Hey all!! I had my first BA 12/2014. I'm 5'3", 112lbs, and was a 32AA. Can't remember my BWD but it's around 10.5. I initially wanted a more natural look and wanted to avoid the "[RS bleep] star" look, so I went with 320 cc UHP Natrelle. My implants now look amazing, my PS did a great job! But here I am, 2 years later...boob hungry and want fuller breasts! Lol My PS said the biggest he was comfortable going was 400 cc UHP Mentor for my FIRST BA due to my BWD. But my goal look is around 450-480cc.
At my revision consultation, I discussed my goal look with my PS. He still agreed that my max is 400cc, and anything above 400cc will cause my figure to widen and I will have more side boob. But that is actually what I want. More side boob=more cleavage in bras/clothing. ???????? So right now, even though it's not what my PS recommends, I am planning to go with 455 cc UHP Mentor.
My dilemma is, should I go 455 cc or push it and get 480 cc (25 mls more)!! I'm just worried about pushing my limits with going over my BWD.
My BWD: 10.5 (I think, I'm pretty skinny)
455cc diameter (11.2)
480cc diameter (11.4)
So many small and petite girls get implants similar to my goal or even bigger and they look amazing! I'm just nervous because my goal look exceeds my BWD!! And my PS really like to stay within the BWD... ????
Has anyone gotten implants that exceeds their BWD?

I'm in the same boat as you. However I had my BA 4 weeks ago and I'm not fully healed.. but I knew I wanted bigger before the surgery. My BWD is 11.5 I believe. My ps told me 450cc hp is the absolute highest I could go. Thanks for sharing. I will be following you story!

I hope your healing is going well!!

You can go over your bwd. I went 1.5 over my bwd to get the desired cleavage I wanted. I went from 425cc to 700cc

Hey!! Congrats on booking your revision! I just had mine. I would recommend staying closer to what your PS recommends. You don't want complications or to have to re-do your surgery! Read my story :) hope it helps!!! I'll definitely follow your recovery.

Apparently some surgeons do go over your bwd when they do the pocket to create a closer cleavage or a lower crease but it might lead to complications like uniboob or bottom out boobs. So I don't know if it's recommended to do that. But since it's a second surgery and you had your implants for a while and your skin stretched it should be possible. I mean some pornstars have huuuge boobs xD I dont think they were born with that bwd it must be from having multiple surgeries going wider with more volume lol And by the way I didnt really pay attention to what my surgeon said about having too much side boob but I get it now. My boobs do go over on the sides a little bit and sometimes it makes me look really wide and bulky. Also recovery will be so smooth the second time you have no idea. I had 2 ba and it was the best decision ever to change the implants.
