Understanding Implant Sizes
Breast implant sizes are measured in cubic centimeters (cc), not cup sizes. While it’s natural to think about the bra size you want, implants should be chosen based on your body’s proportions. Factors such as your chest width, breast tissue, skin elasticity, and overall frame play a big role in determining what size will look natural and balanced. A consultation will include trying on “sizers” to give you a realistic idea of how different volumes will look.
Types of Breast Implants
There are two primary implant types: saline and silicone. Saline implants contain sterile salt water and can be adjusted during surgery, making them a versatile option. Silicone implants, which are made with a cohesive gel, often feel softer and more natural to the touch. Another option is the gummy bear implant, a form-stable silicone implant that maintains its shape even if the shell breaks.
Implants also come in various shapes, including round or teardrop (anatomical). Round implants look fuller at the top of the breast, while teardrop implants mimic the natural slope of the breast. Additionally, you’ll need to choose between smooth and textured surfaces, each with unique benefits that depend on your anatomy and goals.
Finding the Right Fit for You
Ultimately, the “best” implant isn’t about the largest size or trendiest shape; it’s about harmony with your body. The right implant should enhance your natural figure, boost your confidence, and feel comfortable. Dr. Pearl will guide you through measurements, lifestyle considerations, and long-term expectations to ensure that your results look natural and align with your personal goals.
