Ok guys, please help. I am 5'5 maybe 5'6 and weigh 150 pounds. I chose to go with allergen 450cc hp. Originally I was gonna go with 425cc mentor hp but I wanted bigger. The size I normally wear is a 36b but when I got measured with the doctor I was apparently wearing wrong size and I am a 36c. I am worried that maybe 450cc would be too small for my body frame and won't give me the look that I like (big and semi fake but not too fake looking). But doctor says I cant go bigger because of my breast tissue, idk why because I've seen smaller girls go bigger than me. Is my doctor being too conservative? Do you guys think that 450ccs would give me my desired look? Is there anyone on here with my same body frame and measurements that I can compare myself too? Also, i am 23 years old and I haven't had any kids. I just hope I'm not disappointed after my surgery because I rather be bigger than smaller.

I don't know a size yet as I'm still only 7 days post op. My PS said I'd be a D/DD cup when they have settled in. I was an A cup before so that's quite a lot bigger for me x

I got 450cc hp allergen you can check out my pics. We have the same wish pics seriously lol. I feel 450cc will look great on you. You have more Breast tissue than I did so you'll end up with something along the lines of our wish pics :)

I'm 5'5" and 150 and I went bigger, 625 ccs. You can check out my pics if you like. I didn't have as much to start with, barely 34B, so maybe 450 would give you similar results?

Hi guys! I can't wait for my boobies to get here, I feel like a little kid on Christmas. Today I had a melt down because I keep thinking I'm gonna be disappointed with the 450cc. I really am praying that I will be very happy with my result. I'm hoping for a ddd. I feel like my body can carry that size perfectly without them looking to crazy. Doctor says I'm a 36c but I typically wear a 36b and it fits just fine. Ugh the struggle, I just can't stop thinking that 450cc is to small. I wouldn't be as concerned about the 450cc if I knew they weren't gonna look smaller because it's gonna be under the muscle. So I would probably look like I got 400cc or less. Hopefully I'm just overthinking it. Monday just hurry up please. I don't think I've ever been this excited about a Monday EVER lol. Here are some more before pics.

Always always go a little bigger than imagined especially because of the weight factor. I hope this helps good luck on your surgery!

Hi! I would love to do 500cc profile but my doctor is not letting me. He says I don't have enough tissue. On the day of the surgery I will ask him to try and see if he can do it regardless just to see if it will fit. If not then the 450cc will do, the size is like two tablespoon difference. The only reason I would want the 500cc is to account for the 10-15% lost since its under muscle. Did you do under the muscle? And if so do you feel like they got noticeably smaller? Also, what's your height and weight?

I went over the muscle as needing boderline lift. I'm 5" 6 . 190 lbs thick girl hips small waist. It's smart to ask he can just put what he can fit because it look different once in the body.
