I was a small 32B & wanted a small natural looking bump up to a full C or D. I went to about 5 consultations in Santa Barbara, all the doctors suggested a size WAY larger than I thought appropriate, most were around 450 cc. I opted for a much smaller implant than suggested & decided on smooth round moderate profile 275 cc. I was shown 3D imagine which made it look like a 275 implant would do next to nothing to make my chest larger. Against my doctors suggestions, I went the small route anyways. It is PERFECT! Everyone in the office told me I would want bigger when all was said & done but I am so happy with the size. 32D is perfect proportion to my body (32D breast, 25 waist, 36 hips) & I'm so happy to not have to search for bras in my size. I choose Dr. Mackenzie because he had great reviews & offered incision through armpit. It was important to me not to have any scarring visible on or under my breasts. I think he did a good job. There is a bit of asymmetry, which the office staff dismissed at check up visit (which was frustrating). It' so small of a difference though, nothing noticeable through clothing & no on else has really noticed until I've pointed it out.
I raised the full cost of my procedure

Good for you for getting several doctor consults and for sticking with the implant size you wanted. I'm so happy for you! And you're right, you have a ton of choices in the lingerie department!

Could you please clarify what profile you went with (moderate, moderate plus, high)? Your results are absolutely gorgeous. I started with very similar stats as yours (5'6", 32b, 142lbs but I'm very lean and muscular due to crossfit). Your post is mainly what helped me choose my implant size. I went with 275cc round silicone subglandular. Surgery was four days ago. I can ply home my results are as beautiful as yours. Thanks for the brace posts.
