How can you tell the official size of a breast/implant?
Kaljinyu asked:
I know that surgeons can’t recommend a size to breast augmentation patients, but if a patient were to come in with a size in mind Say, 34C, how would the surgeon know how big to make them exactly? Alternatively, if a patient comes in with some kind of visual aid as to what she wants, could the doctor then tell what the name of the size is?

To put it simply… “A surgeon has an implant before them, how do they know what its size name is?”
Both of these answers so far answer my question, but now a new question has arisen from these answers.
They know how much cc’s of saline it will take to reach a certain size, but how do they know exactly what a size is named exactly?
Say someone starts with a 34AA, and they want an augmentation to a 34C. Do they know the actual measured difference between the two? If so, how do they know?
They measure the number of cubic centimeters of fluid (saline or silicone) that it will take to equal that size. And yes, they can tell you by looking. They deal with ALOT of breasts lol.
Actually, the doctor can recommend a size based on the size breasts you already have and the size of your frame and other factors. The implants themselves are measured by cubic centimeters of the fluid in them. Obviously, the more cc’s an implant has , the larger the size and the weight. Also, dont go in with a specific size in mind. The doctor should have a bra with pockets in the cups to put in different sized implants so you can “try on ” different sizes and get a better idea of what would look best on you, not somebody else in a picture. Also, dont be scared, i had zero pain with mine and was up and about in a couple days.
