Hi everyone,

I want to start with thanking everyone for sharing their stories here. It has helped me with so many questions I've had about breast augmentation.

I'll start with a little bit about myself: I am 5'3 ft tall, weight 110 lbs and currently a 32A cup but won't fully fill a 32A bra if I lose weight. I am looking to go from an A cup to a C cup. I will be getting silicone gel, round, smooth implants moderate plus profile and it will be a periareolar incision. I've wanted a breast augmentation since I knew my breast were not going to get any bigger which was a long time ago. I am super excited and cannot wait for my procedure.

My pre-op appointment is scheduled to be in less than a week on 9/22/16. During this appointment is when I will be committing to an implant size. During my consultation back in July my surgeon suggested I go with a size between a 250cc and 275cc however I don't recall telling him I wanted a C cup so his suggestion may be different during my pre-op. I know he will be honest and tell me if my expectations of a C cup are realistic. After my consultation I did a lot more research on sizes and so I can't wait for my pre-op to revisit size options with my surgeon. I don't remember where I read that 236cc will get someone like me 1 full cup. This would mean that about 475cc would get me to a C cup. However, I think 475cc would be extremely large for me because I have a very small frame and I want by breast to look as natural and proportionate as possible.

A little bit about my surgeon: I am going to Dr. Rosenstock who was highly referred to me by a friend whose breast he's done. He is very much into producing very natural breast-like results. His before and after photos were amazing and I could not tell that the afters had been enhanced - they were just bigger. Plus, I know of a few women whose breast he's done and their results are amazing.

I may post some photos at some point during the week and do an update after my pre-op.

Till then!

Hi---I am similar to you. Was a 32A before and got 250cc moderate plus silicone implants. I too wanted to be a nice sized C cup. I'm petite so was concerned about going too big but also concerned that I might be disappointed with such a small implant size. However, I trusted my doctor and am SO happy so far with the result. I am a little over two weeks post op. Let me tell you the 250 goes far on a small person. I haven't gotten professionally measured yet, but am measuring myself at a full C and actually bought a few 32C bras at VS that are too tight and small so might possibly be a 32D in their sizing. They are the perfect size and look like what I'd look like naturally if I was well-endowed.

Hi, thank you for letting me know regarding the 250cc. What type of bras did you wear the first couple of weeks after surgery?
September 19, 2016
I got the Fruit of the Loom front close bras from Walmart--those are great for sleeping. They run small around so I got a 36. They're a bit big but the 34 would likely be tight right after surgery. Also Victoria's Secret has lounge bralettes that I bought a few of in size small--those have been great as well. Good luck with your surgery! Hope all goes well.

So glad to read your comment because I was also a little nervous about getting 255 cc and 300 cc . I am 5' 5" and 113 lbs and 34a looking to get to a full c, and my surgeon recommended 250cc and 300 cc on the other side to balance.

The size is the most difficult thing I've had to pick out. This is why I am showing my PS photos of the look I want, and def don't want to be a cup D. Full C would be the biggest I feel I would be comfortable with. I will def do update after my surgery and post the cc I end up with. My PS did say 300 would be the biggest he would suggest for me. From what I've read on realself it seems like the ccs you are looking for will most likely get the size you want according to your measurements. Best of good luck, and I hope you get what you want!

What size did u end up avin and do u regret anythin

My bra size is a 32D which I didn’t want to be however my breast look proportional to my body and look like a C cup. I’m a small in bralettes. Due to the anatomy of my rib cage and positioning of my breasts I have more underboob. If I choose to go braless my breast do not look big at all. Weird how that works. I’ve found the VS Dream Angels lightly lined bras with lace to be one of the sexiest looking bras for me. Looking back at when I tried on the implants preop with a shirt on that is exactly the look I got. I could’ve gone a bit smaller to get the C cup but I also gained close to 10 pounds since surgery not related to surgery so maybe my size would go down if lose weight. To your question, I could’ve gone a bit smaller but idk if that would’ve gotten me the C cup I was looking to get or if I would’ve liked it because I love how they look now with and without clothes on.

Pre-Op

Had my pre-op on Thursday. My surgeon suggested I go with 250cc or 275cc to achieve the look I want. Before showing him pictures of the look I want he thought Moderate+ would be good however on Thursday he measured me the width of my breast and now we are going with high profile Mentor silicone implants. Turns out my bust is very narrow and if I go with the 275cc moderate+ the ladies will look very strange and be placed more to the side (please nooo). After checking out so many pics showing high profile on realself I feel more comfortable about the high profile. My biggest concern I told my PS is I don't want my breast to look like 2 melons on my bust, and I don't want them to be the first thing to enter the room. I feel we are both on the same page.
During the pre-op visit I tried on some 250cc, 275cc and 300cc sizers. Only took pics with the 250cc and after checking them out when I got home I realized they look a bit smaller than what I am hoping for. I definitely plan to go back to my PS's office before surgery to try on 275cc and 30cc again and take lots and lots of pictures.

Hi- I see we have similar stats. I am 5' 4" and 113 lbs also 34a and looking to become a full c. My date for surgery is October 14. Getting memory shape (teardrop) silicone implants, similar size to you. I bet you're getting excited as tote surgery is coming up!
September 29, 2016
Yes, I am super excited! Only 8 days to go. Have you had your pre-op apt?

I have! I went on Monday. We did the digital imaging, picked my implant (memory shape) and did the sizers. He came up with 300 cc on right and 255 on the left. I can't wait for my surgery date. Wishing you the best of luck!
