surgeon.
Incisions can feel tender for weeks and months after surgery. As long as your incisions aren't red, warmer or irritated, they should be okay.
