Hellooooo ladies!!!! I haven't posted on here before but have been following a few journeys! So for all of my life I have had very small (non-existent) breasts! When my girlfriends were getting bra measured, I was feeling sorry for myself in padded bras! My breasts were their biggest whilst I was breastfeeding and for once in my life I could show a little cleavage. However, as soon as I stopped BF, my breasts deflated to a big, fat, NOTHING. I had my first meeting today, just to go through costing and what to expect and have a meeting with the surgeon on the 12th December. i'm SOOOO EXCITED!!! I'm getting married next year on the Greek Island of Kos, so have to look good in my wedding dress and a bikini!!!

Can anyone advise on what ccs to get to achieve a full 32DD?? I'm thinking around 400/425ccs. I don't want to be disappointed in the size...

That sounds like a great size. I went from a 30A/B to a 30F with 350, so there's no way to predict bra size (it varies with every manufacturer). It depends on the size of your ribcage and your height, mostly. The taller you are, the more your body "absorbs" the ccs, and the profile of the implant is important.

Wow, that's a good increase! Thanks for the useful info :-). What implant profile did you go with?
User Avatar

High profile. Check out my reviews. I was scared to go too large the first time so I went with 225, but for my revision 350 was perfect
User Avatar
November 29, 2014
My first doc definitely did not advise over 225 for me and even my revision doc thought I was too small for 350, but he said he would if he could on the table he would and I'm glad he did. They are often conservative in their estimates for tiny gals.

Thank you, what did did you measure before? Did your back measurement remain the same after the implants?

I just had mine done over a week ago. I was the same size breast as you and I got 400cc. I am a 32D right now but once mine fluff and drop I could easily go to a DD. Good luck with everything girl. Definitely worth every penny.

Thank you so much for the comment, that's really good to hear :-). Did you have overs or unders? What profile did you choose? I'm just worrying that my surgeon might say I don't have enough breast tissue for the size I want, but fingers crossed! I hope you're recovering well.

My PS told me 400c. Was the biggest I could go. I am only 5'3 " and 125lbs and a very small ribcage. Not much to work with really. I had under the muscle silicone HP.

What size did you start out at if you don't mind me asking? I have the consultation tomorrow so am really nervous but hopefully all will go well and I'll be able to book a date! I'm concerned that I might not have much cleavage - will having a lower profile help with that?
User Avatar
December 9, 2014
I was a 32 AA before. Lower profiles are usually for women with bigger chest area. Band size. I had to have high profile so the implants would properly fit across my chest. I A lot more cleavage now that they're settling. Your PS will know what's right for you.

Decision day tomorrow!

Hi again ladies!!! So tomorrow is the day that I will meet with a surgeon for the first time! I am VERY excited but also nervous at the same time... I'm nervous because I have an idea of what size I want to be and am wishing/hoping that he doesn't comment that I am unable to have it due to my frame/little tissue. Ideally I would like to go to a full DD which I believe I might need 400cc+ for (from 32AA!). I'm also nervous about taking my top off in front of him - more from a self conscious point of view though my fiancé will be in the same room as me!! I hope he doesn't have COLD hands!!!!!

If all goes well then I'll book an appointment ASAP - I'm starting a new job on 5th Jan and finish my current job on 22nd Dec so it would be a miracle if I was able to get an appointment during that period... Otherwise I'll have to be patient ;-).

I guess if he doesn't suggest an implant size I am not happy with, I'll see another surgeon just to get another opinion because I wouldn't want to spend out and be disappointed with the results!!

Fingers crossed xx

Hey there! Good luck. Don't be nervous. I had my surgery this morning. I am (was?!) a 40AA, and went with 400cc's. I think it looks great, though I haven't head the nerve to take off the post-surg bra yet.

HI, thanks for the comment :-). How are you recovering?

I was a 34aa before my BA. I thought I wanted 500cc to 550cc max, then I tried the 650cc samples I LOVED THEM! Booked my surgery for April then on surgery day my PS said if I want a DD I need 700cc I wasn't sure it "sounded" like allot, I trusted him. I ended us with 700cc on my right and 759cc on my left side. I AM OBSESSSSSED WITH MY BOOBS. I'm also a mom so I didn't want them to be offensive. I think they look so natural all my girlfriends live them and always tell me how natural they look. I'm 5'9 175lbs.

Hi, thanks for taking the time to comment and sorry for the super late reply! They look absolutely great!! You must be happy with going with the bigger size right?! My second surgeon allowed me to try on different sizes and I kept going bigger and bigger (boob greed!!). I'm having 420cc implants in 4 weeks time! They'll be big on my frame but not too big that they'll look too obvious and unnatural! I can't wait for the confidence boost, you must be feeling great! :)

Overdue update! SO happy!! Always have another opinion!!!!

