    Hi! I’ve booked my surgery (not with MYA) for Nov 15th. During my consultation, my surgeon offered me 3 sizes, 250cc, 275cc and 300cc, all moderate plus profile under the muscle. She let me try on a 350cc prosthetic just in case, as that’s the maximum she would ever go on me, but we both agreed it was far too big for me.

    I’m very small and skinny up top – I have a tiny ribcage, and even though I am tall (179cm), I have a really small frame (53 kg). I’m currently measuring at a 32A, although my surgeon seems to think they’re bordering on a 32B – I disagree haha. I really want to look natural, and don’t want to look SUPER busty at all. At first, I was super set on the 275cc, but after doing some reading, I’m concerned as going under the muscle means I’ll lose some cc’s. I found the 250cc try ons a little on the smaller side, so I definitely don’t want those. I spoke with my surgeon today, and she told me that the photos I brought in to the consultation did look a bit more like how 300cc implants would look on me, she seemed hesitant though, and voiced that she’d rather use 275cc implants on my frame, also because I’m on the young side and she doesn’t want me looking disproportionate.

    I’m torn! I’m so afraid of coming out of surgery and my breasts feeling and looking too small, but I also don’t want to risk it and end up with unnatural and disproportionate boobs!

    If anyone could let me know their experience/advice, or post some pics of 275cc or 300cc implants if you have a similar frame so I could get an idea, it would be much appreciated!

    Hi,

    I would 100% go for the biggest size you’re offered because they look smaller once they’re in than when you’re trying on the sizers. I went for the biggest I could and I was worried that they’d be too big but now I think they’re tiny haha xx

    Hi I”m 5’3 and 158cm and 43 kg, i got 250 which i think are perfect for me but wouldn’t be have minded if i went a bit larger. As you’re a big taller than me I’d probably go 300.

    From all my research 25cc is approximately 1/5th of a cup and you lose that going under the muscle.

    I’m having 375 mod plus unders tomorrow, I was really scared going too big was thinking 325, but knowing I’ll lose some volume I decided I’d rather go slightly bigger and not be disappointed that they are still small 🙂

    Definitely go for the biggest they offer, I had 325cc and 350cc unders from a empty a cup and I’m a size 6 and really petite and I do love my new boobs but I wish I went a little bigger xx

    I would go for the 300cc!
    I was 34b and went for 275cc and everything went perfectly (not with Mya) only sorry I didn’t go bigger!

    @ashbottomley yours look so great! If you don’t mind me asking, what do you reckon you’ll measure? I know you’re only a few weeks post op so you probably haven’t been formally measured in a shop or anything, but if you had to roughly estimate?

    Mine were 275 high profile overs. Being mod profile your implants would be bigger in width but like other have said, you lose a bit of projection going under muscle so maybe go with a bigger one x

    Hi Carmen, I haven’t been properly measured, but I tried on bra’s and the one that fit the best was a 32E ? D and DD were too small, I was an empty 32b to start with x

    Hi Carmen,

    My stats a little different I’m 5ft 3 and I weigh 7 stone 10. My surgeon recommended me 250 cc moderate round plus I was optimistic on this as I didn’t want them to be to small but I didn’t want them massive as I’m only small! On the day of surgery he changed his mind and put 270cc in. I would recommend you go for 300cc as there not a massive difference. I’ve got boob greed now where I feel like mine don’t look that different! I’m 3 weeks post op and I still have a long way to go as my my left boob has swelled more than my right and I bruised bad on that side as you can probably see from my picture one looks bigger but my surgeon reassured me they will both settle. I was told I was 32 B before but I looked more of an A. I’m not sure what I’m measuring at yet as I need to wait until 6 weeks but I think I could possibly be a D.

    Hope all goes well❤️
