Measuring implant sizes! Started by: Skye

don’t forget to take into account your existing size. Your surgeon will also be looking at you rib width and structure and also how much tissue you have etc to see what size you can accommodate without getting too much rippling etc. Tell them what you want though and they will tell you what they recommend. I was offered max 400cc but when I tried on the sizer it felt way too big for me. Ive gone for 350cc. It was explained to me that 25cc is approximately a teaspoon bigger and 125-150cc is approx. 1 bra size.

150cc is the equivalent to roughly a cup size – depending also on the size (width) of your frame.
Plus add in your own breast tissue.

So a size 6 girl with a B cup breast would get a lot more size from (let’s say) a 300cc implant, than a size 12 girl with an A cup.

Have you made rice sizers to try the different sizes that you are thinking of?.

The USA surgeons say that a C cup is approx 500cc of TOTAL volume.
Meaning if you already had 200cc of your own (A cup) and added 300cc to it – you should be a C cup. (150 x 2 = 2 cup sizes)

However implant profile/and overs/unders/existing breast tissue/ribcage all effect the end result.

Hope this helps.
