Yes I’ll admit it, my boobs are nothing to proud of, they’re A cups and they’ve always been small. They have a really weird torpedo shape so I’m thinking of getting a boob job when I get older but I’m not sure what’s a good size to bump up to. I was thinking a C but that might be a little too big, but I don’t want to pay all that money for just a B cup so I’m not really sure >.<
well DDs are the largest commonly available bra size in sexy styles.
and you don’t mention your height, weight, etc.
going up 2 cups is the LEAST I’d consider… the cost, pain, recovery is the same regardless (unless we’re talking SUPER HUGE).
you mention them being “torpedo shaped”… this could mean either you’ve just got cute perky breasts sometimes referred to as “puffies” which a lot of guys like… OR… you could have tubular breasts… and correcting tubular breasts could make it covered by insurance since it’s to correct a congenital defect vs enhancement ;-}
something to consider… the most common post procedure complain is “I didn’t go big enough”.
first get a proper bra measurement… 70% of US women are wearing the wrong bra size.
http://www.victoriassecret.com gives good clear instructions with pictures.
then figure out how big you REALLY want to go.
to increase a cup the american society of plastic surgeons says requires on average 189ml of fill.
so if you’re say a perfect 34A (34band right under, and 35 right over the top) to go to a 34D (a good compromise, yea they’re big, yea they’ll attract attention, and yes you’ll feel great flaunting them… but nobody who you’re not on intimate terms with can prove their store bought)…
my EX was a natural 34F/G so yes natural breast do go that big… and she could have actually stood a set of implants (to take up the slack of breastfeeding 4 kids) yes it would have made bra shopping more difficult… but I’d have paid the price for customs (if she wasn’t psycho… she literally cut the phone lines, then tried to burn the house down with me in it, luckily the fireplace lighter she was using needed a new lighter)
but the math…. to go from a 34A to a 34D (assuming even measurements) you’ll want to add 3 cups… 3 * 189 = 567….
now assuming salines (still the most common in the states) that would work out to 525ml size implants, filled to their “maximum recommended fill” of 550ml plus about 40ml of so called “overfill” to avoid rippling etc.
you’ll swell to about a DD but it’ll go down over a month/6wks
and no more sleeping bra-less… both post surgery (just to hold everything in place while you heal) and afterward to fight the affects of gravity… that’s WHY big breasted women sag more as they age.
if it’s going to be a romatic evening it’s just a different bra to bed… afterward you can change to your normal support/sport bra.
BREAST FAT TRANSFER- Natural Breast Augmentation ETERNAMD
Is it possible to be underweight with size 34-D breasts?
If a woman with a BMI of 17.0 has large breasts with no implants, is she still underweight, or does the all the fat in her breasts negate that?
yeah course she’s still underweight! That’s like saying ‘is she not underweight cos she has a big head’ it would be unusual though for either people to be underweight, as usually they wouldn’t have much boobage…
Well I got the Silicone Implants because I know they are most popular, feel more natural, and now I heard proven to be safe. But I still think the goverment could come back in years to come and say they are not safe. It scares me and I think maybe I should have Saline. I want to know some of others thoughts on this.
Quick question to help you figure it out. Saline is well salt water. Sillicone is a posion to the body. I’m not bashing you at all don’t take it that way. Yes they have made sillicone safer in these last few years but the unexpected can always happen If I had to have fakes which I don’t think I would need to. I would go with saline. If you want to read a real horror story about Sillicone implants google ricki Lake. She was sick for a number of years because of a Leak from sillicone. I would want something more natural installed If you will.
does anyone know some one who has been through radiation.for breast cancer?
I am going in for reconstruction on one breast I had radiation I will be using a silicon implant no natural tisue.. I am aware there is a50 percent chance it will have trouble healling among other things can someone talk with me who has had this experience or seen someones breast after this.
I have personal experience with this. Unfortunately – it wasn’t a positive experience.
In 2004 I had a lumpectomy and radiation treatments on my right breast.
In 2007 I had a recurrence of cancer in the same breast and had a mastectomy. Our first attempt at reconstruction was with a tissue expander and implants.
Unfortunately, I developed a severe staph infection and the tissue was not healing (due primarily to the weakness of the tissue from the radiation in 2004). I had to have the expander removed in another surgery and wait for complete healing of the mastectomy site before I could again try reconstruction.
Several months later I returned to the hospital for reconstruction – this time we had to do a procedure that involved taking healthy tissue from elsewhere. I had the Latissimus flap reconstruction done (this where they take muscle and tissue from the back and use it to form a pocket into which a breast implant can be placed).
This reconstruction has been a success. It takes awhile for the implant to settle in and look right under clothes or feel right in a bra – but I’ve been back in a bathing suit this summer – so it’s done well.
