A bra cup size doesn't tell you what implant size you need. Different brands size differently, and what matters is your body proportions and the look you actually want. Bring reference photos to your consultation and do the sizing on the table, not before surgery.
I just want a full C. That's all I want from my breast augmentation. I want a full C. I get that so many times, and it's great. It's a good starting point. I wish there was a universal golden bra that was in the British Museum that everybody used that's a standard, but there isn't. And every company is different. You go to Victoria's Secret, they're gonna, you know, typically upsize you because there's a marketing attempt there. So, you know, what I recommend instead is actually get pictures. Pictures worth a thousand words. So I say, okay, what does a full C look like to you? And then show me a picture. Let's get on your phone, let's get on Instagram. What does that look like to you? And then I typically use that for inspiration when it comes to sizing. A lot of surgeons don't like to do that because they don't want to overpromise. I don't think it's hard if you're pretty clear with patients on this is a size goal, this is what we're trying to achieve in terms of size, like breast width versus shoulder width proportions. For me, it's very helpful. I spend the extra time to do the on-table sizing. A lot of other surgeons make you sign ahead of time what your implant size is going to be, and I think it's a little bit risky. It's just like buying shoes that you can't return, but you haven't been able to even try them on. Let me know in the comments if you've had breast augmentation and how you came up with the perfect size.
