Breast Augmentation – Bra Sizes

Everyday I spend a lot of time discussing implant size with patients. Bra cup sizes vary according to the manufacture. Patients need to know that implant size that they see on the Internet or on another patient may not achieve the same result for them. There are many variables including preexisting breast volume, chest wall shape and tissue elasticity. I use a dimensional method to determine optimal implant size which considers the patients height, weight and body frame. I measure the diameter of the breasts, thickness of the tissue and the tissue mobility. By doing this properative analysis, I am able to achieve the most optimal results.
