At Cosmetique Cosmetic Surgery Center in Miami, we understand the need to make an informed choice that fits with your body type and aesthetic goals. Dr. Robert Hunsaker, a board-certified plastic surgeon, specializes in facial and body cosmetic surgery. He has spent over 25 years performing breast augmentation procedures and offers expert advice to every patient.
Understanding Implant Sizes
Breast implants are measured in cubic centimeters (cc), not cup sizes. They commonly range from 150cc (an increase of approximately one cup size) to 800cc (extra-large implants, equivalent to more than three to four cup sizes).
The volume you choose will influence the final appearance of your breasts. However, you must also consider factors beyond size:
- Body frame and chest width: Your natural body structure plays a crucial role. A petite frame may not be able to comfortably support larger implants, while a broader chest might accommodate them more easily.
- Lifestyle and activity level: Active individuals or athletes might prefer smaller implants to maintain comfort during physical activities.
- Skin elasticity: Your skin’s ability to stretch can affect how implants settle and appear over time.
- Desired aesthetic outcome: Whether you’re aiming for a subtle enhancement or a more dramatic change, your personal preference is paramount.
The Importance of Professional Guidance
A consultation with a qualified plastic surgeon – like Dr. Hunsaker – is crucial before selecting your ideal breast implant size. This appointment provides an opportunity for him to assess your body frame and skin elasticity.
Dr. Hunsaker uses imaging tools and sizers to help you get a sense of how different implant sizes will look on your body. This makes it easier for you to make a confident and informed decision.
