Breast Augmentation

What Size Should I Be?

what size should I beThis question is often asked by women considering breast augmentation. Women considering breast augmentation have a couple of very important decisions to make. Since there is some variability in bra cup sizes women are often unsure about what size would look most attractive for them.

The most common transition for women seeking breast augmentation is from an A cup to a C cup. That being said, there are many ways to get there. To help eliminate some of the confusion there are a couple of things you can do to help narrow down the choices of implant size and shape and make things a bit less overwhelming. First, look at photos of women on the internet or magazines who are approximately the same size as you are (height, weight, bra size, etc.) View Our Breast Augmentation Gallery and see what kind of results were obtained after they were augmented. Notice what size implants were utilized.

Another helpful maneuver is to use a measuring cup of rice and select the precise quantity (in cc’s). Fill a woman’s stocking type sock to the desired amount. Rice is somewhat moldable and in a bra can give you some idea of volume and projection. (See Images Below.)

At our plastic surgery center in South Carolina, we offer breast augmentation to give women the opportunity to feel more attractive. We believe every woman deserves to feel beautiful and to love her body. With breast implants, our patients in Columbia and across South Carolina get to experience that sensation of beauty and self confidence.

Why Breast Augmentation Surgery?

There are a multitude of reasons why women consider breast augmentation surgery. Most women are looking to restore breast volume from the effects of pregnancy, weight loss, aging or simply, genetics. Regardless of the reason, breast augmentation should be something you choose for yourself and not to fulfill someone else’s desires or ideal image.

Dr. Kalus will thoroughly review the benefits and possible complications of breast augmentation surgery with you before any treatment plan is developed. It is also at this point where combination procedures may be suggested to maximize your anticipated results. Dr. Kalus will address all of your questions and considerations to ensure that you make an informed decision that is right for you.

In summary, there is no substitute for a consultation wherein your plastic surgeon carefully evaluates your particular history and physical findings and reviews all of your options with you, but the more informed you become both before and after your consultation, the greater the likelihood you will end up totally satisfied with your decision and final result.
