Virginia Breast Augmentation Blog

When it comes to choosing your breast implant size of your breast implants, dump the alphabet soup—the As, Bs, Cs (and ccs)—and focus instead on the components of breast implants that will add up to the look you desire.

As you already know, bra cup sizes are frustratingly imperfect measurements that vary by bra type and manufacturer. And while cubic centimeters—the volume amount used in breast implant sizing—are precise, they can also be misleading; 400 cc breast implants on a woman with a compact stature and thin breast tissue will not look the same as 400 cc breast implants on a full-figured woman with substantial breast tissue.

When using breast implant visualization options such as photos, case studies and breast implant samples, consider what you like and don’t like.

Do you want a visible outline? Do you prefer a natural contour or a rounded shape? Do you want a subtle increase in size or an obvious augmentation? Will your desired new size fit your lifestyle?

The experienced, board-certified plastic surgeons at the Austin-Weston Center for Cosmetic Surgery can answer your breast surgery questions and present you with a wide range of breast implant options so you can find the type, size, shape and profile that will leave you happy with your new appearance and limit your frustration to bra shopping.
