About to undergo BA but unsure of size. I am maybe a small B. I tried on sizers and to my surprise I only liked the 250 CC which is much smaller than I thought. Thinking about going back to retry them on. I'm only 5'1" and 105 lbs. was looking to only go up around a cup size. Moderate plus, is 250 CC reasonable???? Worried as everyone is saying that is way too small!

Definitely go and try on the sizers again. Don't worry about what other people think. ;) You might also want to share wish boob pictures with your doctor just to make sure you're both on the same page about your final results. Feel free to post those wish boob pictures in your review too. Keep us posted!

I have talked to a few girls who said the sizers felt huge when they tried them on too but it's much different when they are in and they will actually be smaller. I am bringing wish boob pics with me next time for sure. It is shocking how much difference there is with CC people choose and the size they end up...makes it so confusing and hard to decide. Was just wondering what girls with my stats got to go up a cup size....

Yes, you're right. The sizers can help to a point. They are heavy and huge feeling but many women say that once their "in" you, it's different. Trying them on again with a t-shirt, might still be helpful. Your wish pics are going to be your best be right now. Even if you match up exact height and weight with another person, your chest wall could be built differently which impacts the appearance of the implants. It's a very individual process. Let us know how it goes and maybe take some pics with the rice sizers on in your t-shirt.

I'm 5'1 138 lbs i'll be going with the 400CC Saline Moderate plus. I was planning a 375 but I seen reviews and a lot of ppl say that they wish they could have gone a big bigger so I just decided to go with the 400 cc.. Plus since I will be doing it under the muscle it will decrease in size a bit.

250 mod + might be a bit narrow but I don't know your width so those may fit you perfect. For me, if I wanted mod+, it would be 339cc 12.4mm but then they would be a tad bigger than my goal size.

I am about the same width as you and he recommended that I should go with sizes that have at least 12mm in diameter. But I did start with nearly nothing so he wanted the width of the implants to create a nice cleavage. You have such a great base already and I trust that your dr will pick the perfect size for you. Looking forward to seeing your updates!

I am 11.5 and got 350hp. If I went with mod+ I would have only been able to get 275 because of my bwd. Good luck :)

I'm about your size with the exception Of Im starting with less breast tissue I don't fill out an a and I chose 250 CC but I just wanted more shape but my from said I probably shouldn't go bigger than that. don't know if that helps I haven't had the BA yet so can't comment on the final result good luck :)

I think this is very personal! I chose the 275cc mod privilegie a natural look for me and so far I love it. She. I tried the sizers with a tank top over and I liked best the 250cc, my nurse explained that once under the muscle the size would be about 15-20% smaller. So if I wanted the 250 look I should definitely go with the 275. I'm 18 days post op and love them, but confess I am afraid the size will be smaller than what I see now. I am 5'6''125-7lb. Hope this helps!

I ended up choosing 300 and I'm 105 but also depends on what you start with. I'm definitely a natural look. Sometimes I wish I went bigger but usually I am conten because with certain bras they look much bigger. Kinda like having a day and evening look lol

Getting ready

I'm four days from the surgery. I was panicking all week, I suffer from occasional anxiety attacks but the past day or so have been calm. I am trying to mentally prepare myself. Also, trying to get everything ready, I am a total planner. I'm stalked up on cat food and litter, got my meds, surgery clothes ready, laundry done, sheets changed, etc. yet I still haven't decided on size and that is what causes my anxiety. I think it's either 275 or 300 as I am 5-1" and 103. I want full cleavage with out the huge busty look. I have seen so many girls with same stats turn out so different, it's scary. Hopefully I survive the next few days without too much anxiety......

One thing I was wondering about is massage. I get them regularly because I had an upper back injury and the muscles clench up and I can't turn my head. Can anyone tell me how long they had to wait? Was a chair massage possible or is there anything special they can do to accommodate me for a while? It really is a medical issue for me not just for pleasure so I am searching for ways to still get them early on....

I think yor wish boobs pic look perfect. That is what I hope for, just nice shape and more fullness. my dr recommended 250cc for me, However, I have much less breast tissue than your starting with so that will make a difference. Good luck and keep us posted :)

I went with 300, they are swollen but I am guessing they will be perfect once they are healed. I'm glad I chose bigger over the 250 for me. I feel I may have been disappointed with the smaller but all depends on frame and measurements. He actually said he wasn't sure 300 would work but that is what he ended up using.

Thanks for the information Nkramer5344. I am glad you feel like you/your PS made the right choice. I trust once the swelling decreases you will be pleased-especially in contrast to your darling tiny waist! You have my "wish" waist! LOL

Lol, thanks for the compliment, especially while I am more bloated than I have ever been! Can't wait for that to go back to normal
