I was hoping to get some advice on picking the right size implant. I'm looking for a good picture to show before. I'll update soon. The choice to go more wider then "out" is definitely one that i like and not questioning. I am questioning the size in cc's. I think i need to go back for a 2nd sizing but my dr.'s office is far away and i can't take any more time off. What do i do? Thank you for your help!

Hi there, your plastic surgeon will be the best suited to help with that decision. Hopefully you should try on sizers in his office. You can do the rice test which is on Google and YouTube where you fill a stocking (panty hose) with various amounts of rice to see what size you like. Different CCs will look different on you depending on you breast size to start with, your breast width as well as your chest dimention. You are best served making time to see your surgeon and getting the right size as they'll be stuck in you for ages so you want to get it right. Failing that you could see if you can get free consultations with 'any' surgeon near you just so that you can try on sizers in their office, then you will know what you like. If you go too wide they will be too close together or they'll fall under your arm so please make sure you take time to try them on and get the right size. Take pictures to your surgeon of your desired look. All the best ;-)

I'm so excited for you! I'm getting my BA a couple days after you. I'm agree with the wider not "torpedo" hp implant. I go in on the 17th for final size appointment but I am thinking 550-575 cc moderate plus. I'm 5'9" and 155-160lbs. I can't wait to see your pics when it's all done!! Good luck!

I'm looking into trying out the next 2 or 3 sizes below the MP Silicone 575 implants after doing sooooo much research. I think the size I have decided on will be a little too big for my active lifestyle. I love to run and work out every day and feel that the size will hinder my activities. I'm an avid sailor and kayaker. And most importantly I'm constantly riding horses. Can anyone out there give me any advice in regards to their own experience with any of the activities I have mentioned. Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you!

I went for my second fitting & I think I've made the best choice but I would like any advice & opinions? The implant is a Natrelle 15 silicone moderate profile. The Dr. recommended that for the best results I go with a diameter of 14 - 15. That limited my choices in that product. The 3 choices were 1: 492cc/14 dia 2: 533cc/14.4 dia 3: 575/15 dia. Please take a look at my before & sizing pictures.
