scared 225cc will be to big Started by: sophie

Hi Sophie

Don’t panicccc!! 🙂

I am just about to have my second go at breast implants…my first procedure i was the same as you, really worried about having big boobs as thats not what i wanted, i wanted the more natural look.
I have 260cc unders (i went with a different clinic previously so sizes were different) and i went from a 32B to a 32C.

As soon as i woke up from my last suregery i was so disappointed with the results!…There were still so small, so much so people didnt even recongnise that id had the procedure done!

I’m now having my second go on Monday and I’m having either 375cc or 400cc. Sounds drastic but… originally i decided to go for 325 or 350cc but they reccomend an increase of a minimum of 100cc to notice a difference. I want to be a cup size bigger than i am now.
I was really worried this time still so i went back to see my surgeon and told him i was so worried about sizing especially as this was my second go. i took LOADS of pictures with me to show him how i wanted to look and he advised me to order slightly bigger implants. my surgeon has ordered me 2 sizes so he can play and decide on the day which i think is great. makes you feel like they actually care about what you look like as opposed to my clinic before.

If you’re really worried go back and see your surgeon, my surgeon was so helpful and put my mind a rest. Im not sure on your top size or how tall you are but 225 unders sounds perfect for a B/C cup.

i warn you, like other girls have said on here, its best to got slightly bigger than too small as you do definitely get boob envy.

hope this has helped you in some way. its the worst not knowing what the outcome will look like! 🙂

125-150 cc is supposed to be a cup size so 225 shouldn’t make you too big i’ve gone for 400 cc and i’m starting at a 34b but hoping to have DD am going under the muscle. So don’t panic they won’t be too big! xxx

Hi Sophie,

I’m 5’3″ and around 7.5 stone with a very petite frame. Like you I was very worried about going to big as I knew it would have looked ridiculous on a girl with my small frame. So I went for the 225 implants as advised by my surgeon as I was a 32 A and wanted to achieve a natural 32 C cup. I’m only 1 week post op so couldn’t tell you my size as of yet but i’m filling out a 34C sports bra which is infact pretty tight. Extremely happy I went with the 225 though and I appreciate it when people say go with the bigger size offered but I am more than happy with my 225’s. What are your stats if you don’t mind my asking?

Hey sweetie, my surgeon offered me maximum 250cc but advised he wouldn’t be happy going with that size as they’d stretch my skin that extra bit more. He also made a valid point that in 10 years time when I need to get them changed i would probably need to increase the size slightly due to filling the stretched skin etc so best to start of small. I think you’d be happy with the 225. The one thing I will say being so small if you go too big it could cause serious back pain/trouble in the future. When is your op Hun? X

I would say it looks more or less the same as when trying on the implant however at the moment there’s still a lot of swelling and the muscle needs to loosen. I went for mod plus under the muscle. Apparently they get a little bigger as the swelling goes down as the muscle relaxes so it isn’t pushing tightly down on the implant. The best advice I can give you is to go with whatever you feel most comfortable. Don’t let anyone try and sway your decision as ultimately it’s your body and you want to be happy with the end result. It’s very exciting when you wake up and realise you finally have the boobs you have always wanted! Once the swelling has gone down I will put a before and after photo up of mine to help reassure you 🙂 x

@channonleiighxo Hi channy. I am a 30aa and my surgeon has recommended 250cc max for me for the same reasons as you say. I am worried they will be too small as I wanted to be a natural c cup. Do you have ant photos at all?! Are you happy with the size? X

Hi channy,
I am similar stats, 5,3 and about 7st 10 i wear size 6/8 clothes and a 32A, i have been offered 250/275/300cc HP unders, i was thinking to go dead in the middle with 275 but really struggling to decide as i dont want them to be to big, my op is in 2 weeks, i hope u dont mind but i have added you to see your results x

Hi I had my op on Friday and I had 275cc unders I’m 5 ‘1 size 6 small frame I was so scared incase 275cc was too big for me as when I tried implants on pre op it did look really big I felt going under the muscle u do lose abit of size I’m no where near as big as I tried on……..but I’m now 3 days po and so so pleased I didn’t go any smaller perfect for my body frame my surgeon said he would give me 275cc Hp unders natural look which I fully put my trust in him and my experience was amazing….I had so many sleepless nights due to worrying about sizing but I’m 100% happy have my strapping of Thursday which I will c them fully good luck what ever u decide to do xxxxx

Hi girls,
Having read ur messages I’m now even more uncertain of what size I should go for.
I’m 5ft 6 and size 10 in the winter and an 8 in the summer lol.
I had my consultation yesterday and was advised to go for either 300 or 325cc mod+ overs .
I’m currently a 34b and also wanted a natural looking full c cup. I really don’t want to look too big and am now thinking maybe even 275cc would be enough.

I just don’t want them to look too big and out of proportion with the rest of me. I think I may stick with the 300cc then, anything will be better than what I have now lol.
Anyone else had 300cc’s over the muscle that they can share a pic of??? It’s so hard to visualise what they might look like as the sizes seem to look different on everyone!

Just do the rices and get a feel for it xx

I am a 30AA atm and im scheduled for my procedure on 28th i wanting a ful C cup however reading some of the comments i dont think ill achieve it also behind the 3rd muscle, 250cc is max surgeon suggested for my frame as im 5ft 8inchs and weight roughly 7st ish ive breastfeed all three of my boys happy with that and wanna future children, im now indecisive on whether i need to push for 300/350cc as i want it to be worth it also

I’m 5ft 2, 50kg with a 32 inch chest. Was originally a 32A. My surgeon and myself were not sure between 250 and 300cc. He ordered both and I agreed to let him decide in surgery which looked best. I’m a doctor and didn’t want an obviously fake look for fear of affecting patients/colleague relationships. In the end we went 250cc. I’m just coming up to 2 weeks post op and they look great. They went under the muscle to achieve a more natural look and were tear drop. He said he doesn’t think he’d of got the 300 in due to my petite frame and how tight my muscles were. 250 looks a fantastic natural size on me, I’m happy with what we went for
