A Little Embarrasing...implant - What Size?



Recommended Posts

I think a full C..small D is right where I want to be. Thank you so much all for your help!

Don't go too big. I want to get smaller implants myself. They look more natural. I am hoping to get my implants changed next year.

IMO, how natural an implant does or doesn't look or feel has more to do with the implant design itself than it's size.

The gummi/teardrop looks real in almost any size.

I had implants put in when I was thin and 35. I was a size AA and went to a C. I'm hippy so they fit my figure. You don't want to go too big as you have to consider the pull on your back too. Many women with overly large breasts have back problems because of them. I asked my plastic surgeon for his opinion and he had the same size idea I had. Mine looked really natural (Well if perky breasts can look natural on a 35 year old woman with 3 kids). I have since lost my boobs to breast cancer (implants too :( ). I wasn't able to have reconstructive surgery at the time because I was uninsured so I'll be looking into that as soon as I've lost my excess weight.

I have always been large! Pre-sleeve I was a 42DD. In high school a full C. I am now wearing a B when it really could be smaller but refused to buy an A cup! lol

Wow, I'm a 42 DD now and although I do like them, I felt much better (back pain wise) with a C. I can only pray for results like yours. If they get down to a B i will def need a lift!

My little sister has always been the skinny one, im talking size 0-2, a 4 on a bad day. 6yrs ago sh got a boob job and went from a A cup to a C cup. She is having them redone today to correct an issue with never damage from original surgeon and have the silicone removed and having the gummies put in. She is also going up to a full D.

Good imput on all this; but I have a different question. Just starting to look into breast surgery...since I have lost 85 lbs and am now at goal, my once full breasts (D cup) are pretty deflated. I look fine in clothes and even lingerie, but once the bra comes off it's sadly sag city. Do I get a breast reduction? Implants? I just need them to look natural and not like deflated balloons. I don't know what kind of surgery I need for this. I am so happy with the success of this surgery except for this part. Any ideas?

My plastic surgeon urged me to go one size larger and I'm glad I listened ! Now that I lost 55 lbs they look beautiful perfect and are a great size ! Ask your surgeon what size he suggests as he will follow your proportion

Queen of Crop...probably a reduction/lift where they use your own tissue to give you back your firmness and give them some perk. I think I may go that route if I eventually have plastics. I am still a 38DDD after losing nearly 100#, but they definately need "picking up" if you know what I mean.

I have the exact same issue - I see the plastic surgeon on Dec. 7 for my consult. I wonder if after they take the extra skin I will need implants!

Hi there It's all new! Will you let me know what happens when you see the surgeon on 7 Dec? I have asked for an appt too but haven't heard back yet. Would love to know what they say and how much this might cost. You can email me directly at queen@queenofcrop.com

How is the scarring with the lift? I'm concerned about that. There's no way in hell I will go back up to a ddd like I was 100lbs ago! I'd like to just use my own flesh and fat so that I never have to worry about having something removed down the line. (BUT the gummies are oh so appealing, and they offer them in MX where I will go again for my plastics)

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