Hey everyone! It's been a while since I last posted - Xmas period plus disappointment with first consultation... To cut a story short, I had my first consultation on 10th Dec and was so disappointed because he said that the maximum size implants he would be allowing me to have is 180cc!!! That size would never have allowed me to achieve my dream size of D/DD... To be honest, I probably would have reached a size A which would not have been worth all the money!!! He said its because I have a small breast width... I had mixed emotions at first. I was UPSET but also I convinced myself that he was probably right so almost booked!!!

Good job I didn't!!! I decided to have a second opinion so I saw a different surgeon yesterday and guess what?! He said that I can have 420cc implants!!!!!!! I AM SO HAPPY!!! If you read my first post, you'll see that I was hoping to have implants around that size... This surgeon was so much nicer and more informative. He spoke in depth about the procedure and really took the time to answer my questions compared to the first surgeon!!!

This is a dream come true! I have booked my surgery for 8th February and I have my pre-operative screening on 26th Jaunary. I can't wait!!!

So a little advice... If in doubt ALWAYS have another opinion!!!

Hey girl, thanks for the update. I was in the same boat as you. I saw three ps. My request were the same as your full breast and cleavage. The two ps said I could only have 300-400 range bc of my small chest. I would end up sm c??? Ps couldn't promise anything. Third ps I saw had thousands of great reviews and ton of pic to see the outcome. I told him I wanted full lg breast, no lg space btw breast and cleavage. He showed me ton pic, did the 3d imaging. He said 500/550 hp!!! I'm almost 2 months and I'm so happy. I'm 34dd and I'm glad I waiting and research ps. Make sure all your request are met! Good luck and keep me posted.

Hi Happy2317, thank you so much for posting! That's great news... It's so difficult not to give in and go with what they're suggesting when you're so keen and excited for the operation! It's nice to hear that the last surgeon allowed you to have bigger implants - 3rd time lucky!! They look great by the way :). I'm so desperate to have them done now, the waiting is horrible! My surgery is in exactly 4 weeks today - really hope it comes around quickly... Were you expecting to be the size you are now?
January 12, 2015
Yes my ps told me I would be in the d range. Also he told when I tried on the size 500cc they would be small bc it's under the muscle. Are you going with high profile? And what size?
User Avatar
January 12, 2015
That's good then. Yes I'm having HP implants but over the muscle as my PS believes that this is the best option in terms of weighing up the pros and cons. It means that I can have a much bigger size... There is a chance that I could experience rippling but the implants I chose experience them less compared to some other brands he showed me! I'll be having size 420cc implants and I'm a size 30A, 5'6" and 111lbs.
January 12, 2015
I think that size is going to look great on you! I wish you the best. Keep me posted :-)
January 11, 2015
Congrats on finding a PS willing to go bigger! That seems to be a challenge a lot of women your size have. I went through two other surgeons before I found the one I went with. The other two were pushing silicone and a lift, both of which I didn't want. My PS agreed saline would be fine for me, and that I could get a "good" result without a lift as long as I understood they would never been "perky". Because I was borderline for a lift. But honestly I love my breasts! They are a bit low but I didn't want the fake look. I wanted natural and that's what I got! I did 560/630cc moderate profile saline, under the muscle. I'm wider though (my implants are 14.3cm wide) and I started at a rough C cup.

Hey there, thanks for the comment! You must be so happy that you browsed surgeons because the results are fantastic!!! I can't believe how natural they look :-0. Im a little worried that mine might look a bit too fake though I have seen great results on women with little breast tissue who had overs as well... I read through your posts - how hard was raised recovery with the little ones? It's going to pain me not being able to pick up my toddler!!
January 15, 2015
Oh thank you! I had help the first 5 days. My boys are 11 months and 2. After that, it wasn't really that bad. My toddler was super easy to handle because he can get into chairs and bed on his own. My little one, I moved his little high chair onto the floor, and had him crawl over to me, then I kinda scooted him in. Same with naps and bedtime, I made him a little pallet on the floor to sleep, and my husband would put him in his crib when he got home from work (he works 3-11pm). Baths were completely up to my Hubs until around day 10. Then I started lifting the baby (20 lbs) little by little. It's easier if you can get him/her to lean against you, and you hug him/her as you stand. That way you're using your back, not your arms/chest. After week two I started lifting my toddler (33 lbs) occasionally. I still don't make a habit of it because I'm still not completely comfortable with it. Just listen to your body and don't do it if it hurts! You'll find things that work better for you as you go! Don't worry about picking up your toddler. My son was perfectly happy sitting beside me on the couch or laying his head on my lap and me playing with his hair.
