Breast Implants Size

Size. That the mayor reason for most of women to have breast augmentation, because women want to increase the size or have the breasts more proportionate to the rest of the body. For some women, deciding to have breast augmentation is the easiest part of the process. Otherwise, choosing the right size breast implant can be a little dificult. This can be very distressing, because women tend to obsess over getting the perfect size, which is completely understandable. Some women worry about going too big, while others worry about not going big enough.

One important thing is having realistic expectations regarding size is a must. You would not want to attempt to go too large, because doing so could lead to serious complications, which will result in more surgery, more recovery time, and last, but certainly not least, more money. A good doctor will not push the limits of your body by trying to force a too large breast implant into your body.

Although bra cups are sized A, B, C and up, breast implants are not. breast implant are measured in cubic centimeters (cc).

The thing you have to keep in mind is that your idea of a particular cup size and your surgeon's idea of a particular cup size may vary.  Additionally, going into a consult and saying you want "x" amount of cc's is also not wise.  If the surgeon agrees to give you the amount you request, you may wind up larger or smaller than you had intended.

Breast implant sizes for both saline and silicone range from 120cc to 850cc. To give you some basis on which to compare sizes, the difference in volume between a 300cc implant and a 360cc implant is just two ounces.

For any patient there is obviously a range of implant volumes that would be considered natural-appearing, and a volume at which the upper pole of the breast begins to look very unnatural. While one patient may seek an augmentation that is 'perfectly natural', another may be interested in a result that is more on 'the full side of natural', and many patients do ask that the largest implant volume be selected that does not produce an unnatural fullness in the upper pole.
